[daisy] PNGs and PDFs

[Jill Giboney]

Hi Andreas -

Are you talking about JAI on a Linux system perhaps? I have installed JAI
every time I have installed a Daisy system, but I have always installed it
on Windows systems. I have tried to generate PDFs with PNGs with different
Daisy versions on various servers, but always get this message:

HTTP ERROR: 500
com/sun/media/jai/codec/FileCacheSeekableStream
RequestURI=/Documentation/g3/139-QFLOW3.pdf

Thank you for your help,

Vance, like described in the installation intructions, simply install
Java Advanced Imaging
and you should ne fine.
JAI can be found here: https://jai.dev.java.net/binary-builds.html

I recently moved the daisy demo site to another machine and forgot to
install JAI on this server, that's why it did not work on the daisy
demo site. I fixed that already.

Good luck

Andreas
