images in pdfs
Images in PDFs haven't been working for me for a while. I tried putting
the jimi jar in lib/core, lib/optional and in the project's
src/documentation/lib directory. None worked.

Very true, what *does* work. Mines just been working for ages and I have
no idea how I got it to work.

That works, thanks Ross!
However, putting the jar file in src\documentation\lib as the FAQ says you
can, doesn't work. Not a problem for me, but our FAQ and code should be
consistent.

Yes, I've done that already. I'm not running this as a webapp though, I'm
generating the static site. I just tried the webapp to make sure and it doesn't
work either.

You are correct, your webapp shouldn't be looking in build/* but instead
src/*, latest CVS does not use build/* for resources such as images.
Be sure that you have updates from CVS. Just to make sure delete your
xml-forrest/build directory and then rebuild.

Dave,

For our case on document2fo.xsl there is a imgpath. I fixed a error when
the src is a full url, but I do not think that this will fix your
problem, but the one from the wiki-sample.xml
I think that the problem raises possibly because the images are not
copied under the resources/images.
The build process is a bit untidy at the moment, I will check this out
to see what can be simplified.
Cheers,
Cheche

Where is this URL controlled? document2fo.xsl?

No error. The PDF is created but the alt text is used instead of the
image. It's like the jimi file isn't found by forrest at all.

If it's FOP-related, the problem may be discussed on this page:
http://xml.apache.org/fop/graphics.html
A couple of notes:
- EPS graphics don't display in Acrobat, although they tend to print OK.
- As for JIMI, here's a blurb from that section:
===
Because of licensing issues, the JIMI image library is not included in
the FOP distribution. First, download and install it. Then, copy the
file "JimiProClasses.zip" from the archive to
{fop-install-dir}/lib/jimi-1.0.jar. Please note that FOP binary
distributions are compiled with JIMI support, so there is no need for
you to build FOP to add the support. If jimi-1.0.jar is installed in
the right place, it will automatically be used by FOP, otherwise it
will not.
===
(On a side note, I just checked and it appears that the latest version
of JIMI is still 1.0, so I don't think it could be a filename/version
problem)
Hope this helps!

They work fine for me. What is the error being displayed in your terminal?
