What's wrong with FOP?   Message List

Re: What's wrong with FOP?

This thread went dormant in early December with some issues
surrounding the substitution of XEP with FOP still unrevolved. At that

their efforts. If either of you are still out there, were your efforts
ultimately successful?

Hi Travis - ... I think the main reason for that is that we haven't taken the time to test with the new version to ensure the build still works. I do not know...

I think I'm the "at least one person" that Robert was referring to. I've gotten FOP to run with 1.4.1, but not without some problems. I needed to do the...

Hello again, Although my build is still not using the correct FOP, I did run FOP 0.94 manually on the FO output of the Idiom plugin. First of all I had to...

I'm trying to get it working from a non-full build of the toolkit. Using the full install caused too many classpath definitions for fop 0.20 to get set. I'm...
