Hi all

We've got a FOP engine mainly used to produce PDF files. Now, output to RTF
is also desired. Most formatting is good, but absolutely positioned block
containers don't work.

<fo:block-container id="sender" absolute-position="absolute" top="2cm"
left="6cm" />

I've read some posts stating that RTF does support absolute positioning, but
only for the current page. If a page break occurs before the absolute
positioned block is processed, positioning relates to that new page.

In my case, all absolutely positioned block containers (4 of 'em) are on the
first page, and at the top (like the sender's address of a letter would be),
so I feel this restriction does not apply here.

a) Does FOP support absolute positioning in RTF, what do I need to know?
b) If FOP provides no support, can I post-process the produced RTF?

FOP-Version: 0.92beta
SDK: 1.5 update7
OS: Windows XP SP2
'RTF Viewer': MS Word 2003

Thanks a lot
Simon Niederberger
