Re: [docbook-apps] FO: block - positioning

[Alex Peshkov <peshkov@renderx.com>]

Hello, Sebastian.

I believe that in your case text at the bottom of the page will be
better positioned using static content (fo:region-after). As for "not
working" space-before - you should add space-before.conditionality="retain"
for it to be applied then following another block.

P.S.: I'm not sure if this question is appropriate for docbook-apps list.

Best regards,

SF> hi,

SF> i just layout the titlepage in FO for our docbook-xml documents.
SF> first the logo should appear [1], after this some whitespace and at the end
SF> of the page, in a block [2] doc-title [3], and some revivion infos [4].
SF> how can i keep blocks [1] + [2] within page AND be sure that blcok [2] will
SF> be rendered at the bottom of the page.

SF> i tried keep.together.within-page and keep-with-next (all blocks) together
SF> with space-before.opt/min/max(block 2) but either block 2 is rendered

SF> i also tried vertical-align=bottom/baseline .... with no effect ...

SF> im using XEP.
