Hi Chuck
Thanks for your incredibly fast response.
I moved the fop.jar file from the build directory of the expanded
fop-0.20.5 directory to my /Library/Java/Extensions/ and it compiled.
Great, I'm moving again thanks to your nudge.
The 'import' instruction is now happy, though I don't really know how
the name "org.apache.fop.apps.*;" leads to
/Library/WebObjects/Extensions/fop.jar. I'm also more than a little
puzzled by the presence of a /bib directory with a number of other .jar
files. It was these I was attempting to use by placing them in
/Library/java/Extensions, to no visible effect. I really don't know
what they are there for.
Thank you for your time, and for providing the push to get me going
again.
Denis
