I just read that "overflow="hidden">" isn't implemented yet in FOP.

_____________________
Clipping as specified by the overflow="hidden" is not yet implemented. If 
you have long words overflowing table cells, try to get them hyphenated. 
Artificial names like product identifications or long numbers usually aren't 
hyphenated. You can try special processing at XSLT level, like

clip long text,
explicit wrapping+clipping,
insert zero width spaces (U+200B or &#x200B;) to allow FOP to wrap.

Since I'm not this familiar with programming. What does it mean "FOP to 
wrap"? Wrap what?

Is there a font I can add where every character has the same width so I can 
use the substring()-function to cut off characters?

Thanks
Jonny
