Hi!

I a 2 column document we're creating, the designers have decided that they
want to include a black vertical line in the gap between the columns. Any
good idea on how to accomplish this?

There are a couple of ways to do this:

1. border-right (and an optional border-left):

<fo:table-row>
  <fo:table-cell border-right="1pt solid #000000">
    <fo:block>
      Column 1 Content
    </fo:block>
  </fo:table-cell>
  <fo:table-cell border-left="1pt solid #000000">
    <fo:block>
      Column 2 Content
    </fo:block>
  </fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>

2. A 'third' column between the two w/ a bg color:

<fo:table-row>
  <fo:table-cell background-color="#ffffff">
    <fo:block>
      Column 1 Content
    </fo:block>
  </fo:table-cell>
  <fo:table-cell background-color="#000000">
    <fo:block>
      #160;
    </fo:block>
  </fo:table-cell>
  <fo:table-cell background-color="#ffffff">
    <fo:block>
      Column 2 Content
    </fo:block>
  </fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>

Now if you want the center to be 'white' with just a line, you could also put padding inside of the content columns (and still use the border-left/right).

Hope this helps!
