Space betweens columns
Hi, is it possible to control the space / margin between columns in multi-column documents? I can control the margins at the outside of the content, but not the margin _between_ the colums. -- thx, soenke. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Multi-columns Layout problems
Hi there, While trying multi-columns with fop, I've found some strange behaviours: 1. When I specifie block/span="all", a block/@break-before is not taken into account for the same block. 2. If there is not enough place for a block image in 1 column, sometimes FOP crashes, invoking an infinite loop -- I resolved this problem by inserting some empty blocks before 3. When I declare an ID (using generate-id() function xpath), I get an error if the element is not spanned over the 2 columns (error says that ID cannot be used twice). I suppose that intermediate xml file include a copy of the 1st column (I have not checked it yet), because fo file is *perfect*! I need to span the element over all columns in order to bypass this problem. Cordialement,Pascal SANCHOTakoma, Information Mapping t : +334 90 59 82 90 m : +336 74 94 66 04e : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Tables and Columns Question
Hi, I want to create a three column document. In this document there are tables, that are generated from an XML file. I want the tables in that order Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 Table 1 | Table 2 | Table 3 Table 4 ... I don't want to create a Nx3 Table and put 1 table in one cell, is there a more elegant solution? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Tables and Columns Question
In your 3 columns document, You can use a block with a span=all attribute between 3rd 4th tables. This should resolve your demand.

Without knowing more about your task, it's hard to come up with a solution. For one thing, we don't know if your content is IMAGE-based or TEXT-based. As for overflow, I don't think the overflow (as it relates to fo:table-cell fo:table-column) is well-developed in FOP. I think you need to come up with some sort of XSL solution where you count the number of characters (or determine the width of an image at run-time) or something. This would be a process external to FOP and would be better discussed on an XSL/XSLT list: http://xml.apache.org/fop/maillist.html If you come up with a solution, please let us know so others may benefit from your experience. p.s.

There is a bug which prevents FOP from discarding display space at the edge of a reference area, i.e. at the column top, however, unless the new column also starts a new block with some non-zero space-before, the text should be aligned. BTW the spec is rather hazy about alignment in multi-column layout. There are alignment options for lists and tables, but I don't remember there was much said about aligning the first lines of neighboring columns. Aligning the last lines would be great too. There are, however, more pressing issues with the code. J.Pietschmann - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I cant think of a workaround in the general sense. You could try placing your content into a table, starting a new row for each paragraph and using keep-together=always on the rows. That way the top of each column would always start with a new paragraph and the baseline alignment may be improved. Another technique is to try to guess when a column has been filled and place break-after=column at appropriate places in the XSL-FO during XSLT processing. Very messy I know... fop does not seem to have implemented .minimum and .maximum (or .conditionality or .precedence) in space-before and space-after, so the vertical spaces in the columns are constant rather than mutable. This seems to be at least part of the problem; leastwise, mucking about with 'stretch' and 'shrink' values doesn't seem to help.. Neither does giving a value to display-align in the region-body make any difference. display-align is only implemented in block-containers and table cells. I'm rather mystified, since my reading of the XSL spec and Pawson's book gives me no clue how I could achieve this effect if I wanted to. They wouldnt give you any pointers to solve this problem, because they are written in general XSL-FO terms, with a fully compliant XSL-FO formatter in mind. In other words they are not written specifically for FOP users. Chris - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Table columns with custom font incorrectly aligned
Hi again. I use FOP to generate PDF documents from XSL-FO documents. The resulting PDF documents contains a big table, and it uses a custom font (called Signa). The font files needed are embedded in the document. I used the PFMReader utility to generate XML metrics files from these 3 different font metrics files (PFM files). The table in the PDF document typically uses right aligned cells. My problem is, the columns are not properly aligned, a right aligned column gets to look something like this: 12363474 43382 39 93 9393 64484505 38483 I tested with a base 14 font, no problems. Could it be that the generated font metrics is incorrect? Regards, Dennis JD Myrén Developer Oslo Kode Bureau Tel: (+47) 98 00 11 92 Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: www.oslokb.no

Re: Table columns with custom font incorrectly aligned
Nope. You're confusing things, I'm afraid. It's correct that some metric information needed by FOP is not present in PFM files, only in PFB (but which are currently not parsed). The problem here is most probably kerning. We've had that problem before. I just can't find the right thread right now. I think Jörg had an explanation (but I don't remember it). I used to propose to manually remove the kerning elements in the generated XML font metric file. This disables kerning for this font but normally solves the alignment problem.

Balancing columns in a 2 column region
Hi All, The main flow of my xsl:fo document has a column-count=2. By using the attribute span=none or span=all on fo:block's in my document, I can make the block area use or not use the 2 columns. So by toggling that span attribute, I can get output that looks either like: (span=all) xxx xxx xxx xxx xxx or: (span=none) xxx xxx xxx xxx xxx The question I have concerns the balancing of the columns in the span=none case. I've noticed that fop always puts about 2x as much data into the first column as the second. I'd like the balancing to be closer to 1-1. Is that possible? Is there an attribute that can be set on the flow? Any guidance on this would be greatly appreciated!

Ex: Original: BlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaB BlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaB BlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaBlaB as i want: blablablablablablablablablabla blablablablablablablablablabla blablablablablablablablablabla blablablablablablablablablabla blablablablablablablablablabla Any trick?

You can emulate it with list or blind table, but you cannot get the behaviour of flowing content into columns. -- Oleg Tkachenko eXperanto team Multiconn Technologies, Israel - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
fo:table-cell number-columns-spanned: Is this property working at all?
Are there any limitations to the number-columns-spanned-property? I tried this to fill a 5-columns table with 2 cells, but it doesn't seem to work: xsl:template match=soustitre3 fo:table-row fo:table-cellfo:block xsl:value-of select=./ /fo:block/fo:table-cell fo:table-cell number-colums-spanned=4 text-align=centerfo:block xsl:value-of select=../soustitre3_intitule/ /fo:block/fo:table-cell /fo:table-row /xsl:template I'm using this same property in another rule in the same XSL-file, and it does what I want (e.g. span several colums with just one cell). But in this case, the text from xsl:value-of select=../soustitre3_intitule/,. which is actually rather long, is squeezed in the second cell, (with appr. 1 word per line, since the second column is rather narrow). Any ideas? Kurt
RE: block question in multi columns area
Hi, Xavier Part of this I can speak about...when I put in an algorithm for column rebalancing (the equilibration you refer to, on other words) it was very crude, really nothing more than a placeholder. I meant to go back to it but never did, and as far as I know no one else has ever put in a better one. Your blocks have very little content, so it may not look like they break across columns. But that they already do. It's just that the break is not quite in the right place. I'll take a quick look and see if we can't do somewhat better than what we have at the moment.

Re: block question in multi columns area
Thank you Arved :) In the case of arbitrary contents on a cocoon plateform, it would be very very interesting to equilibrate the bloks, mine are small because of the carriage return : it's not confortable to make blocks just to simulate carriage return. I'm not enough confortable with this project, to help you, but I would like to help the french community, by translating a part of the documentation.

Re: Multi columns for a text
Thank you very much for your response, I understood and succeeded with multi-column body region, but it didn't fit my needs. In fact I need multi column in block containers or tables, because i need two columns on the left and a third one completly independant in the right in a page and i need a two columns area and a third columns area in the same page. Do you have simple examples or urls to manage multi columns in block-containers or tables ? Thank you for your help Xavier J.Pietschmann wrote: Xavier DAMAY wrote: I want to generate dynamically a multicolumn area for a press-like Pdf. Does a solution exist ? I tried fo:block and i'm not confortable with tables. I will appriciate any help, You can create a multi-column body region by specifying the column-count property: http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/slice6.html#fo_region-body You can have only one multi-column-area. There is a possibility to put a span=all for blocks which you want to have to span all columns (mainly intended for headlines). This would give you a layout as in a multi-column book. If you want to have a complex newspaper-like layout, with a grid with various possibly multi-column articles, you have to do it manually, either by using a blind table for the grid, or by using block-containers on absolute positions.

As far as i have understood the spec, you can't define an arbitrary area and have multi-column flowing text in it in XSLFO. Study it yourself, maybe i've overlooked something. Do you have simple examples or urls to manage multi columns in block-containers or tables ? If you mean text flowing automatically from column to column, there aren't any. Block containers can't have multiple columns for itself. The purpose of block containers is mainly changing block progression direction, for example having text flow from bottom to top in an otherwise top-to bottom text, although they are also often used simply to group blocks for positioning and similar tasks. In tables, you can have multiple columns, but you have to distribute the text across columns by yourself, it won't flow automatically, and there are no mechanisms to make balanced columns easily. You can try to produce balanced columns at the XSLT level. J.Pietschmann

Drawing a line between two region-body columns
I have divided the region-body in two. I would now like to draw a single line separating the two columns, can this be done ? Is there any way to write something in the column-gap ? Alternatively, since I am having a block flowing from one column to another could I have the right column block's left border to appear but not the left column block's left border to appear. I.e. right column of block ... | ... left column of block and not the usual | right column of block ... | ... left column of block which is easy to get with block border-left=1pt I see no way for this to work, but I would really like it to.

You can use static content in a region overlapping the region-body with the text flow. Use an empty block or table with absolute positioning and height settings. Yes, as often the solutions proposed assume absolute positions, I would much prefer to be able to do this sort of thing starting after a number of arbitrary blocks (spanned here). I think that the region-body should not indicate the number of columns, but one or several flow-body (let's say) which could have varying number of columns (1,2,3...). A model superior to what is available today (one can only indicate a fixed number of columns or span them). Would also be nice if this flow-body could then have decoration attributes for the column gap or for the different borders of the columns defined. Just an idea. BTW please post this kind of questions only to fop-user. In general, avoid cross posting to both lists. Ok. P. Andries
2 coliumns * 4 columns table
I need to implement tables that seem to me to be difficult (or impossible) to render with XSL FO. The difficulty involves a table made of two columns (left/right) themselves divided into 4 further columns (a,b,c,d). The content should flows from the left four columns (a,b,c,d) on a page to the right four columns (a,b,c,d) of the same page before going on to the next pages, themselves divided in the same way. The page header on the next pages is slightly different from the one found on the first page containing the table. Is this possible with your XEP ? Could you give me an rough idea how to implement it and test it ? P. Andries

Could you give me an rough idea how to implement it and test it ? You have to explicit assign the text to the columns in tables. You can try to use columns in the region-body fo:region-body column-count=2/ If you can use this, you can probably also use static content in the region-before for your slightly different headers.

Two columns
Hi folks, I haven't seen an example for this but is it possible to have one or more blocks in which text flows into the next column, as in a newspaper for example. I am trying to do a two column A4 newsletter and don't want to worry about inserting column breaks Alex Mc
Re: Two columns
Alex, You need to include a column-count in your fo:region-body like this: fo:root fo:layout-master-set fo:simple-page-master master-name =page-first page-height =8.5in page-width =11in fo:region-body margin-top =5cm margin-bottom=.5in margin-left =.5in margin-right =.5in column-count =3/ fo:region-before extent=6cm/ /fo:simple-page-master /fo:layout-master-set . . .

So is there another way to do multicolumns? If you are relying on 'column-count' on 'region-body', no, you are stuck with that one figure, as you surmised. This is an XSL limitation. So on one page you can have areas with one column and 'column-count' columns, depending on how you set 'span', but that is it - 2 choices. You might be able to do something clever if you also introduce tables.
