alternate text extension not working in FOP version 2.0
Hi,
Trying to use xsl-fo to generate a pdf for accessibility compliance. Need
to add alternate text to images as the first thing. Getting the latest
version of FOP 2.0 and follow the example on the website. I've test it
with simply one image on the pdf and pdf was generated without any error.
However, after opening the document and ran a full check for accessibility
still see the warning for missing alternate text on the image and the only
way to fix it would be manually apply the alternate text through acrobat.
The namespace I was using is "http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/extensions
", not sure if it is still a valid one to use. I've tried searching for
solutions online and couldn't find anyone has similar problem as I do.
Please let me know if you guys know what's the possible problem that
alternate-text is not showing without any error message.
Thanks,
Eva

Hi Chris,
Yes, the first thing I did was to enable accessibility in the config. Thanks
for your help, really appreciated.

Hi,
You don't need metric files anymore since v0.95 (or earlier, don't
remember exactly).
To have both normal, extended, or condensed fonts, you have to name
them differently, style attribute is only used to distinguish regular
Vs italic.
The main improvement in font variations, between v0.2.x and after, is
the weight attribute that support numeric values, allowing to map
'light', 'normal', 'medium', 'bold', etc. to 300, 400, 500, 700, etc.

Hi Chris,
I'm in the process of converting fop from version 0.25 to version 2. There
are several custom fonts and I had no problem registering custom fonts when
I specify style with "normal" or "italic" in font-triplet. However, I've a
font with different styles which registered as below where style is being
used to distinguish the difference from the same font. I assume I can put
any style name in font-triplet and I should be able to use it in fo where I
need to specify the matching font-family and style. My current work around
would be register each style with a unique name in font-triplet and change
all the corresponding references in fo. I just want to verify if the newer
version of FOP won't be able to specific any other styles other than
"normal" and "italic" in <font-triplet> in the config. Or I'm missing
something in the config in order to add a new style. Do I need a metric-url
in this case??
fop.xconf:
<font-triplet name="Eurostile" style="condensed" weight="bold"/>
<font-triplet name="Eurostile" style="extended" weight="normal"/>
fo:
(Error: Invalid property value encountered in font-style="condensed" )
<fo:block text-align="center" space-after.optimum="3pt"
font-family="Eurostile" font-style="condensed" font-weight="normal"
font-size="8pt" color="white">April 30, 2015</fo:block>
(No error produce when having the same config, but changing the font-style
from condense to normal in fo then it works)
<fo:block text-align="center" space-after.optimum="3pt"
font-family="Eurostile" font-style="normal" font-weight="normal"
font-size="8pt" color="white">April 30, 2015</fo:block>

Posted by Chris Bowditch <bo...@hotmail.com>.
Hi Eva,
style supports only normal or italic currently. Condensed is not a valid
value for the style attribute. I suggest changing it to normal and
putting condensed into the font Triplet name within the fop.xconf along
with changing the font-family in the FO
Thanks,
Chris

Thanks a lot! my config works now. I don't know if you are familiar with
adding custom fonts in the config. I'm having trouble with a custom font
that I add in the config. I reference apache fop 2.0 website for custom
fonts and still no luck, not sure which step is causing the issue that the
font is not register properly.
Config:
<font-triplet name="Trade Gothic" style="condensed" weight="normal"/>
xsl:
<fo:block padding-top="0.11in" font-family="Eurostile"
font-style="condensed" font-weight="normal" font-size="8pt">
Error:
Invalid property value encountered in font-style="condensed": org.apache

Hi Eva,
If it works with -a option then this suggests the config file isn't
being recognized. You need to specify -c option at command line to use a
config file.

Hi Chris,
>From FOP's website, it mentions there are 3 ways to turn on accessibility.
I've been using the config way by adding accessibility entry in the config.
I just tried another way using -a in the command and found the pdf generated
was passing the full check for the very first time. I don't know where did I
do wrong in the config file. I just got all the files downloaded from the
website and adding a new entry in fop.xconf.
<fop version="1.0">
<accessibility>true</accessibility>
Do I need to change anything else for the program to read from
conf/fop.xconf or by default it should read the config file from conf
folder? I'm new to FOP, really apprecipated your help here.
Thanks,
Eva

Hi Eva,
Did you enable accessibility in the fop.xconf, via the tags:
<accessibility>true</accessibility>
Thanks

Hi Eva,
I've not seen this problem before. fox:alt-text works fine for me and
passes acrobat preflight. Can you share your complete XSL-FO File?
Thanks,
