Appears to be true even if there is only ONE space character where the formatter decides to break...
My example wasn't very good, but there were never sequence of more than one space character. This particular data also had no newline characters at all. I'm using FOP to produce a PDF from data users input into a database, using an HTML textarea input object. They are free to use newlines, indenting and spacing as they want. I never know how they are going to format it, so that's the reason for linefeed-treatment="preserve" white-space-treatment="preserve". I'm going to try to "school" my users to start each new line with a space, including the first one. That seems to fix it.

Yes, this is a consequence of 'white-space-treatment="preserve"'. Currently, the layout-algorithm produces suboptimal results, since, if there is a sequence of space characters, the algorithm will prefer a break before the last one, making that one end up as the first character on the next line. (see also Bugzilla 45097: https:// issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45097) As far as I can derive from your example, you may be able to get around it by either using 'white-space-treatment="ignore-if-following- linefeed"' or not specifying it at all (= default 'ignore'), since you don't seem to have blocks of preformatted text (with indenting that should be preserved). HTH!
