Hi, Here is my test code for 2 rows, 50%, 25cm:
<fo:root text-align="center" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"> <fo:layout-master-set> <fo:simple-page-master master-name="A4_1" margin="1cm" page-width="21cm" page-height="29.7cm"> <fo:region-body/> </fo:simple-page-master> </fo:layout-master-set> <fo:page-sequence master-reference="A4_1"> <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body"> <fo:block-container block-progression-dimension="25cm"> <fo:table table-layout="fixed" width="100%"> <fo:table-body> <fo:table-row height="50%" border="solid"> <fo:table-cell> <fo:block>test1</fo:block> </fo:table-cell> </fo:table-row> <fo:table-row height="50%" border="solid"> <fo:table-cell> <fo:block>test2</fo:block> </fo:table-cell></fo:table-row></fo:table-body></fo:table> </fo:block-container></fo:flow></fo:page-sequence> </fo:root> FOP complains about this (many times): 18 sept. 2007 09:54:37 org.apache.fop.layoutmgr.AbstractBaseLayoutManager getBaseLength GRAVE: Cannot find LM to handle given FO for LengthBase. (fo:table-row, location: 13/49) I understand why the percentages are vaguely defined in CSS, hence the block-progression 'workaround' in XEP I imagine FOP simply does not define what to do with percentages, though. I have worked around the problem for now by setting the individual heights. Indeed, absolute-positioning of block-containers with some xpath magic could be an alternative as there are only a few rows/columns.

I seem to remember that percentages in tables (for row-height and column-width) currently don't work at all. CSS and XSL-FO remain quite vague in their definition of how percentages should be interpreted here. CSS even states explicitly that the behavior of percentages in tables remains undefined (most likely because it leads to all sorts of vicious circles in HTML --read: non-paginated layout-- where the 33% would be roughly a third of the containing HTML-page's height, which *includes* the row on which the percentage is specified). Depending on the complexity of the table in question, you may want to consider switching to block-containers entirely (instead of a table, use absolute-positioned block-containers that correspond to what are the cells in your current situation). Mind that this would not be feasible for a 20-column x 100-row layout, but if the numbers are 2-column x 3-rows, then using a table could prove to be overkill.
