[ANN] New release of PDF image support for Apache FOP
I've just uploaded a new release (Version 1.3) of the PDF image support
plug-in for Apache FOP (0.95beta and later).
The plug-in allows to include existing PDF files using
fo:external-graphic and fox:external-document when generating PDF output.
It is published under the Apache License V2.0, just like Apache FOP.
For details on the plug-in, please read the README file in the
distribution.
Download from here:
http://www.jeremias-maerki.ch/development/fop/index.html
Changes since version 1.2:
- Fixed a NullPointerException when the MediaBox is inherited.
- An invalid page number is now properly handled.

Congratulations on the release, Jeremias! Your efforts are
appreciated, and I suspect many will take advantage of your hard work!

Note to self: Not only put the jars in the classpath, also put them in the CORRECT classpath. Works great now!
Thanks for your help and for the package. Another problem solved.

"No ImagePreloader found" means that either the plug-in was not found in
the classpath or that the PDF file could not be loaded by PDFBox.

Yes, that's PDF 1.5 and not it doesn't explain the error message.

I never had to do that but I can imagine there are a number of tools out
there that can do that. For example, GhostScript should be able to do it.

Yes. But "No ImagePreloader found" also means that the file was found.
There was just no way available to handle the image.
> 3) What's the difference between fo:external-graphic and fox:external-document?
See the documentation for fox:external-document:
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.95/extensions.html#external-document
Basically, fo:external-graphic creates an inline, single-page image
inside a page. fox:external-document creates a page-sequence and creates
a new page for each page in the source document.

PDFBox @SourceForge ran on CVS. The code change I needed to make the
plug-in work was this one:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=552834&aid=1806912&group_id=78314
So I guess if you checked out the source with date "2007-10-16" you
should get a version that works with the plug-in. What I'm publishing
with the plug-in is a local snapshot build. I know, it's not beautiful.
Anyway, I'm planning to migrate the plug-in to the migrated PDFBox
(currently in ASF incubation) as soon as the first release is ready.
That will make things easier.

Re: [ANN] New release of PDF image support for Apache FOP
Posted by Peter Coppens <pc...@gmail.com>.
Jeremias,
We are trying to maintain a 'clean' maven setup to build our own software
from. For those dependencies we don't have external maven repo's we try to
build from the source.
The 'problem' we are currently facing is that it is unclear for us which
version of PDFBox the fop-pdf 1.3 build depends on. We found a
PDFBox-0.7.4-dev.jar and local version of some of the classes in
/src/java/org/apache/fop/render/pdf/pdfbox/
Do you see a way to help us. Perhaps you have the svn revision corresponding
to PDFBox-0.7.4-dev?
Many thanks indeed!

Posted by Georg Datterl <ge...@geneon.de>.
Hi Jeremias,
I just tried to use the extension (with the latest data fom repository) with
<fo:external-graphic src="GF_logo_sw.pdf#page=1"/>
and get a
ERROR apps.FOUserAgent [main]: Image not available. URI: GF_logo_sw.pdf#page=1. Reason: org.apache.xmlgraphics.image.loader.ImageException: No ImagePreloader found for GF_logo_sw.pdf#page=1 (Siehe Position 1:2012)
Same result without #page=1.
The logo pdf starts with
%PDF-1.5
%âãÏÓ
1 0 obj
<</Metadata 38 0 R/Pages 2 0 R/OCProperties<</D<</RBGroups[]/ON[22 0 R]/Order 21 0 R>>/OCGs[22 0 R]>>/Type/Catalog>>
endobj
38 0 obj
1) Does that mean it's a PDF 1.5 file and does that explain the error message?
a1) Do you know a way to convert the pdf to 1.4?
2) Where's the root for external-graphic? fop.xconf-><base>?
3) What's the difference between fo:external-graphic and fox:external-document?
