How to get PDF images working in Forrest
----------------------------------------
Forrest uses Apache FOP for rendering images. FOP cannot handle all image
types natively, and requires third-party jars to be added. For an overview,
see:
http://xml.apache.org/fop/graphics.html
Specifically, to get PNGs working in PDFs, download Jimi from
http://java.sun.com/products/jimi/
Then unpack the distribution and copy JimiProClasses.zip to
lib/core/jimi-1.0.jar.
(due to Sun's licensing, we cannot redistribute Jimi with Forrest)
