Subject: Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: Re: DocBook tables and FOP
I am still a little confused about this issue. I have turned on the parameters use.extensios, tablecolumns.extension and set the parameter default.table.width, but no do. My parammeters in colspec colwidth="17*" , which I would expect to be 17% of 6 inches, but norms stylesheets (1.45) writes 17% in the table column-width attribute of fo:table-column., allthough I am also including saxon644.jar in my classpath. Am I missing something ? Furthermore, the deault layout is of the stylesheets are "fixed", which is not supported by FOP 0.20.1. I have written a small template, which change a table to an informaltable with a block text below, since FOP again do no support fo:table-with-caption but only fo:table ! Doesn't any of you uses DocBook table, or are you all using informaltable? Norm, you wrote that you that you were going to write something about this issue in the FAQ, where is that located ?
