RE: Problem reporting
Arved, Thanks for the response :) I'm certainly not expecting people to drop whatever they're doing and fix the problem, especially as there is a work around. I guess that coming from the background I do, I feel uncomfortable with problem reporting and resolution relying so much on someone taking an interest in a post to a mailing list. I've seen messages posted from Bugzilla (whatever that is) and wondered how to go about getting a problem report formalised so that it wont get overlooked. I really wish that I was Java-savvy. Unfortunately, this is not the case. I find this very frustrating as (for once in my life) I am relegated to the position of a dumb user and all I can do is say "hey, it doesn't work". I do believe that I am one of the few Windows-world users of FOP and so I can at least contribute something by testing it out on that platform.

He was ignored too :) Hi, Darren I wouldn't say that you've been ignored. I read those emails, and I'm sure that others did too. I am inclined not to reply, usually, unless I have something to add and/or I can promise quick action. Neither of which was true in the case of the behaviour you report (although I can confirm it, and I do remember the percentages working before). I'm guessing the fix is pretty simple - if you've got some Java savvy you'll expedite your chances of getting a quick resolution by doing some code research. :-) Eventually it'll get fixed anyway, of course.

RE: Problem reporting
I've tried that twice and been ignored twice, so I thought there must be some other channel to be used. I've been trying to say that the leader-length attribute is ignored if it has a percentage value instead of an explicit value. The leader.fo example demonstrates this problem. Strangely, I did a bit of a search and discovered that Huy Do also reported this problem on August 2nd. He was ignored too :) -Original Message- From: Arved Sandstrom [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, 17 August 2001 10:57 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Problem reporting At 10:22 AM 8/17/01 +1000, Darren Munt wrote: >How do I report a problem that I have found in the latest FOP distribution?
