FOP implements the fo objects and properties listed + in <jump href="implemented.html">features</jump>, sometimes it does so only in a limited way. + </p> + + <s2 title="list-block"> + <p>The fo working draft allows describes two ways to markup lists.The list-block must have as + children either: 1) pairs of fo:list-item-label and fo:list-item-body formatting objects, or + 2) fo:list-item formatting objects.</p> + <p>At the moment FOP only implements the second way. Therefore a list has a basic structure like this:</p> + <p><code><fo:list-block></code></p> + <p><code><fo:list-item></code></p> + <p><code><fo:list-item-label><fo:block></fo:block></fo:list-item-label></code></p> + <p><code><fo:list-item-body><fo:block></fo:block></fo:list-item-body></code></p> + <p><code></fo:list-item></code></p> + <p><code></fo:list-block></code></p> + </s2> + <s2 title="Padding"> + <p>Padding works in conjunction with indents and spaces. It is only implemented + for blocks. At the moment padding can't be used to make extra space (indents+spaces + must be used), but only to control how much the background-color extends beyond + the content rectangle. + </p> + </s2> + <s2 title="Tables"> + <p>There two limitations for tables: 1) FOP needs you to explicitly specify column widths + 2) Cells have to contain block-level FOs. They can't contain straight character data. + </p> + <p>A working basic example of a table looks like this: </p> + <p><code><fo:table></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:table-column column-width="150pt"/></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:table-column column-width="150pt"/></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:table-body font-size="10pt" font-family="sans-serif"></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:table-row></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:table-cell></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:block>text</fo:block></code></p> + <p><code> </fo:table-cell></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:table-cell></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:block>text</fo:block></code></p> + <p><code> </fo:table-cell></code></p> + <p><code> </fo:table-row></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:table-row></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:table-cell></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:block>text</fo:block></code></p> + <p><code> </fo:table-cell></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:table-cell></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:block>text</fo:block></code></p> + <p><code> </fo:table-cell></code></p> + <p><code> </fo:table-row></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:table-row></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:table-cell></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:block>text</fo:block></code></p> + <p><code> </fo:table-cell></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:table-cell></code></p> + <p><code> <fo:block>text</fo:block></code></p> + <p><code> </fo:table-cell></code></p> + <p><code> </fo:table-row></code></p> + <p><code> </fo:table-body></code></p> + <p><code></fo:table></code></p> + </s2> + + + <!--<s2 title="display-graphic"> + <p>Which formats are supported?
