I'm seeing a issue with the text-align attribute being ignored in
headers. For example (from pdfoutline.fo in the examples directory):
<fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-before">
<fo:block>
<fo:inline text-align="start" font-size="10pt" font-family="serif"
line-height="14pt" color="blue" >
This is not the latest Fop documentation, but just an fo example.
</fo:inline>
<fo:inline text-align="end" font-size="10pt" font-family="serif"
line-height="14pt" color="blue" >
Page <fo:page-number/>
</fo:inline>
</fo:block>
</fo:static-content>
This should align "...not the latest FOP documentation" to the left
and
the page numbers to the right.
Nope, FOP is perfectly compliant here.
Explanation: text-align is not applicable to an fo:inline. An
fo:inline ALWAYS inherits the text-align properties from the ancestor
fo:block (in this case the default value of "start").
[Note: An interesting side-effect that may be difficult to grasp is
that any fo:block nested in the fo:inline will inherit the value
specified on the fo:inline.]
FOP cannot warn you about this, because it is perfectly legal to
specify non-applicable properties (mainly used to take advantage of
property inheritance)
Solution: the quickest way to achieve the effect you're after, is
probably to use an fo:table.
HTH!
