  <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
        <link href="http://java.sun.com/products/jimi/">Jimi</link>
        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 <link href="embedding.html">Embedding</link> 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>

  <p>Important Information:</p>
    <ul>

         <link href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xsl-20011015/">XSL-FO Version 1.0
         W3C Recommendation</link> 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
           <link href="http://java.sun.com/products/jimi/">Jimi</link>,
           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>
