Hello again Vincent,

Thanks for looking into this. Presumptuous of me to think the fo would be sufficient.

I'll try some colouring experiments to verify but I'm nearly certain there is plenty of room for the two lines. It's a two column layout and there is several lines of text in the left column at the same position we expect these to errant lines will go in the right column.

I'm not sure how best to get my environment to you: Just to view the problem, the pdf (2.5Mb) might be best? I am indeed using a couple of non-standard fonts. I could tar up the source xml, stylesheet, fonts and images (5Mb) if your game for that. Probably use yousendit.

Pick your poison. :)

It would also be possible for me to run inside an ide, if there are any specific spots you can identify for me to "stop and look around".

Hi Rob,

I can’t reproduce your problem. In my version the mentioned paragraph
ends up in the middle of the 2nd column of page 14. That’s probably
because I don’t have the fonts you are using in your documents, and
maybe neither the images.

I’d say that this is due to the widows property whose value is 2 by
default. Maybe in your version there is space for only one line, which
would result in a widow line on the 2nd column (the last line of the
paragraph ending up alone at the top of column 2). To avoid that FOP
pushes the last two lines to the next column.

Try setting a background colour on the region-body to better see its
boundaries, and confirm that there is space only for one line.

Otherwise, maybe you can send me your fonts offline and I’ll try to
reproduce your version.

HTH,
Vincent

Two lines of text are unnecessarily being delayed to the following
page/column, presumably being dragged along with the following heading which
does not fit at the bottom of the preceding column?  The heading itself does
have keep-with-next, but not the fractured paragraph.

In the attached fo, the example can be found across the boundaries of pages
14, 15 (on 8.5 X 11 paper).  The following chunk gets split leaving the text
from 'ings are nonspecific' onward on the following page.

    <fo:block text-align="justify" space-before="6pt">Intracranial MEs
    are extremely rare but have been reported in the ventricles and
    brain parenchyma.  Imaging findings are nonspecific but are
    generally those of a cyst with enhancing nodule.</fo:block>
