Thanks. That's the clue I needed. When I set the cell border to 0.2mm (as opposed to 0.02mm), the background does not bleed in the last example I posted.
I will do more experiments, this time working with my original XSLT stylesheet (which outputs a roughly 160kb FO file), and see if that corrects my problem. If that fixes it, I will post the answer here so that the solution makes it into the list archive. This may be a candidate for the existing FAQs on the FOP website. -----Original Message----- From: J.Pietschmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 03, 2004 4:39 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: FW: Border issue Zaleski, Matthew (M.E.) wrote: > Is there any hope of using background color (or a workaround that > achieves the same effect) in 0.20.5?

A border width of 0.02mm very small though, you might run into roundoff problems (one of Acrobat Reader's most infamous weak point...)
