<faqs title="FAQ Running FOP">
<faq title="Source files for the formatting properties are missing">
<q>Q: I can't find the source files for the formatting properties. The directories
where they should be are empty. Where can I find them?</q>
<a><p>A: They are generated during the build process. So you should use the build script coming
with Fop at least once to generate these files.
</p>
</a>
</faq>
<faq title="Formatting object xxx doesn't work as expected">
<q>Q: Feature xxx of the XSL Working Draft 27 March 2000 does not work as it should. Why?</q>
<a><p>A: First: Only a small subset of formatting objects and properties is
implemented at the moment. Please have a look at the section "Features",
which lists the supported fo and properties. Second: At the moment only
Working Draft 21 Apr 1999 is supported.
</p>
</a>
</faq>
<faq title="Supporting the latest XSL working draft">
<q>Q: When will the latest version of the XSL working draft be supported?</q>
<a><p>Basic conformance to the latest XSL working draft is scheduled for fall 2000.
</p>

<faq title="Fatal error: Root element must be root">
<q>Q: Running FOP I get the following messages or something similar:
"WARNING: Unknown formatting object http://www.w3.org/XSL/Format/1.0^root"
and then a FATAL Error "Root element must be root, not default FO".</q>
<a>
<p>A: Make sure that you have specified as the namespace for fo the
following string: "http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format". It is analogous
to the xslt namespace "http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
</p>

</faq>
<faq title="Char '>' inserted into page number">
<q>Q: The char ">" is inserted into the page number display like this
"formatting FOs into areas [1] [2] [3>>>>]". Is this a bug?</q>
<a><p>A: No, a feature. It simply means that on that page an area
overflowed (ie there was not enough room to fit the text in).</p></a>
</faq>
<faq title="Are font properties allowed here">
<q>Q: It looks like FOP must be honoring font properties when it shouldn't be?
Example: According to the dtd coming with the xsl-fo spec inline-sequence
shouldn't have any attributes, but FOP doesn't reject them.
</q>
<a>
<p>A: Font properties are inherited down to individual characters. You can
specify font properties on any formatting object you like and any textual content
will inherit those properties (unless overriden by a closer ancestor).
</p>
<p>The dtd coming with the xsl-fo spec isn't correct in this respect.
</p>
</a>
</faq>
<faq title="Supported fonts">
<q>Q: I need some additional fonts in FOP. How I can set embedding fonts?
</q>
<a>
<p>A: At present, FOP does not support any fonts other than the built-in fonts
Times, Helvetica, Courier, Symbol and ZapfDingbats.
