borders with FOP resolution 72dpi
Hello,
With FOP resolution of 72dpi border-width="1px" is about 0.35...mm
It is possible to change dpi to get thinner borders?
I tried to change
<pixelToMillimeter value="0.35277777777777777778"/>
in fop.xconf, but i get
[ERROR] Unknown tag in configuration file: pixelToMillimeter
Thanks for help.
Kind Regards
Stefan Pickel

Well, in 0.20.5 I think this is simply implicit and hardcoded. In the
trunk this took some adjusting in certain places. It could also be that
in 0.20.5 there are rounding errors that affect the border widths.
I'll check out the border behaviour in trunk shortly.

Hmm... So that happens when you render directly to the printer
(PrintRenderer)?
I know that with the version currently in the TRUNK, you can set this
with FOUserAgent.setResolution() --which defaults to 72dpi.
How this is done in the maintenance branch (FOP 0.20.5), I'm not
sure... Anyone?

AW: borders with FOP resolution 72dpi
Posted by Stefan Pickel <st...@t-online.de>.
Hi,
I already tested with device-independent units,
PDF rendering is ok, but when printing with fop
borders have the same width until reaching 0.35...mm
How can I print thinner borders?

Yes, because that is the standard Adobe's PDF Spec prescribes for the
User Space (which then gets mapped to device-dependent coordinate
systems that may or may not also be 72dpi, but the abstraction is made
exactly to ensure that the same object when printed or displayed always
has the same size, whether the output device's resolution is 72dpi or
300dpi).

Why? Can't you define the border-width in device-independent units
(0.17mm or 0.5pt instead of 1px)?
This would solve your problem without having to change the resolution
for all output... and it would also ensure that the border-width is the
same for all renderers (regardless of resolution).
Just a thought.
