I have a table that is displayed at the end of a page. The table is a bit tall, so it is separated into two parts: one at the end of the current page, and the other at the beginning of the next page. Is there a way to prevent FOP from cutting a table into pieces? I tried to include the table into

Is it possible to have when you are using a table header, a variable that tells how many times this header has already been duplicated, because of page break. Si you can have a header that displays on the first page: Table important and on the second page: Table important (2) and on the third page

I do not know the proprietary tools. What can I say to you that will convice you? The power of standards and open-source. Standards allows interoperability. You do not need to buy the specs of any closed-source format in order to make a bridge to (let's say) PDF or RTF :-) Force of the open-sourc
