That helps very much. I guess I wasn't missing anything then. However, can you explain the result illustrated below? Here is my current template (which by my understanding shouldn't give me the result I expect, and doesn't quite): <xsl:template name="chapter-title"> <fo:block xsl:use-attribute-sets="title-characteristics" break-before="odd-page" > <fo:block font-size="78pt"> <xsl:number/> </fo:block> <fo:block margin-left="{$offset-margin-left}" space-after.optimum="90pt" font-weight="normal" font-size="30pt"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </fo:block> </fo:block> </xsl:template> What I get (with XSL Formatter) is the 78pt number and the title text presented side-by-side on the same baseline. I expected the title text to be presented *below* the number (that is, the block for the title text would follow the number block in the block presentation direction). Here's what I got: ** *** **** ** ** ****** This is the title text This isn't the presentation effect I need: I need the title text and number to have the same top alignment (e.g., <tr valign="top">). Just curious why this *almost* worked. Thanks, Eliot ISOGEN International, LLC XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
