Re: Wrapping long character strings
Do you know if there are plans to update the XSL-FO standard to give better control over wrapping? It seems that something like this really shouldn't fall under the category of hyphenation. -Wyatt Jeremias Maerki wrote: overflow won't help here. wrap-option only controls whether to wrap or not, not how to wrap. XSL-FO uses country, language and script to indirectly specify how line-breaking should be done. script is not supported and country/language are currently only used to select the right hyphenation pattern file. It's currently not possible to better control how line breaking is done. The only possible thing is to try to write a hyphenation pattern file which will allow you to better specify additional word-breaking points. I've never done that myself, but there should be some documentation on the web (the patterns are originally from TeX) and I think some ideas have been thrown around on this mailing list before. So searching the archives might help. At any rate, there's no easy way. On 10.09.2006 16:56:46 Wyatt Tellis wrote: The asterisks are only one example. What about other character strings?

I'm trying to emulate the behavior of apps such as MS Word or Notepad that do the line wrapping automatically (I really don't want hyphenation because these are not true English words). -Wyatt Jeremias Maerki wrote: I'd have to look up whether according to UAX#14/TR14 we would be allowed to break between two * characters in the first place.

I've used JIMI (http://java.sun.com/products/jimi/) to write PICT files, but never from within FOP. -Wyatt narendra babu wrote: hello everybody, is there anybody who have some knowledge on PICT file.

Re: pict file
I'm afraid I don't know the answers to your specific questions, but maybe this site might be of use: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/mac/QuickDraw/QuickDraw-2.html I used it when fixing some PICT related bugs with JIMI. -Wyatt narendra babu wrote: ok, no prob sir, i am using C-code to extract the data present in the pict file, can u just give me the hint how to extract where in the file the image data is present. also the icc profile present in the file. after all the headers of the pict file does the image data starts or profile starts, if the image is present in the file, i want to extract the size also, so whether the size will be specified in the file or should we calculate with the help of x and y axis present in the header. */Wyatt Tellis [EMAIL PROTECTED]/* wrote: I've used JIMI (http://java.sun.com/products/jimi/) to write PICT files, but never from within FOP. -Wyatt narendra babu wrote: hello everybody, is there anybody who have some knowledge on PICT file.
