Hey Chris,

Thank you for replying to my question. I'd appreciate if you could give me some leads on how to insert 'ZWSP characters' and also if you could shed some light on 'Unicode Zero Width Space (​)', where you insert it after each character within the table-cell..to gain a successful word-break.

Thanks,
Roopesh

Hi,

0.90alpha1 is quite old now and there have been several releases that fix many bugs and since then. An upgrade is recommended although it won't fix the problem you are experiencing.

The field width assigned to the respective columns change dynamically according to the number of fields selected from View. The problem I have is when large strings get populated in the fields, they overlap with the data in the next column and word-wrapping does'nt seem to work.

The problem is that FOP's layout algorithm requires spaces in string in order to be able to break them up nicely. Enabling hyphenation can help but I see from below that didn't solve the problem in your case. The only other "workaround" is to insert ZWSP characters inbetween each character in the strings to be placed in table cells. This gives FOP more break possibilities and improves the chances of a good looking layout.
