Hi, all I added extra information to AreaContainers, and modified XMLRenderer so that it is really starting to become a useful tool. Best way to get a flavour of it is to actually run it: java org.apache.fop.apps.Fop -fo fofile -s -at areatreefile The -s short-circuits the XML output at BlockArea level; leave it out and you'll see everything.
