AW: Problems with hyphenation in fop

["Skladovs, Victor" <Sk...@his.de>]

Hi again Frank!

The problem you describe looks the same as I had. My columns and rows
header were being written exactly the same way!
Then I began to experiment with fop from the command line and I found
that when building my pdf files directly from fo file like that:
>fop table.fo table.pdf

all pdf are fine! But using xalan-2.3.1 I've got this problem again:
>fop -xml table.xml -xsl xml2fo.xsl -pdf table.xml

That means FOP is not quilty! Have you tested all the combinations?
You can write me direct if you prefer skladov@his.de and I try to help
you.

Regards,
Viktor

Betreff: Problems with hyphenation in fop


Hello all,

I have a problem with fop which I have already posted to the
cocoon mailing list, because I use fop within cocoon. But now it is
clear that it is not a cocoon but a fop problem. Therefore I think it is
better to discuss this problem in the fop mailing list.

Here my problem again:

There is a problem with hyphenation which has the bad effect that fop 
is sometimes messing up words which must be hyphanated. The word
Kaiserslautern
(the town in Germany where I live) is e.g printed like this:

sla
ute
Kaiserrn

instead of  

   Kaisers-
     lautern.

The problems only occurs when using fop-0-20.{3,4}  together with
Xalan2.2.0
which 
is used in cocoon. Running fop with Xalan2.0.0 works.  

Joerg Pietschmann wrote referring to this issue:

         Ah, the problem with parts of hyphenated word jumping around
     is actually a FOP bug. Yes, it depends on the parser, more
     specific, it depends on how the parser passes text up.
     The bug is fixed in CVS (maintenance branch).

Now I retrieved fop from branch fop-0_20_2-maintain and built fop. 

When running this with my testfiles I got the follwing error during 
fop tree creation:

[ERROR] Couldn't find hyphenation pattern de

I fixed this with adding static final long serialVersionUID=
-7784516835472871478L; in class 
org.apache.fop.layout.hyphenation.HyphenationTree. But then I got the
follwing error:

Is this a bug or how could this be solved?

With best regards
