Hi, Miah,
 
I can answer your first question. Rather than an asterisk, use the code for a bullet symbol, such as •
 
Note that you need to be careful to choose bullet symbols that are within FOP's default character set (or within the font you specify with a font metrics file, if you go that route). As it happens, • works without having to use a font metrics file.

Subject: Using bulleted points

Hi
 
Two short questions.
 
1)How can I add bullted points to my lists-blocks.  At  the moment I can only do numbers or asetrix.
 
2)I am displaying an address using xml as follows:
 <address>Alan Smith </address>
 <address>98 Frogwell 
 </address>
 <address>Chippenham 
 </address>
 <address>Wiltshire 
 </address>
 <address>SN14 OBR 
 </address>
 <date>12/03/06
 </date>
 
and the xsl template:
 
<xsl:template match="address">
       <fo:block
                
                 line-height="10pt"
                 text-align="left"
                 space-after.optimum="5pt">
  <xsl:value-of select="."/>
  
 </fo:block>
</xsl:template>
 
Now when I use FOP 0.92 to generate the output it displays the address just fine in pdf format.  However when I produce rtf output it make the gap between the address lines slightly bigger.  Is this a beta issue and is there a work around.  I imagine it can't be the xsl as the pdf does it right.
 
Thanks
