[HELP]XSL to PDF graphics

[Michael Plumb <mp...@cmcflex.com>]

I am attempting to convert An XSL:FO and XML file to a PDF output.  I can
currently get the text to work just fine.  But I am unable to get the
graphics I have within my XSL file to convert over as well.  I am left with
a PDF page of Text with holes where the graphics should be.  Could you
please send me the SITEMAP line of code to fix this problem, or tell me
another way to remedy it.  Thank you.

Hi Michael,

thi sis most likely not a problem of the sitemap but of FOP (the PDF
renderer). If I remember correctly FOP does not like relative references to
an image. Just make the references explicit
(http://www.somewhere.com/myimage.jpg) and it should be working. There are
certainly more elegant ways to deal with this problem, but you can find the
problem source this way rather quickly.

best regards,

Stephan

The PDF serializer probably can't find the image files.
You can try absolute file URLs, like
   src="file:///foo/bar/some-image.jpg"
or define a base URL in the config file.
You can find more on the latter in the COcoon docs and the
Wiki.
