Subject: proposal; Amend fo:letter-spacing
Hello TC, In ODF the letter spacing attribute specifies the amount of space between letters. This is the way that XSL does things and this is fine for things like webpages. Unfortunately for DTP applications this is not really what is expected. The spacing between characters in DTP is not a static value, it is a percentage value. Basically when you have an 'm' the spacing adjustment is wider than when you have an 'i'. In KOffice we intend to use the percentage based letter spacing adjustment and we were surprised reading the spec (and trying out OOo) that this is not possible. Would it be possible to adjust the spec to also allow percentage based values? Which would add the <ref name="percent"/> and we end up with the following; <define name="style-text-properties-attlist" combine="interleave"> <optional> <attribute name="fo:letter-spacing"> <choice> <ref name="length"/> <value>normal</value> <ref name="percent"/> </choice> </attribute> </optional> </define> Thanks! -- Thomas Zander
