Subject: [xsl] XSL-FO column width From: "Kevin Brown" <kevin@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 5 Feb 2008 23:37:18 -0800 |
Alex: Either something is wrong with the FO processor you are using OR more likely you believe that the paper you are printing from Adobe Reader using your printer represents "reality" without interpreting all the variables. If I process this exact structure in an FO document using RenderX XEP and print from Adobe Reader to my printer and ... 1) I ensure that my document size matches my paper size available in the printer, and 2) I ensure that Adobe Reader is set to not scale the print document to fit the paper The document printed has two columns, one exactly 2in and one exactly 3in. Do not think that your problem is the result of the program that produced the file when you have introduced other variables such as paper size considerations and Adobe Reader to print scaling. The columns produced within a PDF file by XEP are exactly the widths specified if you use this structure in your FO. You do not need to do anything to add a third column or anything of the like. The problem likely exists with your specified paper size dimensions and/or Adobe reader scaling the document to fit the paper size.

Suppose you have 8.5in wide paper and 1in margins on both sides. In that case (assuming no other objects are in that space), the table has 6.5in it can use. So, to fill the space and get two columns exactly 2in and 3in wide, you'd create three columns of 2in, 3in, and 1.5in. Then you'd set the borders and background colors of the cells in the third column to white (or whatever your paper color might be). I can't guarantee this trick will fix your problem, but it fixed a similar problem for me about 15 months ago. HTH Jay Bryant Bryant Communication Services http://www.bryantcs.com/
