SOLVED! Yes! Something to cheer up a morbidly downcast Packers fan two days after the fall of the mighty number '4'. I used DocBook for the frequency table because I was familiar with formatting it as PDF with FOP. I suspect that properties have similar distributions in general because XSL-FO are always generated with programs and (ransom notes notwithstanding) adhere to general styles. Really repetitive documents would be only slightly more skewed than general text documents. (Say 90-10 rather than 80-20). Someone told me where to get the style sheets for the XSL-FO specification (RenderX) and I wanted to generate the XSL-FO file for it, as a more appropriate 'challenge' for the project. -- John Austin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
