I believe that is true. > I am also generating formatted PDF o/p with FOP. I > found many enhancements for PDF o/p in fop-0.20.5rc3a, > so I have shifted to fop-0.20.5rc3a.

Most who are using TextRenderer are using it for a different purpose than it was intended. IMO, the solution is to create a RawTextRenderer along the lines of our Structure Renderer concepts (RTF & MIF) that simply spits the text out instead of trying to format it much at all. Without funding or someone to do the development, I think it will be a while before this gets implemented.
