In the same vein... I'm trying to put together a catalogue index, which
is dependent on <fo:leader>. I'm also getting a ragged right-hand margin
from 0.20.5rc2 (see to GET from
http://coolbox.seseit.com/~rob/fop.0.20.5rc2.html), but when I used the
last of yesterday's snapshot from the CVS repository
(xml-fop_20030309052748.tar.gz) the output looks worse rather than
better (sorry I've not got a link for this).
The problem is, the lines are correctly aligned during layout, in the
PDF renderer the "(912)" strings have exactly the same x-position and
area width. I can only guess something weird happens with the space
calculation between the leader and the word on the line end.
Also , the space at the block end is occasionally a problem.
As a workaround:
- Use leader-alignment="reference-area". This guarantees the leaders
end at the same x-position if the followig word has the same length
as on the line before. It also looks better.
- Write your XSLT so that no extra space occurs at the end of the line,
i.e.
...080)</fo:inline></fo:block>
instead of
...080)</fo:inline>
</fo:block>
This looks already much better.
