Help: XSL to PCL

[Everson Rogério <ev...@yahoo.com.br>]

Hello
I am using a Java class to generate PDF from an XSL and XML. Now, I need to generate PCL with these XSL and XML files.

I read something about this in Graphic Library "fop" org.apache.fop.render.pcl, but I'm not succeeding.
Can anyone help me? Send examples?

Note that there is an image in the PDF generated, so I'm using the tag <fo:external-graphic>. and works good!

Thanks

Well one of the first things you would need to do is configure the pcl
renderer in the config file.

http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.95/configuration.html#pcl-renderer

 

and be aware of the restrictions 

 

http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.95/output.html#pcl

 

 

Kindest regards

If you are having a problem, then describing the problem would be 
helpful, e.g. if you get an error then posting the stack will help 
others to guide you.

The FOP distribution includes an example of how to render XML+XSL to PDF 
from a Java application in 
fop\examples\embedding\java\embedding\ExampleXML2PDF.java.

Changing this example to generate PCL is a simple one line change to the 
following line:

Fop fop = fopFactory.newFop(MimeConstants.MIME_PDF, foUserAgent, out);

Changing it to:

Fop fop = fopFactory.newFop(MimeConstants.MIME_PCL, foUserAgent, out);

Hi Everson,
I tried to convert XML --> PDF. at first time I also failed. reason for the
failure was I had used wrong fop.jar library.
when I have added the correct fop.jar it worked well. so check that you are
using the correct fop.jar library.
