Hi, I think I cannot help you, sorry. All I did to make FOP print right-to-left was changing the word order in a row. But I dont have any idea how FOP can print from top to bottom. I think the AntennaHouse XSL Formatter can do this. A trial version is available on their website. But it isnt open source.
