Overview

• Add PDF support into Jeeves. A new type of service could be defined using the following configuration :

          <service name="pdf.search">
              <class name=".services.main.Search">
                  <param name="maxSummaryKeys" value="1000" />
              </class>
  
              <output sheet="portal-present-fop.xsl" file="true" contentType="application/pdf">
                  <call name="mdresults" class=".services.main.Result" />
                  <call name="siteURL" class=".guiservices.util.GetSiteURL" />
              </output>
          </service>
  

• sheet = Name of the XSLT transformation which produce FO (eg. "portal-present-fop.xsl")
• file="true"
• contentType="application/pdf"

If a file="true" and contentType="application/pdf", Jeeves will use FOP (​http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/) to produce a pdf document.
