Well, that’s already what this parameter is doing actually. Anyway, AFAIK this parameter doesn’t really introduce FOP extensions, but rather tweaks the output to make FOP handle it more nicely, by using plain XSL-FO tricks. So I think it’s safe enabling it. As to this particular problem: - you should first upgrade to the newest 1.73.2 stylesheets, the 1.69.1 are really old now. - I’ve experienced that enabling the ‘fop1.extensions’ parameter is not sufficient if you don’t specify column widths in the DocBook source. Well the warning will be different: “table-layout="fixed" and column-width unspecified => falling back to proportional-column-width(1)” If you add colspec elements in the source you should be ok. > - Line 1 of a paragraph overflows the available area. (fo:block, > location: 2/33495) Not sure you want to ignore this one. This usually means that some content goes in the margin, possibly resulting in text being clipped. > - The contents of row 1 are taller than they should be This is because a table row has a specified height but its content overflows it. You may want to determine how those heights are introduced (probably the default stylesheets, but it’s a bit surprising), and remove them. That said, appart from the annoying warning, the output will be fine.
