Maestro You mentioned that the use of <fo:block white-space-collapse="false" > preserves the line breaks in the text. This is presicely the behavior I actually want in my PDF processing. If this is non-conformant as you mentioned what should I do to maintain the linebreaks / newline feed present in the database ?
Thanks Manoj The Web Maestro <[EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mail.com> cc: Subject: Re: Is it posible to insert a new line in a xml tag to change the view of a 02/11/2005 12:24 PDF file PM Please respond to fop-user I think what Juan wants to use is white-space-collapse="false": ==== http://xml.apache.org/fop/fo.html#fo-preformat Preformatting Content Sometimes it is desirable to retain linebreaks and hard spaces, and to get preformatted text to pass through without being changed. The XSL-FO specification provides some properties for this: white-space-collapse and linefeed-treatment. In FOP, use white-space-collapse="false" on an enclosing block. Warning Due to a bug in current versions of FOP, setting white-space-collapse="false" will also preserve line breaks in the text. Do not rely on this behavior, as it is non-conformant and will be changed. ==== Cheers!
