Bugzilla #37135:
New basic structure for the FOP website (one tab per version). Submitted by: Patrick Paul <ppaul_apache.at.yahoo.ca> Slightly modified: 1.0dev -> 0.90 The patch attached to the bug didn't contain everything Patrick did. He sent me a copy of his working copy to I could easily reproduce the changes he's done. git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xmlgraphics/fop/trunk@326073 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68

- <title>Introduction</title>
-<p>
-FOP provides an extension mechanism to add extra functionality. There
-are a number of different types of extensions that apply to different
-steps when converting FO into the rendered output.
- </p>
- </section>
-<section>
- <title>Extensions</title>
- <p>
-SVG Graphic - This applies to svg and any other xml document that
-can be converted into svg in the output. All that is required is
-the element mapping for the xml and a converter that changes the
-document into svg. This conversion is done in the FO Tree. The
-conversion is done by the top level element of the namespace
-or in the case of an external image a Converter.
- </p>
- <p>
-XML Document - Instead of converting the document into svg it
-can be passed directly to the renderer. The renderer will need
-to have a handler for the xml document. This handler can add
-information directly to the output document.
- </p>
- <p>
-Output Document - This is used to add document level information
-to the output result. Such an extension will set information that
-is passed to the output document. The area tree handles these
-extensions and passs along the information to the renderer.
-The extension may contain resolveable objects. The extension
-can be passed to the renderer once resolve either immediately,
-after the next page or at the end of the document. This is so that
-the extension can be handled according to other associated data.
- </p>
- <p>
-FO Area - This is where an extension creates an normal or extended
-area in the Area Tree. This is useful when the normal FO objects
-cannot create the area in the way that is needed.
- </p>
- <p>
-Resolveable - In some cases it may require information to be
-resolved for information such as page numbers. This can apply
-to the XML Document, FO Area or output document extensions.
- </p>
- <ul>
-<li>Add a string ['(Continued)'] to a table header if the table spans
-multiple pages. These tables are part of the content and can start
-anywhere in the page.</li>
- <li>Separate page number display for a subsection. ie. - master document
-is page 4 of 7, but subsection is page 2 of 3.</li>
- </ul>
-</section>

- <title>Examples</title>
- <p>
-Plan - The plan extension is a simple SVG graphic extension.
-Given a plan document either inside an InstreamForeignObject
-or as an external graphic, it converts the plan document into
-an svg graphic. The svg graphic is then passed through the
-Area Tree to the Renderer. The Renderer then renders the svg
-graphic as normal.
- </p>
- <p>
-PDF Outline - This is output document extension. If rendering to
-pdf and this extensionis used then the bookmark information is
-passed to the pdf document. This information is then set on the
-document.
- </p>
- <p>
-PDF Additions - This can be done with an XML Document extension.
-A simple xml document is defined that provides the appropriate
-information. When the document is rendered a handler converts the
-document into PDF markup.
- </p>
- <p>
-For example:</p>
-<source><![CDATA[<my:script-link script="app.execMenuItem('AcroSrch:Query');">
-Search
-</my:script-link>]]></source>
-<p>
-to result in a text box referencing the following PDF action:</p>
-<source><![CDATA[<<
-/S /JavaScript
-/JS (app.execMenuItem("AcroSrch:Query");)
->>]]></source>

- <title>Work In Progress</title>
- <ul>
- <li>mathml extension</li>
- <li>another xml -> svg extension</li>
- <li>svg text normal text if that can be handled otherwise stroked this is done automatically</li>
- </ul>
- </section>
- <section id="status-complete">
- <title>Completed</title>
- <ul>
- <li>svg now in an xml handler, FOP can be used without batik</li>
- <li>bookmark extension improved a bit - changed bookmark extension, now requires a wrapping element bookmark</li>
