Re[2]: [xep-support] XEP processing instruction bug?

Hello Geoff,

Does it work if you exclude your post-processing code (set
pageAreaHandler to null)? Post-processing could be the source of the
problem, because PI consumed by backends and your XEPContentHandler
may fail to translate PI to the actual backend.
Which version of XEP you are using?

GL> No, I am passing the DOMSource directly to render. Here is the relevant

GL> DOMSource source = new DOMSource(doc.getDocumentElement(), sysId);
GL> FOTarget target = new FOTarget(stream, format);
GL> XEPLogger logger = new XEPLogger();
GL> if (pageAreaHandler == null) {
GL> xep.render(source, target, logger);
GL> } else {
GL> ContentHandler generator = xep.createGenerator(target, logger);
GL> XEPContentHandler myGenerator =
GL> new XEPContentHandler(generator, pageAreaHandler);
GL> xep.render(source, myGenerator, logger);
GL> }
