Just a little follow up: It worked well with SVG. I used letter-spacing
to fit each digit of a number into boxes. Here's some exapmle code:
<fo:block>
<fo:instream-foreign-object>
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="48mm" height="5mm"
viewBox="0 0 480 50">
<text x="155" y="45" font-family="Frutiger" font-size="40"
letter-spacing="7.8%">
<xsl:value-of select="kundennr"/>
</text>
</svg>
</fo:instream-foreign-object>
</fo:block>
> Try to do that using SVG. As FOP does not implement, yet, some features
> necessary for these things you might have better luck using SVG which
> has a richer feature set (I think) for manipulating single characters.
> I'm going to do the same today. :-)
