Where report small bug in example file external.fo?

[Richard Bondi <rb...@ergito.com>]

In 2.04rc, the example file \docs\examples\svg\external.fo needs 
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" in e.g. the <fo:root tag in 
order to work. This could trip up novices and others. Where should I report 
this for fixing?

This is already fixed in CVS.
In general, either post to fop-dev, or if you want to be sure
it wont get lost, open a bug at bugzilla
  http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/

Problem and solution in Adobe Illustrator SVG export

[Richard Bondi <rb...@ergito.com>]

Here's a problem with Illustrator 10 (Windows) that I had, and how to solve 
it. I hope this helps anyone with the same problem; seems to be a bug in 
Illustrator's SVG exporter.

Problem:
-------------
You create an SVG in Illustrator (via Export to Web), and try to put into a 
pdf with fop 204rc. But nothing shows up in the PDF, and you get the error 
messages:

- Could not load external SVG: The value of the attribute "xmlns:graph" is 
invalid. Prefixed namespace bindings may be empty.
- Error while creating area: No ImageReader for this type of image ([path 
of file follows]).

Solution:
------------
Edit the SVG file in a text editor, and delete the attribute 
xmlns:graph="&ns_graphs;". As the error message indicates, the entity 
&ns_graphs is never defined. At least in my file, it was also never used.

Best,
