PDF Printing with XSL-FO and Apache FOP

Can anyone show me in the right direction for this? I've been hitting a wall for the past 2 weeks or so and it's really starting to infuriate me. How am I supposed to work this out? Where do I start? Let's say I create a layout file with a WYSIWYG XSL editor, in what format do I export it? XSL, XSLT or XSL-FO? I figured it was XSL-FO, but who knows. I tried them all anyways, but nothing seems to work. I seem to be missing a step or something, 'cause something's definitely not right.
I created a report query (which actually contains two queries):

Hello Mathieu
i assume that the default PDF printing is working, but that you want to create some better looking reports and therefore use a different non-generic XSL-FO.
You can do several things in Apex but you can use the Apache-Fop conversion also indepent from Apex.
What you need is:
1) An XML (Data) File. You can get it from your report query when you say export it to XML.
2) The XSL-FO (Layout) file. THis is the processing instruction that says how convert the XML Data into an XML-FO. You can create it manually or with some tool.
3) The next step is to render the XML-FO into any output format (pdf, rtf, html)
The creation of the XML-FO and of the PDF are done by the apache fop converter (cocoon or Batik framework if I remember correctly) in a single process but you can influence it so that both steps are done separately. See also: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.95/running.html
The advantage is that you usually get much better error messages from the single steps.
My recommendation would be to do all the steps with a very basic report first.
Then gradually improve the complexity of the report, the data and the layout.

  • PDFs printing with black background and white text.

    For some reason some of our PDF's have been printing with black backgrounds and white text, even though they appear to be normal on the screen before they are printed. I haven't been able to confirm 100% yet but it appears to only be happening with pdfs that were created from scanned documents.
    Can somebody please offer me some suggestions.

    Absolutely agree with the original poster.  I find white text on black background so very very difficult (I changed from using Tweetbot on iOS to Tweetlogix for this very reason) and it physically hurts my eyes to try to read it.  I can just about manage with Spotify using white text on a black background on the large screen of my MacBook Pro - and I do mean "just" - but for the smaller screen of my iPhone 5 it is just impossible.  Even with a retina screen such as that on the iPhone 5S there is a strange ghosting effect and it gives me a headache to look at it for too long. 
    This may be something to do with age!  I suspect most app developers are youngsters with almost perfect eyesight, but for those of us whose eyesight is less than perfect, this white text on black background really is so very difficult.
    I know there is a workaround in setting the iPhone to invert ALL colours (under Accessibility in Settings) but it's a real pain to have to keep altering this setting every time I want to open or close Spotify, and it doesn't look right anyway.  iOS7 is supposed to be a light, bright, easy to read OS - sadly this new Spotify app is the opposite of that.
    Please would Spotify consider adding a simple light or dark theme option, so that those of us who want it can have our much easier to read light background back again, with grey or black text?  It would be a great help to those of us who have eyesight problems.
    If not, I may have to cancel my Spotify Premium account and move to Deezer instead, as I mainly use Spotify when out and about in the car, so am using the iOS app a lot.
    Thank you for considering this plea!

  • Is there a setting to make a PDF print with no background and black text?

    I made a nice booklet that has colorful blocks in the background and sometimes white text and sometimes black text. We are not going to print it, it is just going to be a PDF on our website. Can I set it up so that it always prints without the backgrounds and makes all the text black?
    I just don't want people to have to print huge fields of colr if they end up printing this out on a little ink jet with expensive and finicky cartridges...
    BT

    There are is no as such specified setting for customer or reader printer, because it depends on the printer setting of customer. However, you can mentioned that, if any one want to print book as black text, follow this setting http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/print-black-white-acrobat-reader.html

  • PDF prints with little boxes and question marks

    I prepared a document in Microsoft Publisher 360 and created a pdf with creative cloud.
    Looks great and prints great for me.
    I emailed it to a few people and it looks great on their screens. However, when they print it,
    it comes out with little boxes and question marks. 
    If I email them the publisher file it is fine.
    How I can get them the PDF file without all the odd markings?

    You probably used a font that is not on their system and did not embed the font in the PDF when you created it.  Don't feel bad.  We all have done it.  Just  make sure to embed your fonts in the Joboptions settings before you recreate the PDF.

  • Apex with XE10g/Tomcat 6.0.13 PDF Print with Apex  FOP.WAR

    Apex with XE10g/Tomcat 6.0.13 PDF Print with Apex fop.war/apex_fop.jsp
    Hello,
    Excuse me bad english.
    I have a problem with Oracle XE and Printing from Reports over Tomcat 6.0.13.
    I have update Oracle XE with Apex 3.1 and it works fine.
    Now i have tried to Print a report to PDF. So i have deployed the FOP.WAR from Apex Utilities under Tomcat.
    I see in Tomcat Manager http://localhost:8888/manager/html/list that the FOO
    has been deployed and is running.
    If i try to print then i get this Message down to this page.
    Can anybody give me a hint to solve this problem???
    Hint
    To resolve the problem i have installed Oracle OC4J with same Port and deployed
    the same foo.war file.
    Then works and all printing from Oracle Apex work fine and okay.
    So i thing the Apex and Oracle work correct.
    But we have a small Application so i would prefer to work with Tomcat a application Server.
    Becaus of previous Errors have copied some *.jar files to C:\tomcat6.0.13\lib
    but i thing this is not the Problem.

  • Apex 4.2.2 PDF Printing with Apex 2.0 Listener

    We recently installed Apex 4.2 with the Apex 2.0 Listener and can successfully print interactive reports and classic reports to PDF.  I viewed Mark Sewtz PDF Printing with Apex 4.2.2 and saw how he is using third party tools to format reports.  We have also looked into the Jasper Report Integration Toolkit, but have only got it working on the Tomcat environment, not WebLogic.
    I'm trying to download a classic report in PDF format with our logo displayed at the header.  In the print attributes section, there is a section for header.  I've tried adding the following in the header section:
    <img src = "http://hr.unm.edu/common/images/unm_dept_logo.gif">
    No Logo Prints
    #APP_IMAGES#unm_dept_logo.gif
    Prints in header:
    wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?
    p_security_group_id=3930016164431413%26p_flow_id=106%26p_fname=unm_dept_logo.gif
    #WORKSPACE_IMAGES#unm_dept_logo.gif
    Prints in header: /i/unm_dept_logo.gif
    I've also added the logo in the report region, prior to the columns printing, but no logo downloads to PDF.
    Does the Apex Listener only render text?  Is there any way to get the logo to print in the header without using a third party tool?  Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

    Hi,
    There are different options to include images in your PDF exports. What's important to understand though is that with the PDF export functionality we separate the formatting from the actual data. So the formatting is defined in your RTF or XSL-FO templates and the data is stored in the XML that APEX generates based on your report data. We have several formatting options exposed on the print attributes pages, i.e. you can define page formatting, dimensions, fonts, colors, etc - all of these are applied to what we call generic XSL-FO templates. Those templates are generic in that they can be used with different reports, having variable numbers of columns and variable column names. Those formatting attributes can not be used however with named column templates, such as those that you generate with BI Publisher or those third-party tools I talked about in my Blog.
    So if you want to use these formatting options, you need a generic report layout - which you get out of the box using the built-in layout. But you also have the option to create your own generic report layout (see Shared Components -> Report Layouts). When creating a custom generic report layout, you'll get a copy of the built-in layout as a starting point. Once created, you can manually modify this layout to meet your needs. As you edit this template, you'll find a number of #....# substitution strings. This is what APEX uses at runtime to fill in your formatting values as well as to assemble your generic layout based on your result set.
    Now one way to include your own image would be to add an image reference to this generic report layout. You can't use the page header or footer attributes on the print attributes page for that because the FOP rendering engine does not understand or translate HTML. It renders XSL-FO. So to add your own image reference, you need to use XSL-FO mark-up. If you want to add an image to your page header, look for the #PAGE_HEADER# substitution string in the "Page Template" attribute of your generic report layout. You should be able to find the following:
    <fo:inline xsl:use-attribute-sets="page-header">
        #PAGE_HEADER#
    </fo:inline>
    Now assuming you have a file stored in your local images directory on localhost, you could add the following external graphic reference:
    <fo:inline xsl:use-attribute-sets="page-header">
        <fo:external-graphic src="http://localhost:8080/i/cloud.gif" content-height="scale-to-fit" height="30px"  content-width="150px" scaling="non-uniform"/>
        #PAGE_HEADER#
    </fo:inline>
    Once you're done with your chanages, save the report layout and edit your report. Go to the print attributes and select your generic report layout and then run your report page and export the PDF. Provided the APEX Listener is able to find this external image reference, it will now be included above your report in your PDF document.
    Regards,
    Marc

  • PDF printing with proxy server

    Hello,
    I installed Apex 3.0.1 and configured it for pdf printing using OC4J and Apache FOP. The OC4J process is running on the same server as the database. I used localhost as hostname and 8888 as port.
    Everything works fine, however, when I specify a proxy server in the Application Definition, the pdf printing stops working ... I suppose this is because the print server is now located through the proxy server and this doesn't work ... But, I need to configure the proxy server because I want to use an external web service ...
    Anyone else that has this problem and knows of a possible workaround ?
    Thanks
    Matthias

    Well, in my case this is not an option, since I used a demo host and domain name which can't be resolved through the proxy server ... If only there was an option to skip the proxy server for localhost settings (like there is in Internet Explorer).

  • BIP Word Template and Apache FOP

    Hello:
    Can I create a report format using the BIP Word template .. export it as XSL-FO file and use it with the open source Apache-FOP from APEX?
    Is there some technical constraints or licensing issues with doing this ?
    Yesh

    The xslfo, you created from BIP , will have reference to functions , which are customized function written by oracle BIP in JAVA,
    so the apache-FOP has to know , that these functions are custom ones, not as normal XSL-fo...
    Manual Conversion from RTF to XSL-FO, and using them in Standard support should work i guess.
    The standard Supportgives only to XSL-FO, Advanced support helps you to get the RTF template , but for this, installation of BIP licensed is needed :)
    With e-biz license,i dont think, you can install BIP separately, that has to be with E-biz only.

  • Problems with borderless printing with iPhoto '08 and HP Photosmart Printer

    I am trying to print borderless 4x6 photos on HP Photosmart C6250 (same as all HP C62xx Photosmart printers). I am using the HP 4x6 photo paper with the perforated tab. When I select the paper size, I specify Borderless 4x6 in/10 x15 cm (tab). According to the printer manual, the tab should be facing out. I have tried printing with tab out and the tab in. With tab in, it printed the picture leaving white space at the other end equal to length of tab. With tab out as printer specified, it left a white gap at beginning of photo (not as wide as tab) and printed the photo over the perforated tab.
    Anyone else figured out how to print using the 4x6 paper with tabs. I also tried printing from the HP software included with the printer and it has issues, too. So, it might be an HP problem, or is it maybe a Mac printing issue with this printer.
    Thanks for any help!
    Barbara

    Barbara:
    This is a shot in the dark but take a look at the following topic. It might just help. As they say, any port in a storm.
    Topic : iphoto won't print properly to HP photosmart
    It does seem like a bizarre solution however. Good luck.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
