I found the problem by validating a sample file
with the attributes you were trying to use. The description in my book
has a typo. Where it says contentheight, the attribute name is actually
contentdepth in DocBook. When I validated, it pointed out that I had an
invalid attribute.
If you are using FOP 0.93, then it works with the
right attribute name. If you are using FOP 0.20.5, it is a known problem
that it does not handle image scaling correctly.
Hi Bob,
I'd previously been working on upgrading our build from FOP 0.25 to 0.93,
and have just picked up that project again.
Everything is fine, apart from image sizes. It appears that the
default behavior for graphics in fop 0.25 for PDF output (where no imagedata
attributes are set), is:
* images that fit the width of the page are displayed at their intrinsic
size,
* images are too wide are shrunk to fit on the page.
This worked fine for our purposes. However, in fop 0.93, all images are
displayed at their "intrinsic" size, so any which are too wide simply flow off
the page.
Rather than having to set attributes for every single image (our docs
contain a lot of screenshots), if there any customization possible which forces
FOP .93 to mimic the FOP 0.25 treatment of images?
Thanks,
-pm
