Look carefully: you want to have the *page count*, or alternatively, the last page number in the page sequence (because counting starts with 1). Usually this can be done with a page number citation referring to something on the last page, however, there is *no* way to refer to something on a

Use the region-after sections of your static-content of your page-sequences. Okay, thanks. Er, is there any way to do this inside a fo:flow ? In general, i would say: no. Maybe you can construct something in a page-wide table. I still advise you to use the static-content

blank page

Hi all, With using version 0.20.5rc i get strange blank pages in the pdfs. This is not the case with the same fo-docs when i process them with the old 0.20.4. (I tested this by reinstalling 0.20.4.) For example, in 0.20.4 i see the following flow-processing: [1] [1] [2] (There are multiple

zero width space

2003-01-02 Thread Oscar Schoof
Hi all, I'm trying to use zero width spacing for word-wrapping purposes. For some reason it doesn't work. I tried using the code #8203; and also #x200B; for this zero width space and use Fop version 0.20.4. But in, for example, fo:blockword#8203;break/fo:block i get word break, with a 'normal'

FOP 0.20.4 incorrectly uses a full space width for basically all Unicode space characters. This is fixed in 0.20.5rc, please upgrade. Ok, i did. And it solved this issue. Thanks, Oscar - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

PCL problem

2002-12-23 Thread Oscar Schoof
Hi all, i've got a problem with a special character (and maybe with more, but did not notice yet). In this case it is about the mu, the greek character often used for a shorthand for micro. In my fo i convert this character to #x3BC;. Now, when i process my fo to pdf with FOP it shows ok in the

Re: PCL problem

2002-12-23 Thread Oscar Schoof
this all comes down to which font you are using. The PCL renderer doesnt support custom fonts. From the standard 14 fonts, the mu character x03BC has a glyph in the Symbol font. Maybe your PCL printer doesnt support the Symbol Font? Hi Chris, i'm using only font-family Helvetica. No extra fonts

convert the docs/examples/fo/fonts.fo example to PCL and send it to your printer. If you can see the mu character in the output look into fonts.fo how to make it appear. You will probably have to use font-family=Symbol. Jeremias, Thanks. Adding inline the font-family and using the right code out
