Thanks! Those are great news! I'll test this along the day and report
back results here! It seems that I have to consider to subscribe css4j
as well :-)

Yeap, but there must exist a "link" between xls-fo documents and TeX. I
am sure you remember a former discussion about mathematical
expressions... I think it has been not much active lately. The point is
that in scientific environments. TeX or TeX-based "languages" are a must
(nowadays), so we have to find how to move out our documents from XWiki
to TeX and vice-versa. I must recognize that I have not advanced since
the times of this named discussion :-( I'll catch up with this issue!
Cheers,
Ricardo
