Doug Tidwell from IBMs developer works had a very in depth (and very good) session about FOP at apacheCon (the developerworks toot-o-matic uses it).
He said he couldn't get keep-with-next to work (something about blind tables I think). Anyhow he said developerworks would be publishing a very in depth tutorial on FOP in december so keep you eyes open on http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/. I can send you the pdf of his presentation if you want (all 228 pages)....anybody know what the copyright issues are (can't find anything on the disk)?
