Yes, footers defined via API always allocate specified space, even if for a particular page they must be skip.

You may achieve the needed footer appearance with so-called inline footers, using tag. See the topic for more details:

Hello,

We do have problem with rendering under Linux (Ubuntu, Tomcat).

It looks like the problem is related to white space. When there is several white space symbols (i.e codes (A0),   ” ” etc) that occur after the tag then everything after a new line is discarded until next span tag.

Still, the same template will work perfectly under Windows (Jetty).

Hi,

I am using PD4ML Professional to generate reports based on a combination of HTML templates and dynamic content from our application engine.

When I try to create a document without a cover page, I end up with a blank first page in the document. It seems like the

tag triggers a page break even when it is the first tag in the section.

Is there some way to suppress this behaviour?

#28086

By default

does not force a page break.

Obviously in the document CSS defined something like

H1 { page-break-before: always }

You need to override the setting for the first

tag.

I’ve noticed that PD4ML supports Arabic RTL formatting when consuming html/css that contains the direction=”rtl” attribute. The problem that I’m facing is that when I configure it to use a multicolumn layout, the columns always fill in from left-to-right. Is there a configuration setting that I’m missing?

Thanks,
Steph

Sorry, it was a false alarm. I’m a bit embarrassed, but I just found that it was our template preparser that did the page break insertation. Hmm, not my code… 🙂

Thank you for the quick reply!

Hi,

Today, I’ve struggled for working done your library.
I finally found (by myself) the famous problem of dom classes which are already defined in JRE (mentioned here : pdf-generation-troubleshooting-f4/noclassdeffounderror-org-w3c-dom-document-t7.html)

You know this problem since more than one year, couldn’t you correct this quickly in a future version ?

Thanks.

Hi (again :-p),

I search to open a dialog with save/open when I generate a PDF. How can I do it ?
I know that it seems to be possible to do it with tags but I can’t to use them easily.

I tried to do it with setContentType(), setHeader()… but I didn’t succeed…

Thanks for your help.

#28088

I’ve paid fro a Pro license. Could I get a response to this please?

Steph.

#28089

In few days we are going to release a new version, which addresses RTL issues as well. Hopefully it solves the problem you reported. Stay tuned.

#28097

ss_css2.jar is a library, developed by CSS Parser open-source project. It is difficult to say if we are legally allowed to remove the classes from the original set.

#28103

If you use PD4ML JSP taglib, just define inline=”false” and fileName=”file.pdf” attributes of

In servlet/PHP/etc scenarios, define

Content-disposition: attachment; filename=file.pdf

HTTP response header.

#28098

I’m not sure of that but it seems that ss_css2.jar is the equivalant of CSS Parser 0.9.4. Today, there is the version 0.9.5. Maybe it is better.

Else, LGPL, the CSS Parser license, authorize you (and everybody) to modify it if you redistribute the modified library with the same license.

#28099

0.9.5 currently is not compatible with PD4ML. The issue is in our TO DO list to fix.

#28104

Ok, thanks.

It was difficult but I succeed. It is a little bit sad and it need to be ameliorated but it works. A simple example :

int userSpaceWidth = 780;<br /> File output = new File("document.pdf");<br /> FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(output);<br /> PD4ML pd4ml = new PD4ML();<br /> pd4ml.setHtmlWidth(userSpaceWidth);<br /> pd4ml.render("http://www.w3.org/", fos);<br /> <br /> response.setContentType("application/pdf");<br /> response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=document.pdf");<br /> FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(output);<br /> int i;<br /> while ((i=fileInputStream.read())!=-1)<br /> {<br /> response.getOutputStream().write(i);<br /> }<br /> response.getOutputStream().flush();<br /> response.getOutputStream().close();<br /> fileInputStream.close();<br /> output.delete();
