    No, I have not tried another FO proc but I think that I am getting ready
    to try XEP because FOP has some limitations that I don't like,
    especially if this issue is bug. I have tried the beta FOP that is out
    now but it looks like it doesn't have the functionality that 0.20.5 has
    yet.

    I was hoping that the footnote issue would have been prevalent enough to
    have dialog on it in the forums but I have not seen anything like that
    during my searches, which make me think maybe I am doing something
    wrong?

    Maybe it's time to spend money. ;-)

    I believe this is a bug in FOP 0.20.5. Have you tried the same
    document with another XSL-FO processor?

    All,
    I am seeing my footnotes clobber the text above it. It
    is especially noticable when certain tables break across page boundries.
    But I also see it in some of the general text above it.

    I am using FOP 0.20.5 and Saxon 6.5. and version 1.70.1
    of the stylesheets.

    I have adjusted the following:
    region.after.extent
    body.margin.bottom
    page.margin.bottom

    but have not had any success in solving this problem.
    Which section does footnote go into?


    Any Ideas?
