Having problems exporting a PDF file...

[Arialle]

I am not sure what is wrong with my document. I even selected the entire document and pressed the delete key to see if a blank page would export, which it did not. Any help is extremely appreciated. I have been using library for a bit less than a month and I am enjoying what I am seeing. Thanks in advance~!

The stack trace is as follows:

Just in case, here is my code.

         // convert to PDF

      catch(Exception e){
         e.printStackTrace();

Extra added information: I did try to google around for a solution and saw something that mentioned about having a bigger heap space. My heap is already set to 150m, so I did not think that I needed any more.

Just in case, I am currently using docx4j-2.8.1 jar file. I have tried docx4j-2.8.3 and still got the same problem.

Hi, I tested your docx at http://webapp.docx4java.org/OnlineDemo/ ... f_fop.html
which uses current docx4j nightly and FOP post 1.1 nightly, and it works fine.

I looked at the intermediate XSLFO output using http://webapp.docx4java.org/OnlineDemo/ ... sl_fo.html

The layout-master-set is there, then after that:

Syntax: [ Download ] [ Show ]

Parsed in 0.003 seconds, using GeSHi 1.0.8.4

There may be an issue in the version of FOP you are using where the document starts with a table; or it could be that 2.8.1 is omitting "fo:layout-master-set" in some edge case.

For the second possibility, try docx4j current nightly.

For the first possibility, if you are using FOP 1.0, try FOP 1.1.

Alternatively, try inserting a paragraph at the top of the first page containing some whitespace.

If neither of those work, then a current nightly, plus FOP from SVN (available in our downloads) will be necessary.

Thank you for the help. I am still in the process of discovering a solution to my problems. The link that you gave is extremely helpful. Using the .FO file did not generate a good enough representation of the PDF file, which tells me that even if I did got the nightlies, the resulting PDF would not be good enough.
