Re[2]: [xep-support] Re: Two columns problem.

Hello Anshul,

general questions about XSL FO are welcome to our public mailing
list, xep-support@renderx.com. Dedicated support (mainly related to
XEP integration) provided via support@renderx.com. Please do not send
your questions directly to our engineers' personal addresses.

Regarding your problem - what you need is span="all" property.
Instead of the table that contains SUBSUBSECTIONNAME text you have to
use <fo:block span="all"> like this:

<fo:block span="all" border=".5pt solid black" >
        <fo:block text-align="start" font-family="times roman" font-size="10pt" font-weight="bold">
                <xsl:value-of select="SUBSECTIONNAME"/>
        </fo:block>
        <fo:block text-align="start" font-family="times roman" font-size="10pt">
                <xsl:value-of select="SUBSUBSECTIONNAME"/>
        </fo:block>
</fo:block>

KA> Hi,

KA> Yes, the discrepancy is due to the table in the two column layout. On the
KA> first page I need to display a long text which should not be in two column
KA> layout. After that I need to start a table. Pls. find the attached xsl-fo
KA> and the sample xml I am using to generate the pdf.

KA> Thanks,

KA> Hello Anshul,

KA> your message bounced from xep-support list because of attachment. Big
KA> attachments are not allowed in our public list.
KA> If you need a sample to to demonstrate the problem it is recommended
KA> to send it as a source XSL-FO file, not as a resulting PDF.

KA> In this particular case it's not quite clear for me what the layout is
KA> (rectangles that overlay actual data seems rather strange to me).
KA> I suppose that your table is placed into two-column layout and you
KA> want header rows to appear at the same level in both columns. The
KA> discrepancy in their positioning most probably caused by space-before
KA> applied to the table - it is present in the first column (when the
KA> table starts), but absent at the beginning of the second column.
KA> If that's the case I would suggest you to remove space-before
KA> attribute from the table and use other means to create spacing if
KA> necessary.

KA> If my guesswork is incorrect it will be helpful if you describe your
KA> requirements in more details and provide us with source XSL-FO.
