A FOP Renderer based on Java Printing System and Grapics2D
The Java Printing System enables applications to:
- Print Java 2D graphics, text and images.
- Control document-composition functions such as soft collating, reverse
order printing, and booklet printing.
- Invoke printer-specific functions such as duplex (two-sided) printing and
stapling.
- Print on all platforms, including Windows and Solaris.
- Data stream generation by platform printer drivers.
My renderer, based on the Java Printing System and Graphics2D: pure Java
does a perfect job. I will send sources, classes, documentation on request
to my e-mail address.
__________________________________________
Highlights
- Operation: silent or page/printer dialog
- direct printing or output to file
- Supported printers, data streams: PCL, AFP, Postscript, Text, PDF
(PDFWriter required)
- Precise output control by setting page/printer properties of drivers
- Several renderings per run
- Image Formats: JPEG, PNG, GIF (with JAI Image I/O Tools 1.0-rc also BMP,
TIF)
- SVG Support
- Controls per print job
o Destination file
o Media sizes, bins, trays
o Page orientation
o Sides: simplex/duplex handling
o Print quality
o Chromaticity: color/monochrom
o Copies
o Finishings
o NumberUp, Imposition
__________________________________________
Test Environment
- Win2K
- FOP 0.20.5rc2
- Java 1.4.1
- JAI Image I/O Tools 1.0-rc
- Batik-1.5
__________________________________________
Sample Printer Configuration:
// double-slash is comment
// debug: lists system printer and and fontinfo
debug
// silent: dont prompt page/printer dialog
silent
// destination: "print to file"
destination=file:///C:/fop-0.20.4rc/AnyExtensions/print2D.txt
//copies=1
// printer: select an installed printer
printer=hp psc 700 series
//printer=HP LaserJet 5M
//printer=HP LaserJet 4/4M PS
//printer=Generic / Text Only
//printer=Acrobat PDFWriter
// attributes: specify JPS attributes
// PORTRAIT=102 ISO_A4=414
attributes=102 414
// SVGimageResolution: the renderer has SVG rasterized to the available area
size at this resolution
SVGimageResolution=300
// adjustPrinterResolution: scale at resolutions 72 or 150 or 300 or 600 to
fit the available area most closely
adjustPrinterResolution
// map standard fonts to platform fonts
HelveticaMap=Arial
TimesMap=Times New Roman
CourierMap=Courier New

hmm. Am I getting blind in my old age - I don't see an email
address in your post; for that matter I don't even see a signature ;-)
Have you considered folding your work into FOP ?

Hey J.U.
Sounds very interesting. I'd love to see your implementation of the
Java Printing System...
Please email it to me at this address.
Many thanks!
