We use iText as well as FOP in producing our printable product. Some
pages get a black background from iText (certain graphics look better
that way). When the black background is under the sidebar (as made with
the referenced sidebar.fo) the nuisance-some inter-cell lines expose the

Rob, I looked with more time at this issue and I think that my previous
statement that I was seeing lines where they should not be was
incorrect. I think they should be there because they are in the *fo source!

Agree. As I mentioned in my RESOVED mail, we have remove the underlying
black which somehow seeped through in Evince and for the print shop.
Thanks for your efforts. I think there is an issue, but whose it is is
not clear to me and we think we're past the pain point.
