Hi! I need to create a PDF version of a business form on the fly using XSL:FO. The form has several boxed-in areas that are fixed in both size and location. I have tried to use the absolute-position="fixed" attribute of the block-container but have not had any success because the boxes always seem to get squeezed together and I can't get them positioned properly on the page.
Is there a way to define fixed size and position for bordered blocks? If so, any code snippets or tutorials you could point me to would be very much appreciated!

Try <fo:block-container position="absolute" top="0cm" left="0cm" height="4cm" width="12cm"> You can also use "bottom" and "right" to define the position of the lower right vertex. Check the spec for details: http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/slice6.html#fo_block-container
