Hi List- I am relatively new to FO. I am trying to
create a 2-column page with text that wraps into the
next column at a position on the page. I can see it is
possible by putting a leader in as shown in one of the
Apache FOP examples, however I need to "balance" the
text in the columns.
do you mean;
<fo:block span="all"><fo:leader/></fo:block>
Imagine that each column's text would then "touch" the bottom border. I would try this with tables but then I would have to know exactly where to break the text. Here's some ASCII art of what I need: |---------------------------| |Title1 | | |paragraph text1|t1 continue| |text1 text1 tex|d from prev| |t1 text1 text1 |ious column| |text1 text1 tex|balanced. | | | | |Title2 | | |paragraph text2|t2 continue| |text2 text2 tex|d+balance. | |---------------------------|
Column balancing isnt implemented properly in FOP 0.20.5 I'm afraid. You can experiment by adding some white space after the first lot of text.
