Re: [docbook-apps] Re: dbfo-need height and FOP
Anitti,

 

I do not know of a specific bugtrack item describing this. However, I do know that this has been going on for many years. FOP has a table of compatibility with the FO standard. You may want to check this.

 

Regards,

Dean Nelson

  Hmm, this last question seems to have gone unnoticed. I bumped into this   
issue again so I again came to wonder whether these problems are known to   
fop developers? I.e. are there one or more bug reports about these in fop   
bug tracker? I could not find any but that may be just due to not choosing   
the right words to search with.
