Re: How to make sure PDF ends with a fourth page?

Hi Georg I don't think there's anything in XSL-FO that allows to force the number of pages to a multiple of 4. There's just force-page-count on fo:page-sequence to force it to a multiple of 2. My suggestion is to do this on the area tree XML or intermediate format level by injecting additional

Hi Stephan, to my knowledge there's noone currently working on that. If you look in the archives, you'll see that there's precious little discussion about change bars: http://fop-dev.markmail.org/search/?q=%22change%20bars%22 I haven't looked into change bars, yet, so I can't really offer any

Hi, I'm trying to make an existing stylesheet to work with my xml file. But it has lines like this: fo:block font=bold 8pt arial and fo:table-cell border-bottom=.6pt solid black, etc. When I compile, the engine complains: SEVERE: Ignoring property: font=bold 16pt arial (No conversion defined

AW: Strange table behaviour

Hi Vincent, My solution: I generate the the table with only one set of images and read the area tree. From the area tree I read how many pages the table takes and how much unused space I have in the left column (especially on the first page). Then I add a blank block of the gathered

Re: font configuration

Thanks a lot for the reply. I checked my version and found out that it's 0.94. So, I upgraded to 0.95. Now the SEVERE error changes to a warning: WARNING: Font 'bold Arial,normal,400' not found. Substituting with 'any,normal,400'. Should I install the font myself somewhere? I'm using Eclipse

Auto-generate table of contents

Can somebody point me to a good (and well explained) example of using XSL/FOP to auto-create a table of contents? I've spent the last couple hours looking for information on this but it's not making sense. Here's a sample of my xml: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? catalog intellispec
