  • 1.  Unwanted indentation in heading row of tables in PDF with FOP 0.95

    Posted 07-01-2008 22:58
    Howdy,



    I'm using:

    * Saxon 6.5.5

    * Xerces 2.8.0

    * Apache FOP 0.95 beta


    I'm in the process of upgrading to FOP 0.95 from 0.20.5, and one thing I noticed in my 0.95 PDF output is that the headings in the heading row for each table are now indented and no longer aligned to the left. They're not center-aligned; they're all indented a specific amount that is the same for every cell in the heading row. The text in the regular table cells is still left-aligned and looks fine. It's just the heading row that has gone wonky.

    Can I control this somewhere? I haven't found anything that talks about heading row alignment.
    Much thanks!!

  • 2.  RESOLVED: Unwanted indentation in heading row of tables in PDF with FOP 0.95

    All fixed. Turns out I had a template override for the thead template that was missing the start-indent="0pt" attribute in the <fo: table-header>.
