RE: Paragraph indentation with no cut lines
Hi Thanks for describing your requirements further. Unfortunately I am unaware of a feature within FOP that would provide this functionality at this time. Blocks extend in the inline direction up to the region extents, but I don't think they have the ability to push back the other way dependant on their content. Your best bet at the moment would be to keep the indentation to a minimum and allow the content to wrap. It would make the document more uniform as the content would be aligned instead of having varying margins which would make it look a bit messy. If you feel it warrants it, you can always raise an issue with FOP to suggest the addition of this functionality in the future [1] [1] https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/ Best Regards, Robert Meyer Date: Thu, 7 Jun 2012 02:01:45 -0700 From: lmhe...@orange.fr To: fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org Subject: RE: Paragraph indentation with no cut lines Hi and thank you for your answers. @Robert Meyer Robert Meyer wrote: Just to clarify, are you asking for a block to be indented from the left but expand back left if the line was too long to fit in the block?

RE: Paragraph indentation with no cut lines
Hi, Just to clarify, are you asking for a block to be indented from the left but expand back left if the line was too long to fit in the block? e.g. +--+ |-- Indentation | | | | |This us a small line. | This is a longer line that fits. |Here is a long line that |exceeds the full width of a |page. | | | | | +--+ If so, I am not sure that is possible with FOP at present. I suppose if you had a fixed sized font (Courier), you could implement some XSLT to write each block and determine it's indentation based upon the length of the text (content) being written. This will not work though with any variable sized font, so unless anyone else has any suggestions I think you may need to think again about how you are writing your content to the page. Let me know if I have misunderstood.

I'm using an XML data file and an XSL-FO stylesheet to generate a PDF file using fop. Here is what I want to do: I'd like to have some paragraph indented with lines: - left-aligned, - uncut (unless they really spread over several lines). Of course, the contents of the paragraph is variable. For example: +---+ | | | | | | | | | | |Some indented text | |And another line | |And again | | | | | | | | | | | | | +---+ If possible, I don't want any of the paragraph lines to be cut. For example, here is something that I do not want: +---+ | | | | | | | | | | |Some cut indented | |text | |And another line | |And again | | | | | | | | | | | | | +---+ Here is the result I want instead: +---+ | | | | | | | | | | | Some uncut indented text | | And another line | | And again| | | | | | | | | | | | | +---+ Meaning I can't just set a fixed indentation. The indentation depends on the longest line in the paragraph. The only case when a line can be cut is when it takes more than the whole width of the page: +---+ | | | | | | | | | | | This line is cut because | | it spreads over several | | lines in the page | | And another line | | And again | | | | | | | | | | | | | +---+ Is it possible to get such results automatically and how?

Re: Paragraph indentation with no cut lines
My guess is that you need to put each line in it's own block, wrapped in a block-contiainer On 06/06/2012 04:11 AM, Léa Massiot wrote: Hello, Thank you for reading my post.
