RE: text-indent issue
Thanks to you all for pointing me in the right direction. I was able to fix it and get the desired behavior.

Re: text-indent issue
Would you post a PATCH to bugzilla for us?

Re: text-indent issue
Since both the text preceding the nested block and the text following the nested block are within the indented block, the text after the nested block gets indented. You'd need to move the text after the nested block to its own block to not have it be indented. fo:block text-indent=5 This is just for testing purpose and this line will be indented. fo:blockthis is the nested block /fo:block /fo:block fo:block The text following the nested block is indented as well...not sure if this is as per spec. since it does not happen in other renderers. /fo:block If other rendering engines are NOT indenting the text after the nested block, then they are not honoring the spec. The attributes of a block should be applied to ALL the things within the block (unless specifically overridden by a child element's attributes).

RE: text-indent issue
I totally agree that all the PCDATA is owned by the outer fo:block and hence when it applies the text-indent property, it should apply only to the first line in that block. The spec. for text-indent says: This property specifies the indentation of the first line of text in a block. More precisely, it specifies the indentation of the first box that flows into the block's first line box. The box is indented with respect to the left (or right, for right-to-left layout) edge of theline box. User agents should render this indentation as blank space. Any thoughts or comments?

RE: text-indent issue
My apologies. I had confused text-indent with start-indent. I guess FOP has a bug here. The work around appears to be not having text after a nested block.

Can anyone direct me to the code where I can prevent inheritance of the
text-indent property in the scenario mentioned below?
I can point you to the code:
{your-fop-dir}/src/org/apache/fop/fo/flow/Block.java
Unfortunately, I have no precise idea on what exactly needs to be done to
solve your problem... My best guess is that it has something to do with the
'anythingLaidOut' member variable, so I'd start off by watching closely what
happens to that variable when a nested block is added...
HTH!
