You need to install Forrest if you want build the docs - yourself. (See - <a href="http://xml.apache.org/forrest/your-project.html">Using Forrest</a>) - </li> - <li>The following JARs have been updated: - Xerces to version 2.2.1, Xalan to version 2.4.1 and Batik to version 1.5beta4. - </li> - <li>FOP has been compiled with Jimi support, but Jimi is not included in the - FOP distribution. To use it, first download - <a href="http://java.sun.com/products/jimi/">Jimi</a>, then extract - the archive, then - copy JimiProClasses.zip to FOP's lib dir and rename it to jimi-1.0.jar. - </li> - <li>FOP has been compiled with JAI support, but JAI is not included in the - FOP distribution. To use it, simply install - <a href="http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jai">JAI</a>. - </li> - <li>Links in PDF won't generate multiple link rectangles anymore. If this causes - a problem you can set the system property "links.merge" to "no". - </li> - <li>FOP has been compiled with cryptography support. See - <a href="0.94/pdfencryption.html"> - PDF encryption</a> for details about installation and usage. - </li> - <li>The behaviour of leader has changed. See - <a href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19341">bug #19341</a>, - <a href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19465">bug #19465</a> - and <code>leader.fo</code> (examples). - </li> - <li> - For a more detailed list of changes, see the CHANGES file in the root of the - FOP distribution. - </li> - </ul> - -</section> -<section> - <title>FOP 0.20.4</title> - <p>Important changes since 0.20.3:</p> - <ul> - <li>FOP should now work with any JAXP1.1 compliant parser/transformer. - It has been successfully tested with Xerces/Xalan, Saxon and JDK1.4 - (which includes Crimson and Xalan). - </li> - <li>The following JARs have been updated: - Xerces to version 2.0.1, Xalan to version 2.3.1 and Batik to version 1.5beta2. - </li> - <li>FOP has been compiled with Jimi support this time - but you still have to download - <a href="http://java.sun.com/products/jimi/">Jimi</a> - and copy it to lib/ to get PNG support (no need to build FOP yourself though). - </li> - <li>Building FOP with JDK1.2 does not work. Running is ok except - support for additional truetype fonts in AWT Viewer. - </li> - <li>Logging has been changed from LogKit to Avalon's Logger Interface. - (see <a href="0.94/embedding.html">Embedding</a> for details). - </li> - <li>Building under JDK 1.4: - You need to add a method in - <code>src/org/apache/fop/svg/PDFGraphics2D.java</code> - (search for jdk1.4 and remove the comments) - </li> - <li>To decrease the size of the distributions, ant, xml-docs, design-docs - and the hyphenation sources have been removed from the binary distribution. - Javadocs have been removed from the source distribution (use - <code>build javadocs</code> to generate them). - </li> - <li>Documentaion generation is broken in the maintenance branch at the moment - (Stylebook needs xerces1). The docs for this release are generated from the trunk. - </li> - <li> - For a more detailed list of changes, see the CHANGES file in the root of the FOP distribution. - </li> - </ul> - </section> - -<section> - <title>FOP 0.20.3</title> - <p>Important Information:</p> - <ul> - <li>This version supports the - <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xsl-20011015/">XSL-FO Version 1.0 - W3C Recommendation</a> syntax. So don't forget to update your - Stylesheets: - <br/>Just rename the <code>master-name</code> property to <code>master-reference</code> - on <code>fo:page-sequence</code>, <code>fo:single-page-master-reference</code>, - <code>fo:repeatable-page-master-reference</code> and - <code>fo:conditional-page-master-reference</code>.</li> - <li>JDK 1.2 (or later) is required</li> - <li>Jimi has been removed for licensing reasons - <br/>If you need PNG support you have to download - <a href="http://java.sun.com/products/jimi/">Jimi</a>, - copy it to lib/ and build FOP yourself</li> - <li>Building under JDK 1.4: - <br/>You need to add a method in - <code>src/org/apache/fop/svg/PDFGraphics2D.java</code> - (search for jdk1.4 and remove the comments) - </li> - <li> - For a more detailed list of changes, see the CHANGES file in the root of the FOP distribution. - </li> - </ul> - </section> - - </body> -</document> - |
