getting blank page when printing with fop 1.1

问题

using fop1.1 , i'm trying to print a document using the intermediate file method disscussed in this section fop intermediate format

the problem is that it prints a blank page in the 3rd step .

this is the FO file i'm using for my tests :

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" xmlns:fox="http://xml.apache.org/fop/extensions">
   <fo:layout-master-set>
      <fo:simple-page-master master-name="all" page-height="5.4cm" page-width="9.56cm" margin-top="0cm" margin-bottom="0cm" margin-left="0cm" margin-right="0cm">
         <fo:region-body margin-top="0cm" margin-bottom="0cm" background-color="transparent" />
      </fo:simple-page-master>
   </fo:layout-master-set>
   <fo:page-sequence master-reference="all">
      <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
         <fo:block>
            <fo:block-container absolute-position="absolute" top="5px" left="11px" height="30px" width="300px" overflow="hidden">
               <fo:block font-weight="normal" font-style="italic" font-family="Arial">852147</fo:block>
            </fo:block-container>
            <fo:block-container absolute-position="absolute" top="50px" left="10px" height="30px" width="300px" overflow="hidden">
               <fo:block font-weight="bold" font-style="normal" font-family="Arial" font-size="10pt">nabil</fo:block>
            </fo:block-container>
            <fo:block-container absolute-position="absolute" top="100px" left="10px" height="30px" width="300px" overflow="hidden">
               <fo:block font-weight="bold" font-style="normal" font-family="Arial" font-size="10pt">madara</fo:block>
            </fo:block-container>
         </fo:block>
      </fo:flow>
   </fo:page-sequence>
</fo:root>

config file

      </filterList>

      <fonts>
      <auto-detect/>

      </fonts>


    </renderer>
</renderers>

</fop>

steps :

fop -c cfg.xml -fo myfile.fo -at application/pdf myfile.at.xml
fop -c cfg.xml -atin myfile.at.xml -pdf myfile.pdf (the pdf file is generated correctly)
fop -atin myfile.at.xml -print ( a blank page is printed using pdf creator)

回答1:

There seems to be a problem with the AWT renderer (the print renderer uses the AWT renderer) in FOP 1.1. I tried your example using the following as your step 3:

fop -atin myfile.at.xml -awt

I noticed the same result - a blank page. (NOTE: to get the AWT render to work on Windows, you will need to edit fop.bat so that -Djava.awt.headless=false).

I found it strange that no errors were logged to the console, and I couldn't find any bugs reported in FOP's JIRA instance. So I decided to have a play with FOP 1.0.

The workaround - download FOP 1.0 instead of FOP 1.1. Use the following as your Step 3:

fop -atin myfile.at.xml -print all

NOTE: The all argument is used to print all pages. Omitting this argument fails in 1.0, but has been fixed in 1.1.

Hope the above is a workable solution for you! It seems very much as though there's an unresolved/unreported issue with FOP 1.1 and the AWT renderer. :(
