| | 1. Which XSLT processor are you using? (Don't say MSXML w/DOM input)
| saxon and xalan
| | 
| | 2. Where do you want the whitespace preserved? Provide an example.
| Looks like this is more a XSL-FO question cause the actual text in
| the format object file is correctly representing whitespace but the
| pdf out put looks like below:
| 
| 
| Text as per .xml and .fo:
| 
| Imagine this is a poem
| and we want lines idented
| in this strange fasion
| 
| This is a nonsensical indentation
| but serves to make the point
| about what I mean by preserving whitespace
| 
| Output as per .pdf:
| 
| Imagine this is a poem and we want lines idented in this strange fasion This is
| a nonsensical indentation but serves to make the point about what I mean by
| preserving whitespace 
| 
| The .fo -> .pdf processors I am playing with are fop and xep.

linefeed-treatment="preserve"
white-space-collapse="false"
wrap-option="no-wrap"
