[Mihael Knezevic <m....@porta.de>]

hi,

has someone been successfull on embedding fop in his/her own application.
i'm trying but it doesn't work. there are some error messages:

[ERROR]: Logger not set
[DEBUG]: using SAX parser org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser
SystemId Unknown; Line 0; Column 0; Couldn't create PDF file.
File "myfile" not found.

but when use fop on the same xml file, it works.

any idea?

and perhaps someone can enlighten my on what SystemId is?

thanx.

sorry for me being so ignorant. my problem was the relative URI.

that's no answer to my question, but as the error doesn't appear it doesn't
really matter cause i don't have any time for research the beauty and
wealth of xsl-fo and fop. i'm just happy it is working.

thanx for all your help.

A lot of people have embedded FOP successfully.
You'll have to supply some more information to get a useful
answer.
Your problem has probably something to do with resolving
relative URIs. If you use the command line FOP application,
the current working directory is used for resolving relative
URIs. This means, if you simply give a file name, the file
will be searched in the current directory.
The servlet engine probably has some other CWD, so it won't
find the file.
Try to specify the absolute pathname of the file, like
  /my/dir/myfile or C:\my\dir\myfile

If you don't know what your SystemId is, how should I?
