It's sad to hear that an empty page at the end of the document is

get a similar outlook with blocks (instead of tables)? As far as I know
they cannot be put beside each other, but I might have missed something.
So, can I put two blocks beside each other? Or would it be possible to
use tabulators inside a block? (In order to get a table-like outlook
without explicitly using tables.)
I'm sorry but answering this kind of "How do I" questions is out of the
scope of normal support. Please refer to this FAQ to learn why.

I cannot get the results that I want. Can you help me tweak my XSLT
stylesheet?

My other question refers to the start-indent feature. The following FO
document is supposed to have an outdented block in the footer, but it
does not function.
Athttp://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/conformance.htmlI read that
start-indent is supported by xmlmind (except percentages). By the
standard:"If this property has a negative value, it indicates an outdent. "
http://www.w3schools.com/xslfo/prop_start-indent.asp
This cannot work:
---
<fo:static-content flow-name="after">
<fo:block text-align="left" start-indent="-10pt">
Simpsons
</fo:block>
<fo:block line-height="34mm"> </fo:block>
</fo:static-content>

because the above footer block is already at the very left of the
``printable area'' of the page. That is, there is no way to ``truncate''
a block by specifying a negative start-indent.
While what follows works as expected:
---
<fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
<fo:block start-indent="20pt">
<fo:block>Bla 1</fo:block>
<fo:block start-indent="-10pt">Bla 2</fo:block>
<fo:block>Bla 3</fo:block>
</fo:block>
</fo:flow>
---
because there is ``room'' for the negative start-indent of block "Bla 2".

PS: Please note that support is limited to one topic per week and per
customer.
See http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/support.html#xfc_support_policy
In practice, unless you file formal bug reports, we won't be able to
answer to any of your further questions before one week.
