   <title>FOP 0.20.5</title>
   <p>This is the last planned release in the 0.20.x series (aka maintenance branch).</p>
   <p>Important changes since the last release (0.20.4):</p>
   <ul>
     <li>Some hyphenation patterns (cs, da, de, de_DR, el, en, en_US, fr, nl,
       no, sk, tr) have been removed due to licensing reasons
       (en_GB hyphenation has been renamed to en).
       We're still working on this issue
       (see <link href="http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/FOPAudits/March2003">
       Wiki</link> for details).
     </li>
     <li>Documentation is now built with <link href="http://xml.apache.org/forrest/">
         Forrest</link> (version 0.4). You need to install Forrest if you want build the docs
         yourself. (See
         <link href="http://xml.apache.org/forrest/your-project.html">Using Forrest</link>)
     </li>
     <li>The following JARs have been updated:
         Xerces to version 2.2.1, Xalan to version 2.4.1 and Batik to version 1.5beta4.
     </li>
     <li>FOP has been compiled with Jimi support, but Jimi is not included in the
         FOP distribution. To use it, first download
         <link href="http://java.sun.com/products/jimi/">Jimi</link>, then extract
         the archive, then
         copy JimiProClasses.zip to FOP's lib dir and rename it to jimi-1.0.jar.
     </li>
     <li>FOP has been compiled with JAI support, but JAI is not included in the
         FOP distribution. To use it, simply install
         <link href="http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jai">JAI</link>.
     </li>
     <li>Links in PDF won't generate multiple link rectangles anymore. If this causes
         a problem you can set the system property "links.merge" to "no".
     </li>
     <li>FOP has been compiled with cryptography support. See <link href="pdfencryption.html">
       PDF encryption</link> for details about installation and usage.
     </li>
     <li>The behaviour of leader has changed. See
       <link href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19341">bug #19341</link>,
       <link href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19465">bug #19465</link>
       and <code>leader.fo</code> (examples).
     </li>
     <li>
       For a more detailed list of changes, see the CHANGES file in the root of the
       FOP distribution.
     </li>
   </ul>

 <section>
   <title>FOP 0.20.4</title>
   <p>Important changes since 0.20.3:</p>
     <ul>
        <li>FOP should now work with any JAXP1.1 compliant parser/transformer.
          It has been successfully tested with Xerces/Xalan, Saxon and JDK1.4
          (which includes Crimson and Xalan).
        </li>
        <li>The following JARs have been updated:
          Xerces to version 2.0.1, Xalan to version 2.3.1 and Batik to version 1.5beta2.
       </li>
       <li>FOP has been compiled with Jimi support this time
         but you still have to download
         <link href="http://java.sun.com/products/jimi/">Jimi</link>
         and copy it to lib/ to get PNG support (no need to build FOP yourself though).
       </li>
       <li>Building FOP with JDK1.2 does not work. Running is ok except
         support for additional truetype fonts in AWT Viewer.
       </li>
       <li>Logging has been changed from LogKit to Avalon's Logger Interface.
         (see <link href="embedding.html">Embedding</link> for details).
       </li>
       <li>Building under JDK 1.4:
          You need to add a method in
          <code>src/org/apache/fop/svg/PDFGraphics2D.java</code>
          (search for jdk1.4 and remove the comments)
       </li>
       <li>To decrease the size of the distributions, ant, xml-docs, design-docs
         and the hyphenation sources have been removed from the binary distribution.
         Javadocs have been removed from the source distribution (use
         <code>build javadocs</code> to generate them).
       </li>
       <li>Documentaion generation is broken in the maintenance branch at the moment
        (Stylebook needs xerces1). The docs for this release are generated from the trunk.
       </li>
       <li>
         For a more detailed list of changes, see the CHANGES file in the root of the FOP distribution.
       </li>
       </ul>

          W3C Recommendation</link> syntax. So don't forget to update your
          Stylesheets:
          <br/>Just rename the <code>master-name</code> property to <code>master-reference</code>
          on <code>fo:page-sequence</code>, <code>fo:single-page-master-reference</code>,
          <code>fo:repeatable-page-master-reference</code> and

        <li>JDK 1.2 (or later) is required</li>
        <li>Jimi has been removed for licensing reasons
          <br/>If you need PNG support you have to download
            <link href="http://java.sun.com/products/jimi/">Jimi</link>,
            copy it to lib/ and build FOP yourself</li>
       <li>Building under JDK 1.4:
         <br/>You need to add a method in
          <code>src/org/apache/fop/svg/PDFGraphics2D.java</code>
