Re: Last page footer
Hello, Do you have examples of using markers or footnotes to distinct the last page footer ? I want to print the same footer on all pages except the last where I want nothing.

shifting a table to the left
I am trying to figure out how to shift a table side to side on a page, similar to how start-indent can shift the text starting point. I have a page layout with a wide left margin that can be used for side headings. When I need a side heading, I had intended to use a 2 column table, put the heading in the 1st column, the paragraph text in the 2nd column, and then shift the whole table to the left with negative offset to line everything up. If I use a negative start-indent on the block or table, the text starting point moves to the left, but since the table stays put, the text right margin doesn't move over with it, it effectively stays with the table, which hasn't moved. end-indent has no effect. Is there any way to cause the whole table to shift to the left, so that the table-cells will enforce the text margins? Thanks, Mike Kellstrand __ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo!

Re: shifting a table to the left
OK, although I have not been able to get the table itself to shift to the left, I have been able to find a combination of start-indent and end-indent attribs at the right spots to visually do exactly what I need. If anyone can shift the table itself, then that would be the nicer solution.

Re: shifting a table to the left
OK, here is my solution. I'm doing more interesting
things in the actual table cell content, but you guys
won't care about that, so I've altered it to just put
text in each cell.

Problem with table row
Hi all, I generate a table using XSLT. In the second cell of my table rows, I have 3 blocks (3 rows of text). I want those line to always be together, in the table row. FOP has a surprising behaviour : - In the last row of each page, the row border overlaps the bottom margin and draws over the footer. - Only the first row of text appears in the cell. The 2 following rows are on the following page. To work around this problem, I used fo:wrapper fo:table-cell xsl:use-attribute-sets=table.body.cell fo:wrapper fo:block text-align=left xsl:value-of select=item/code/ /fo:block fo:block text-align=left xsl:value-of select=item/name/ /fo:block fo:block text-align=left xsl:value-of select=item/reference/ /fo:block /fo:wrapper /fo:table-cell This give me the result I want but when I generate the PDF file using fop.bat, I get error messages for each row of my table : -- [ERROR] text outside block area Does anybody knows what's wrong ? Is there another way to get my 3 blocks together in each row without raising errors ?

I have to specify exact width in inches/mm/etc to avoid getting a warning. Your fo:table-column column-number="1" (column-number attrib not supported in fop), use fo:table-column column-width="proportional-column-width(1)"/ and provide column entries in left to right order. In general, I've found that tables don't like to play nice with other enclosing elements and now have heavily nested tables to preserve layouts on my pages.

You can try retrieve-position=firt-starting-within-page, this will give you the normal footer on a one page document, which may be what you want, or not. The examples in the FOP distribution have a more extravagant solution, using an overlapping SVG to hide the regular content.
