Hello,

What Java version are you using ? Do you get the same error with Sun Microsystem's Java 1.5.0 or 1.5.0_02 or a previous version, like 1.4.2_05 ? Does it happen with the install kit that includes a Java virtual machine ?

Best regards,
Sorin

That is strange. What is your platform, Java version, <oXygen/> version ? Can you post a small sample that shows the problem ?

Sorin

Hello,

We corrected the user manual. It will be available in the next release of <oXygen/>. Thank you for pointing this out.

Hello, If the file is larger than 5 or 6 MB the display needs a large amount of memory so you should increase the maximum memory available to <oXygen/> more than 256 MB, probably 350 MB is enough. For instructions about how to do this please see http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-oxygen/memory-manageme...

Hello,

Just to note the conclusion - please make sure the width of the icon is not too large so that the FO processor must break the line because not all the text after the icon can be placed on the same line with the icon.

Hello,

Your sample document works for me Please export the scenarios to a file (menu Options - Export transformation scenarios), send the result file, the DocBook document and the .gif icon at support at oxygenxml dot com and specify the name of the scenario that you used.

Hello, To display small icons in running text without breaking the line use guibutton with a nested inlinemediaobject like this: <guibutton> <inlinemediaobject> <imageobject> <imagedata fileref="folder-name/icon-name.gif" format="GIF"/> </imageobject> </inlinemediaobject> </guibu...

Hello, A tip for the Mac OS X users who updated their systems to Mac OS X 10.3.9 and <oXygen/> unexpectedly quits with a "Segmentation fault" message or doesn't launch when the application icon is double-clicked: this is an issue recognized by Apple - check if you have the problem http://d...

The exact same settings works just fine from the oXygen standalone application, so maybe there is some bug in the eclipse plugin. Error 267 is ERROR_DIRECTORY - The directory name is invalid. Is this a known problem? I've been looking through the forums but haven't found anything on this topic. It ...

Hello Dave, It is looking for Java settings in the Windows Registry created by the J2SDK install kit. Probably these settings are broken. As a workaround please copy the the whole subdirectory JRE of the J2SDK install directory, that is C:\j2sdk1.4.2_05\jre to the <oXygen/> install directory - by de...

Hi,

I tried with the same fictive path and it worked. You use rewriteURI in your catalog ? For validation you need rewriteSystem or system. If it doesn't work please post your catalog file.

On the question of finding the ttf files, if the path is relative to the original Docbook document, (i.e., the one containing "<!DOCTYPE book ...") it implies that I must have separate copies of the fonts for every different document I am creating, either that, or I can only put my docume...

I would have to change each appearance of the character manually whenever I wish to generate the PDF file. The character appears over 200 times! This would render Docbook useless for any large project. Probably enclosing the special character in a <para> tag with a role attribute and providing spec...

When trying to display the output PDF, Acrobat gives the errors: "A font required for font substitution is missing" and then "Cannot find or create the font '1Ef314Impact'". I have no idea where this strange name is being generated. Finally I reproduced the error. You can see th...

Hello, The procedure explained in the article replaces the font for the whole document. To use a font only for a character in the PDF output you have to manually enclose that character alone in a <fo:block> element with the desired font-family in the intermediate FO document generated by the DocBook...

Hello,

Just make sure the paths in the LIB and FONT_DIR variables point to the right directories. Also make sure the java command is on a single line.

How do I get superscripts for footnote references? By overriding the template format.footnote.mark in a customization layer. The following is an example of such a layer that uses a font with a 60% size of the normal text font for the superscript references: <?xml version="1.0" encoding=&q...

Hi, Juts install Tiger, then install <oXygen/> and run it. <oXygen/> will use the Apple's Java VM installed on your system in the standard location /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/ so if this contains a Java 1.5 VM this will be used without any change to info.plist. Best Regards, Sorin

Hello, Use this as customization layer for A4 portrait pages without setting a param in the XSLT tab of the scenario edit dialog. The value of the param paper.type must be enclosed by double quotes: " ' A4 ' " . I tried it and it works. If you put USletter or A5 it will work also. <?xml ve...

Could you give a complete example that shows, say, how to change the paper size to A4? The demo at http://www.oxygenxml.com/demo/DocbookCustomization/docbookCustomization.html demonstrates how to create in <oXygen/> a simple DocBook customization layer that sets the output paper type and page orien...

Hello, It shouldn't be difficult especially with the predefined transformation scenarios in <oXygen/> that allow you to perform usual XSL transformations with just one mouse click. To transform a DocBook XML document to PDF just set the cursor in that XML document, press the toolbar button "Con...

Hi, You hit a limitation of the Trang converter. Trang can't generate a DTD from any XML document. Please use the second approach - the actions Learn Structure and Save Structure. See in the <oXygen/> User Guide "Procedure 4.8. To create a DTD" in the section "Creating DTDs" on t...

Hello, The functionality of the trial version is the same as in the purchased version. What do you mean to convert a XML document to XSL ? Usually a XSL stylesheet is used to convert a XML document to other XML document or to some output format (XHTML, PDF, etc). In <oXygen/> this is done with a tra...

Hello,

Yes this is a bug in the CSS validator and it will be fixed in a future version. Until then a simple workaround is to quote the URI.

Hi, I get no CSS validation error for the code: { background: url(foo/image.jpg); } Are you sure you are trying to validate this code in the CSS editor of the <oXygen/> Eclipse plugin ? To open this editor go to File -> New and select the entry CSS file or right-click on the CSS file in the navigato...

Hi stuerdan, The HelveticaNeue Roman font is a PostScript Type 1 font not a TrueType font. That means in the embed-file attribute you must specify the actual font data file not the font metrics file as you did in your FOP configuration file. From the Apache FOP site: When setting the embed-file attr...

Hello Jay, You get that error because the stylesheet date-time.xsl is not valid without importing string.xsl. This is needed because date-time.xsl uses at line 1073 the template 'to-upper' defined in string.xsl: <xsl:call-template name='str:to-upper'> <xsl:with-param name='text' select='$month'/> </...
