I haven't tried this myself yet, but see:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=fop-user&m=102469565909328&w=2 :
'If you want to have your line breaks preserved, you should set linefeed-treatment to preserve. Unfortunately, FOP doesn't implement this. You can set white-space-collapse to false, which will not only keep runs of spaces but also the linefeeds intact (which is actually a bug). If you want to have white space collapsed, you can - do this at a transformation level - use a transformation which transforms each run of characters between two line bbreaks into a separate fo:block - translate the CR to 
 (Unicode LINE SEPARATOR) which is apparently treated specially'
Good luck, Joop.

Hello!
In a perfect XML world content is always separatable from presentation. Unfortunately, there are cases (at least in publishing) when this is simply not possible. For example, we need to provide the possibility to insert manual breaks into text (especially titles).
Web research tells me that whitespace-treatment="preserve" is a solution to this, yet unimplemented by FOP.
The only workaround I have found so far is to sorround the position at which the line should be broken with non-break spaces.
(Example: this is a test <!-- intended break position --> this is a test.)
Has anyone found a better solution to this?
Cheers, Matthias Brunner
