Re: Converting preformatted APT to PDF

[Lukas Theussl]

Are you saying that lines in the pdf/html output are wrapped differently 
than in the apt source? Pre-formatted text by definition preserves both 
spaces and line breaks so the text should be rendered exactly as in the 
apt source.

Hi All,

I've been battling with trying to get preformatted text converted to pdf
with the maven pdf plug-in (
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-pdf-plugin/ ).

The problem is with long or wide text, the text overflows the paper. The
text is not wrapped by line or by page.  Text never flows to a second page.

The html output is really nice :-)

The apt source is :-

    +-----+
    large
    number
    of
    lines
    ....
    +-----+


I've tried creating pdf-config.xml file :-

    <xsl:stylesheet
             version="1.0"
             xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
             xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";>

             <xsl:attribute-set name="body.pre"
    use-attribute-sets="base.pre.style">
                     <xsl:attribute name="font-size">6pt</xsl:attribute>
                     <xsl:attribute name="line-height">7pt</xsl:attribute>
                     <xsl:attribute
    name="keep-together">auto</xsl:attribute>
                     <xsl:attribute
    name="keep-with-next.within-page">auto</xsl:attribute>
                     <xsl:attribute name="wrap-option">wrap</xsl:attribute>
             </xsl:attribute-set>
    </xsl:stylesheet>


but no joy.

Any suggestions to enable wrapping in pdf ?

Many thanks,

Pete
