[Barcode4j-users] FOP 1.1 / Barcode4j 2.1 / PageInfo.fromProcessingHints not returning FOP page number

[John K. <kou...@gm...>]

Hello

I am using FOP 1.1 w/ barcode4j.2.1.  I cannot get the #page-number#
functionality in the barcode message to work.  It always returns 000.
However, the rest of my PDF417 barcode works just fine.

In a previous thread it was suggested to use FOP 1.0 and set the FOP
configuration <prefer-renderer>true</prefer-renderer> to get the
page-number substitution to work.  I can get that to work.  However, the
same setting <prefer-renderer>true</prefer-renderer> will not work with FOP
1.1.

When I researched the code it seems the PageInfo.fromProcessingHints()
looks for page-number and page-name, which do not exist in the Map passed
in from any of the ImageConverters, such as ImageConverterBarcode2G2D.  The
documentation says these should come from the xmlgraphics-commons library.
However, even with TRUNK versions of FOP and xmlgraphics-commons, I do not
see anywhere where these properties are set.

Does fop 1.1 currently support the #page-number# replacement in any
fashion?
