Hi Michael, If it works for you it might be a valid solution - I once did setup a project based on fop 1.0, I never had a requirement to update... but I am not an expert when it comes down to customization. At least I would not send you to hell ;-)
What I also did to achieve something I was not able to solve in FO (run tables across double page) was to use Area Tree: the FO was built on DIN A3 master pages and the cut into DIN A4 in a post process... But using the hack seems much more plausible to me in your case? Best, Frank > Am 29.11.2016 um 07:34 schrieb Michel Krämer <michel.krae...@googlemail.com>: > > Frank, > > Thanks for trying.
