A procedure and its steps are processed as a fo:list-block and fo:list-items.  
So any note in a step is wrapped in an fo:list-body element.  It appears that 
FOP and Antenna House do not respect the space-after of the last item inside 
the fo:list-body.   It works in XEP.  I think it should respect that 
space-after, since a list-item is a normal block area, not a reference area 
like a table cell.

  Ooops, small correction: not the nongraphical admonitions title, the 
nongraphical admonition block itself.

  Hi again.

   

  I have customized the nongraphical admonitions title with space-before and 
space-after attributes:

   

  <fo:block             

            space-before.minimum="2.2em"

            space-before.optimum="2.5em"

            space-before.maximum="2.7em"

            space-after.minimum="2.2em"

            space-after.optimum="2.5em"

            space-after.maximum="2.7em"

            .

   

   

   

  This spacing appears to come out perfectly when the admonition occurs between 
ordinary paragraphs within a section. However, when they are within a step 
element within a procedure element, there is very little space after, just the 
ordinary space that occurs between one step and the next. 

   

  How come this doesn't work? Does the space between steps override any 
space-after settings of the last object within the step element?

   

  Thanks.

  Alan
