Hi All
I'd like to ask what neccessary configuration steps must be done in order
PDF production went through the new PDF emitter instead of FOP. I've
deployed M3 and FOP seems to be active by default.If i remove fop the PDF
is not getting generated .I have put itext-1.3.jar in
\plugins\org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.emitter.fo_1.0.1/lib but what i
found that the M3 release is still using FOP .
Waiting for the Reply.
Regards
Ashwin

Tomas,
Thanks for the great efforts to test out these reports. We are looking
into the performance issues, but can not guarantee that the performance
will match FO in 2.0 final release.
BIRT 2.0 engine API now supports multiple emitters outputting same format,
i.e., PDF. The IRenderTask and IRunAndRenderTask now support setEmitterID
method, so that you can pick an emitter. So by modifying viewer, you may
keep two emitters coexist. ANother way to keep both is to modify the FO
emitter, for example, to output a format FOPDF. Then the two can coexist
without the setEmitterID call.
Hope this helps.

For what its worth, I'm having similar issues with PDF generation. I'm
using a standard JDBC connection to SQL Server. I've confirmed that
Tomcat is monopolizing CPU when PDF is generated-it isn't a data issue.
The query in SQL Server is very efficient. On M2, run time was about 10
sec, is now 30-40 sec.
Thanks-
