Hi Vincent, Upon a closer look, it doesn't quite solve the main, initial problem: If the headline takes more than one line, it spills into the table. If I could be sure it's always only one line, I could as well let the header extend for 12pt+14.4pt, write "Headline..." into the header and let the body start below. But if the headline is "Headline for an example with regard to headlines in pages for tables", how much would padding-before.length be?

Actually you would specify a 'normal' height for the region-before, and set the overflow property to 'visible'. When the marker for the table is retrieved, then it would overflow the region-before and appear in the body. The second part of the trick is to enclose the table into a block with padding-before.conditionality set to 'retain'. That way, when the table is broken over columns it will be 'shifted' from the top of the region-body, leaving room for the marker. Provided that you don't specify any background on the region-body you should get the desired result. You normally can safely ignore the overflow warnings FOP will issue. > Regards, > > Georg Datterl HTH, Vincent --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: fop-users-unsubscr...@xmlgraphics.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: fop-users-h...@xmlgraphics.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: fop-users-unsubscr...@xmlgraphics.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: fop-users-h...@xmlgraphics.apache.org
