See: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/docbook-apps/200201/msg00532.html The patch is no longer needed as of Fop 20.3rc, which I believe was the beta for the current version 20.3. What happens when you skip the patch? You didn't mention whether you used the Docbook XSL xalan2 extensions, which help with tables. You should include extensions/xalan2.jar in your java CLASSPATH. -- Bob Stayton 400 Encinal Street Publications Architect Santa Cruz, CA 95060 Technical Publications voice: (831) 427-7796 Caldera International, Inc. fax: (831) 429-1887 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
