Thanks for all your efforts.

Will test your patch, deploy if happiness abounds.

I'm sorry about the custom fonts. Trouble is pulling them out will in many cases changing the font can cause shake in the text layout and undo the problem one is trying to report. Would it be possible to include fonts when necessary?

I've run out of the time I can allocate to this issue I'm afraid. I have
a fix but it needs to be cleaned up and tested.

The best way to avoid the problem is to fix all the overflow warnings
that you are getting. You probably want to fix them anyway since it may
lead to a better output.

If constraints prevent you from fixing them all, then you can try the
attached patch against the latest trunk. It should be fairly safe in the
sense that it doesn't modify the layout engine's behaviour, only the
overflow reporting mechanism. That said, it's untested and unsupported
:-)

In the future, one thing that would be of great help when you submit FO
files would be to replace all the custom fonts with the default ones:
serif, sans-serif, monospace. That will avoid a lot of noise in the
warnings, but most of all allow us to reproduce the exact same layout as
you have.


Thanks,
Vincent

A prince you are!

I do have many of those messages, some are very regular (same 7200pt overflow)
and must be from a repeated element.  Others are more varied are hence more
likely to be in the flow perhaps? Since as you point out they are not page
numbers, is there anything I can do, e.g. command line params, debug levels to
help me pin-point the errant content?

Counting this one as under control, I still have one more issue for which I
think there is an page break problem.  Still working on a small repeatable
offender.

Cheers,

Hi Rob,

Thanks for your efforts to reduce the size of the FO file, this is
really appreciated.

I believe I found the problem, but need to investigate a bit more. In
the meantime, try to modify the content so that it doesn't overflow the
page. Watch for messages saying 'Content overflows the viewport of the
fo:region-body on page n'. Except that 'n' is not the page number... but
the column number!

If you can avoid page overflows, you should avoid triggering the issue
and get appropriate page numbers.

HTH,
Vincent

I have whittled the fo down further (shorter-fop.xml, now 35%) of original,
but this is as small as I can go to reproduce the exact 3-page stutter.  I can
remover one more page and get a single stutter (shortest-fop.xml)

I pray this will be enough.

Thanks a bunch.

I truly regret the large fo;  I know it hampers things at debug time.  I had
to find a particular starting point such that the content was still aligned
with the original placements.  I'll try to trim more pages from after the
page numbering problem.

Hi,

To be efficient, a short fo helping to reproduce the issue should be
attached to the bug entry, so opening a bug rather than ask on this
list doesn't help anymore if the material remains the same.
I (or somebody else) have to look closer into the fo you attached
here,  then perhaps I (or somebody else) will, or will not, find a bug
causing this issue. Since the use case is quite big, that will take
some extra time :/

My apologies, but I've been unable to shrink this to a small test.  I'm
forced to send a rather large fo, but that's my level of desperation. Or
should I open a bug report?

I will do my best, but I see nothing in the generated fo that strikes me as
suspicious.

See other post on not getting identical output from commandline, which is
hampering generating reliable tests.

Anecdote:  prior to the 3 pages of stutter there are three pages (correctly
numbered) which have no text (entirely region-before), so this may also be
related to issue

If you're anxious for an example, I can certainly post the 40-page chapter
fo but the last one made Vincent um, er, grumpy :).

Hi,

One needs to see what there is in the XSL-FO (XML + XSLT transfo
result) fed to FOP.
Can you have a look on it, or provide a minimal version of it, so one
can reproduce the described issue?

2012/7/11 Rob Sargent <rsarg...@xmission.com>:

In the middle of my document that page numbering goes 19, 20, 24,24,24,24,
25.  Further more the table-of-contents generated by
fo:page-number-citation
uses the bogus 24s for elements on actual page 21,23.

Anyone seen this before?  Hints on rooting out the cause?
