[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Re: Newspaper Style Columns
I'm going from XML to PDF using an XSL. I need two columns with a small space in the middle. Unfortunately I cannot use the column-count and column-gap attribute of the fo:region-body element. Why not? Did you try it and get a result you didn't like? Is there an external constraint on your techniques? Are you using a tool that doesn't know how to count? I was originally thinking of using tables, however that wont work. Again, why not? If you don't tell the list more about your requirements, what you have tried, and why you don't like the results you have gotten you will not get much help. You will improve the chances that you will receive prompt and helpful responses by: - asking specific enough questions that answers are possible. Describe what you are trying to do, how you approached it, what happened, and why you don't like the result you got - supplying small samples of files that illustrate your question or problem. For example, an XML file, an XSLT stylesheet, the result you got, and the result you want - all in miniature (and remembering that everything posted to XSL-List is archived in public) - describing the topic of your question concisely in the subject line Good subject lines - those that describe the subject matter of your message - not only increase the chances that you will receive answers to questions or responses to comments, they also make your message and any replies to it accessible in the list archives. -- Tommie -- ====================================================================== B.
