Here is an idea for dynamically changing text size that might work (not
tested):
<fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body" font-family="Helvetica"
start-indent="1em" font-size="8pt">
<xsl:attribute name="font-size">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="string-length('the text you are writting') >
500">
6pt
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
8pt
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:attribute>
Hope this helps.
Luke

Subject: Fitting the text content in ONE page
Hi,
I have a caveat page that is filled with dynamically generated text
contents. I am wondering is there any way that I can keep them in only
ONE page no matter how many of them? What I can think of is to reduce
the font-size so that it can fit into 1 page. But can I dynamically
change the font-size? Or is there any other way that I can reach this
goal?
Thanks a lot,
Gang

Subject: Re: image running off the page
I was thinking something similar to this myself. I do have the
dimensions of
each image in the XML document I'm processing.
I can do some calculations to determine if an image should go on the
next
page or not.
Thanks for the feedback,
Luke
