<s1 title="TODO List for FOP">
<s2 title="FOP TODO">
<p>
Core Features - these are the areas that are important to getting fop
to be useable for general use.
</p>
<p>
Processing improvements - these are mainly things that can be improved
in the way fop works, eg. resources usage, pdf output etc.
</p>
<p>
Enhancements - these are added functionality that might be useful, no
comment is made about the suitability of these suggestions.
</p>
</s2>
<s2 title="Core Features">
<s3 title="Layout">
<p>
This is the crucial part to getting FOP to make it to the next step.
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="Webstart Demo">
<p>
a demo using Java Webstart that runs the awt viewer and supports
linking from an index
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="Website">
<p>
Need to improve the website to better demonstrate what fop is and
can do. Examples, screenshots, pdf documents.
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="Property Support">
<p>
Currently all properties are in the xml file. We need to handle all default
values properly (including ones that change depending on the element) and
all possible values.
</p>
<p>
To see if a property is implemented then look in the src/codegen/foproperties.xml file.
</p>
<p>
To see if a particular element uses this property then look in the element code. This is generally found in the package org.apache.fop.fo.flow.*.
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="Property Resolution">
<p>
This is support for the functions in property values that evaluate some
expression.
Better support for resolution including support for "inherit" and values
with lists.
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="Validity Checking">
<p>
Check the validity of children for a particular element to ensure
there are no invalid children. Should help process the layout better.
</p>
</s3>
</s2>
<s2 title="Processing Improvements">
<s3 title="Image Handling">
<p>
Needs to be a bit more solid.
Allow for direct insertion of jpeg images in svg into the pdf.
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="Configuration">
<p>
Support for avalon. Better multithread handling.
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="More PDF Outputs">
<p>
Support for streaming and linearized pdf to help with different
deployement of pdf documents.
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="i18n in awt viewer">
<p>
Use proper i18n handling for awt viewer.
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="better abstraction of rendering classes">
<p>
put all common rendering processes into an abstract class that has
no dependancies on any specific renderers.
</p>
</s3>
</s2>
<s2 title="Enhancements">
<s3 title="font handling">
<p>
Need better handling of font names, since a font can have several names.
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="user agent">
<p>
A user agent (or some similar thing) is needed to handle adjustable
values, such as setting dpi resolution.
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="input from url">
<p>
be able to specify a url as the input fo (or xml, xsl) documents.
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="improve text handling in svg">
<p>
support (better) the direct rendering of text into pdf graphics
and other similair outputs
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="stream encoding">
<p>
Support for different encoding on different types of streams
in pdf document.
For example images and text.
</p>
</s3>
<s3 title="PDF Graphic State">
<p>
Add support for the pdf graphic state for use with transparency
in pdf 1.4.
