Hi,
Another question related to page-height and page-width properties on
simple-page-master:
The Rec states that, in case the value is specified as "auto":
"The 'page-height/-width' shall be determined, in the case of
continuous media, from the size of the User Agent window, otherwise
from the size of the media. If media information is not available this
dimension shall be implementation-defined."
upon which it suggests to use fallbacks of 11in x 8.26in.
Now, I was thinking, since currently the fallback values are used as
defaults --which, strictly speaking, is wrong-- maybe the first step
towards implementing "auto" could be to define these fallbacks in
fop.xconf (?) We'd properly set the default to EN_AUTO in
FOPropertyMapping, and in case the FOUserAgent doesn't provide any
values for them, the fallbacks in FOP's default configuration could be
used, and a user could override these in his own userconfig.xml
This would also be "implementation-defined", but avoids hard-coding the
fallback values.
I'll gladly take a look at it, if enough people consider this to be
sensible...
WDYT?
Cheers,
Andreas
