Re: Scaling images that are running off the page!

[Jeremias Maerki <de...@jeremias-maerki.ch>]

I think the layout manager code for external-graphic and
instream-foreign-object still have smaller problems in this area. It
seems that the code doesn't properly check if they height exceed the
area made available. The image is always scaled horizontally to the
available limits. Now, if the image is too high, the image area is too
large for the page and results in a RuntimeException ("Some content
could not fit....") It's this error you get, right?

In the short time I've looked into this, I didn't find any work-arounds.
The only thing you can do is know beforehand how big the images are and
adjust the attributes on the e-g element accordingly. I guess the layout
manager code for AbstractGraphicsLayoutManager will have to be improved.
