xmlroff 0.3.6 is almost ready, despite Stefan's efforts to remind me of
essential features.
It is, I think, simple and obvious to continue with fo:external-graphic
improvements for xmlroff 0.3.7.
The tasks for xmlroff 0.3.7 as I see them are:
- Support 'http:' (and other) protocols in URI specifications
- Improve handling unresolvable 'src' URI specifications (to be done after
'http:' support)
- Handle more fo:external-graphic properties and handle their
interdependencies:
- Handle when one of 'content-width' or 'content-height' is specified
- Handle 'scale' attribute
It would be good to also handle non-auto ipd and bpd and 'display-align'
and 'text-align' but that will take more effort.
- Add a FoImageManager or similar so the same image isn't opened multiple
times
- Handle areas that can't be broken
Regards,
Tony.
