Hmm, I see,
You probably want to have a change mark in the left margin, right?
No mechanism for that in XSL-FO, but that can be done in your case:
1. set a negative margin-left to your fo:table
2. insert a first fo:table-column (width property is the positive value
of margin-left
3. on fo:table-body (& header & footer), set the start-indent property
to "0cm" (due to inheritance mechanism of margin-left)
4. in each fo:table-row, insert a first fo:table-cell containing an
empty fo:block
5. if you want the left bar, set the border-left property of this new
fo:table-cell
That works both with FOP 0.92beta and FOP TRUNK.
Here is the snippet:
<fo:table table-layout="fixed" width="4cm" margin-left="-20pt">
<fo:table-column column-width="20pt"/>
<fo:table-column column-width="1cm"/>
<fo:table-column column-width="3cm"/>
<fo:table-body start-indent="0cm">
<fo:table-row>
<fo:table-cell border-left="solid black 3pt">
<fo:block/>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block> </fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block>
text for an extra line in the table row
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>
