Hi,
I have a problem with FOP-0.20.3 and way its generating
the pdf output of absolut positioned block-containers.
Here is my problem:
(Text has been modified to protect the innocent)
I define block containers in a page-sequence like this:
<fo:block-container height="1.5cm" width="5cm" top="18.5cm" left="4cm"
position="absolute">
<fo:block text-align="start" line-height="10pt" font-family="Helvetica"
font-size="8pt">
some text
</fo:block>
</fo:block-container>
<fo:block-container height="1.5cm" width="5cm" top="18.5cm" left="9cm"
position="absolute">
<fo:block text-align="start" line-height="10pt" font-family="Helvetica"
font-size="8pt">
some more text
</fo:block>
</fo:block-container>
<fo:block-container height="1.5cm" width="5cm" top="18.5cm" left="14cm"
position="absolute">
<fo:block text-align="start" line-height="10pt" font-family="Helvetica"
font-size="8pt">
even more text
</fo:block>
</fo:block-container>
As you can see all of the block containers share the same height,width and
top.the only difference is the
positioning for left.
Now that is what Fop generates in the pdf:
/F1 8 Tf
0.0 Tc
1 0 0 1 141.731 268.217 Tm [(some text) 0.0 Tc
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Definition of the Text Matrix
-11437.625 (some more text) 0.0 Tc
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
relative positioning
-11326.5 (even more text) ] TJ
As you can see only the first block is positioned absolut(it has a text
matrix defined) all
others are defined relative to the first one which is exactly what i dont
want(besides all those line break
that seem to blow up the size of the file).
My question:
Any way to change that so that all blocks are generated absolut?
Thanks for your help
It is very appreciated in this matter.

P.S.Please dont ask why I need this behaviour, I need it and would expect
it from the way
