A not insignificant, category of tasks is to decide upon and implement all reasonable properties required by the specification. This also means that at this point, until further review, no FO can be considered to be compliant. This are the properties which must be implemented to reach basic conformance a) CHANGED space-after.optimum (Incomplete) space-before.optimum (Incomplete) keep-with-next (Changed) b) NEW alignment-adjust alignment-baseline baseline-shift block-progression-dimension border-after-precedence border-before-precedence border-end-precedence border-start-precedence clip content-type direction display-align dominant-baseline font-variant format grouping-separator grouping-size inline-progression-dimension keep-with-next keep-with-previous letter-value line-stacking-strategy number-columns-repeated number-columns-spanned number-rows-spanned orphans overflow reference-orientation relative-align role source-document space-after (full) space-before (full) space-end space-start visibility widows writing-mode z-index 3. A third category of tasks is the ongoing effort to promote maintainability, write more and better documentation, and to refine the build process. a) add examples. In examples/fo there should be at least one file for each supported flow object showing the use of all properties applying to it. **** Bugs **** - colour not continued onto subsequent pages if coloured block goes over page - keep-next doesn't work and doubles the text lines which should be moved to the next page - border width in fo:table is added to the start position of the next block or table (see page 6 in examples/fo/table.fo for a test case) - if a block, which is positioned with space-before, doesn't fit on the current page, it gets lost. (see space-before.fo in bugtests/fo for a test case) SVG - SVG linearGradients don't appear the same as in other SVG Viewers AWT Previewer: - more comments/english comments
