Hi

I have a project that needs a column count of 4 in the simple-page-master -> region-body, but in the page

I want to be able to span just 2 of these columns and then continue to process the page with 4 columns.

This requirement cannot be fulfilled using the XSL-FO 1.1 toolset.


I have searched far and wide to solve this in fop but all that seems to be supported is span=”all”. I have

found XEP but I wondered if anyone has found a better solution at all using fop or a free option?

XEP has an extension element (i.e. a feature not available in XSL-FO 1.1) rx:flow-section which allows some blocks to span a subset of the page columns.

There is no equivalent in FOP. However, FOP is open source, so please feel free to download the source code and implement the extension yourself :)
