Hi Jeremias,

I'm not trying to upset the apple cart.

Your argument is valid because there is
probably no way of having a zero height paragraph in RTF (is this true? I know nothing about RTF.). The work around gives a virtual zero height paragraph (I've used 0.1pt) which as I said is acceptable. But the behaviour in my original case is different to the PDF renderer in that the borders wrapped around the 2 paragraphs whereas in a PDF each paragraph was bordered separately

FWIW I used MS Word to alter the bordering on the paragraphs and was not able to get the desired outcome without making the padding dimensions different.

As I said this is minor. I think it would be right for the renderer to only put in an empty height line or to respect the desired bordering (or whatever other attributes there are) if that's possible. If not then there is no problem and besides the work around is easy.

In continuation of my deserved flattery - you and you guys are doing a great job! :-)

Cheers

Tim

Hi Jeremias,

Sorry about nagging follow up. You are right - I didn't see your
answer- my bad. 

A while back I did what  you suggested and it didn't work with just
aspace in a block. To make it work I used a zero width non
joinercharacter in the block  i.e.  0x200D and it renders with what
iseffectively an empty paragraph.

I would've thought an empty block would be rendered in RTF as an
emptyparagraph regardless of the FO attributes, so whilst the work
around iseasy and the problem very minor I do think this is a problem.
    

Well, an empty fo:block in PDF doesn't result in an empty line. The
empty block collapses to zero height. FOP should largely behave the same
way with PDF and RTF, so IMO the behaviour is correct.

  
Thank you very much for all your help this time and for the
countlesstimes you've helped others.
    

:-)
