Re: [xep-support] configuration for Cocoon

Hi,
Thanks for that. I have the pdf rendering now, but it does not want to
embed the images.
The XSLT is creating XSL:FO which invokes images like this:

<fo:external-graphic content-width="8cm" scaling="uniform">
         <xsl:attribute
name="src">url('../images/the_image.gif')</xsl:attribute>
</fo:external-graphic>

The folder structure looks like this:
root/
root/images has all the images
root/xml has the xml, and is the final location of the
pdf
root/xsl has the xslt

On the local machine, running XEP from within oXygen, this works fine:
XEP finds the images (GIFs, JPEGs and PDFs) and builds them into the
file. On Cocoon, with the same folder structure, the images are not
retrieved; the PDF output is built with "missing image" placeholders.

I followed the included instructions to edit Cocoon's global sitemap
and I used the example sitemap (hammer) as a base for the project's
sitemap, which looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<map:sitemap xmlns:map="http://apache.org/cocoon/sitemap/1.0">
   <map:components>
     <map:generators default="file"/>
     <map:transformers default="xslt"/>
     <map:readers default="resource"/>
     <map:serializers default="html">
       <map:serializer mime-type="application/pdf" name="fo2pdf"
         src="com.renderx.xepx.cocoon.Serializer">
         <parameter name="com.renderx.xep.CONFIG" type="string"
           value="/Applications/RenderX/xep.xml"/>
       </map:serializer>
       <map:serializer mime-type="application/postscript" name="fo2ps"
         src="com.renderx.xepx.cocoon.Serializer">
         <parameter name="com.renderx.xep.CONFIG" type="string"
           value="/Applications/RenderX/xep.xml"/>
       </map:serializer>
     </map:serializers>
     <map:selectors default="browser"/>
     <map:matchers default="wildcard"/>
   </map:components>
   <map:pipelines>
     <map:pipeline>
       <map:match pattern="**.pdf">
         <map:generate src="xml/{1}.xml"/>
         <map:transform type="xinclude"/>
         <map:transform type="xslt" src="xsl/tei_ach_corpus_to_pdf.xsl"/>
         <map:serialize type="fo2pdf"/>
       </map:match>
     </map:pipeline>
   </map:pipelines>
</map:sitemap>
