Re: [docbook-apps] header rule margin problem with FOP

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

While the header and footer rules were working with FOP in 1.68.1, other
things related to indents were not.  For example, article tables of
contents, and tables:

http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/docbook-apps/200507/msg00248.html

You can recover the settings from 1.68.1 by using:

body.start.indent="4pc"
title.margin.left="0pt"

But the use of body.start.indent in FOP will create other indent problems
because of the way the current FOP converts any margin-left into a
start-indent.  Be sure to check your output to see if it exhibits any of the
indent problems.

I have not found a way to overcome the FOP header rule problem.  The rule is
implemented as a bottom border on the header table.  The header table
extends across the page, but for some reaons the bottom rule does not, which
doesn't make any sense.
