Build minimal Fop.jar

[Jonny Pony <jo...@hotmail.com>]

Hi,

I want to build a minimal fop.jar that suits my needs.

What I do:
- I'm converting XML to PDF using XSLT and XSL-FO.
- I'm including an image.
- I'm adding extra fonts to fop, using a configuration-file.

So why do I need a viewer, etc..

My aim is to reduce the size of this jar as far as possible for my needs.
Is there a good tutorial on this which explains the contents of this 
package?

Since I need the batik.jar (which is really big) for running FOP, does 
anybody know what I could cut out of this jar.


Thanks
Jonny

While this post may not answer your specific question, these threads 
started by rday might help you pare down some of the "bulk" (if you can 
call it that). Keep in mind, that I believe rday was trying to rid his 
system of unnecessary "ancillary" jars, and *not* fop.jar:

This post also attempts to sum this up (with follow-up remarks):

Be sure to read each thread in its entirety though, as the responses by 
the list heavies are enlightening!

If you go "digging" and come up with a pared down fop.jar yourself 
(that works!), please report back on your findings, so others may 
benefit!

p.s. At some point in the future, some of this information (including 
any follow-up you provide) might find its way into the docs!
