Using draft images with fop, and catalogs.
I am using Saxon and 
FOP to generate PDF files from DocBook.  And I'm using a draft 
image.

My customized 
stylesheet for DocBook->FO includes a value for the parameter 
draft.watermark.image.  It is currently the full local path to the draft.png file that 
I am using (ie somethiing 
like C:/DocBook/docbook-xsl-1.74.0/images/draft.png)

I would like to 
change it to be a url (or is it a uri), probably using the catalog resolving 
mechanism that is available in Saxon using the -x, -y, -r, -u qualifiers.  

 

I notice that at the 
moment the filename value appears in the FO file in the form 
"url(images/drft.png)" when I set draft.watermark.image to "images/draft.png" in 
my custom xsl file.  Thus I presume that the stylesheet is just copying 
over the parameter value and putting it in "url()".

 

Can someone advise 
how to go about doing this.  Do I need to tell the XSL stylesheet to change 
the format of what it inserts in the FO ?  Or do I need to tell FOP that 
it's a URL/URI and to use the resolver ?

 

Uncertainly,

Richard.
