Description Steve McCardle 2001-08-21 09:58:18 UTC
1) The measurement of blocks both horizontally and vertically do not seem to 
add up correctly (e.g. I have a block defined as 19cm wide, but it prints as 
being  about 17.8 cms;  and a block 17cms in height only printed as around 16 
cms).

Somebody else did a similar test (after raising the issue in fop-dev) and they 
found that a 6inch column results in 5.625inches.

2) in a table definition (again using -pdf renderer) the contents of one column 
are "creeping" to the left even though the "end" position is defined.  It seems 
to occur when the contents of a previous column has little or no text.  (In my 
test I had one column with lots of W's starting with 10-W's on row-1, reducing 
to 1W on row-10; at row-8 with only 3-W's - the contents of the second column 
start to get dragged over to the left.)

Sorry, part 1) of this bug had nothing to do with with FOP - it boiled down to 
print-setting in Adobe !  ... my mistake.
But - part 2) still seems to be a problem at the moment

I can't reproduce the problem with 0.20.3. Unfortunately, the description
is a little too vague, a testcase would have helped.

batch transition to closed remaining pre-FOP1.0 resolved bugs
