Hi Pascal Thanks for getting back to me. If we can't use float could we use an external-graphic and the text will automatically wrap around the image correctly the same as html? Thanks Barry -----Original Message----- From: Pascal Sancho [mailto:[email protected]] Hi Barry, Unfortunately fo:float is not implemented in FOP (see [1]). I see no workaround if you require exactly that kind of layout. Anyway, you still can choose either a fo:list or a fo:table to mimic what you want, if a 2 column contruction give you acceptable result.
