- <li>Send only <em>plain text</em> email messages to any mailing lists.
- Please do <em>not</em> send html or rtf email, as they do not work well with the archive engines.
- If you are using Microsoft Outlook, this setting can be found at the "Mail Format" tab of the Tools/Options menu.</li>
- <li>Use a mail client that respects the <em>References</em> and/or <em>In-Reply-To</em> mail header entries.

Non-compliant mail clients include Microsoft Exchange, Lotus Notes, Internet Mail Service (MUA or MTA), and dtmail.</li>

- <title>Submitting a Question</title>
- <p>FOP support is primarily <em>self-service</em>. The FOP User Mailing List serves as a backup to the self-service documentation for cases where either the documentation is deficient or where users have unusual circumstances. FOP developers and users are happy to help answer questions that are <em>appropriate to the forum</em> (i.e. FOP-specific), and that are <em>submitted after appropriate preparation</em>. To ensure that your question is not <strong>abusive</strong> of this policy, please use the following checklist:</p>
- <ul>
- <li>Have you followed the <link href="gethelp.html">Getting Help</link> checklist? If not, please do so before submitting your question.</li>
- <li>Is your question appropriate to the forum? If it is really an XSL-FO question, XSLT question, or PDF question, please see the other resources on this page that are intended to help you get those questions answered.</li>
- <li>Have you read <link href="#general">Mailing List General Information</link>? If not please do so before proceeding.</li>
- <li>Have you stated the version of FOP you are using? Please do so. Usually, it's a good idea to state the JDK/JRE version and the operating system you're using, too.</li>
- <li>Have you included any detailed error messages? Please do so.</li>
- <li>Does a proper understanding of your question require inclusion of XSLT code, DocBook
- source, or other semantic XML? If so, the question is <em>almost certainly not
- appropriate to this list</em>. In general, the only input documents that are
- appropriate on this list are XSL-FO snippets. See <link
- href="1.1rc1/running.html#check-input">Running Xalan</link> for instructions about capturing the XSL-FO document that is actually submitted to FOP. If you haven't examined the XSL-FO document yourself, then you are not yet prepared to formulate a FOP-specific question.</li>
- <li>If you are providing one or more XSL-FO snippets:
- <ul>
- <li>Have you reduced them to the shortest possible complete, <strong>self-contained</strong> document that demonstrates the problem? Please do so.</li>
- <li>Have you removed images that are not an integral part of the question? Please do so.</li>
- <li>Have you filtered out confidential material? Please do so.</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>If you are including a stack trace:
- <ul>
- <li>Is it helpful in finding the problem? If not, please do not submit it.</li>
- <li>Have you included only those portions that are relevant to the question? If not, please do so.</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>Are you attaching large PDF files or screen shots to your message? If so, please consider attaching a minimal, appropriate B&W GIF, JPG or PNG that conveys the necessary information instead. A good alternative is to put the files on a web server.</li>
