Hi Vincent, Further to your e-mail in response (thank you) to my sending the table.xsl (see bottom of e-mail):
1. At what level do I run the fop command? I'veI tried at various levels but the fop command is not recognized. At what intermediate level will the FO file be generated and saved? 2. I altered the document xsl reference for keep-together.table-column to table-row and it stopped page breaks in tables, ie, a long table trailing down past the end of page. Best Regards Akagi No, this file is the XSLT stylesheet. The (XSL-)FO file is what’s produced by this XSLT stylesheet when run by an XSLT processor. It contains elements from the "http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" namespace (<fo:block>, etc.). Your question indicates that you are directly getting the PDF file from your tool chain. Try and find out how to obtain the intermediate FO file. You can also obtain it with FOP by running it on the command-line: fop -xml doc.xml -xsl table.xsl -foout doc.fo Having the FO file is the only way we can help you. Please send it as an attachment to the fop-users list if it’s of reasonable size and doesn’t contain sensitive content. We will answer on that list so that every user can benefit from the experience.

You have to find out what fits your needs best: - add a keep-together on the table-row - Set widows/orphans to "1" - try widow/orphan-content-limit (see [1]) [1] http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.94/extensions.html#widow-orphan-content- limit However, this shouldn't really happen in the first place as there is a rule in the table layout manager that suppresses breaking a table-row before all columns have contributed some mark to the row. If you could post an FO that shows the problem, that would be great.
