FOP is ultimately a mathematical entity, so we should be able to avoid the matter-of-opinion conclusions that would lead to multiple layout strategies. I see FOP's goals as twofold: 1.) Generate multiple document types accurately. 2.) Generate a high number of very large documents in a very short amount of time, with "high", "very large", and "very short" taken to their mathematical limits. While there can be plenty of discussion of how best to obtain #1 and #2, once it is determined that solution A takes x seconds and solution B takes x + 2 seconds, you tend to go with solution A. So over the long term, multiple layout strategies may not be needed. Glen __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Search - Faster. Easier.
