    Description

      I am using FOP to convert from XHTML to RTF using Antennahouse Stylesheet for XHTML to XSL-FO transformation.

      My scenario is desbribed below:

      I am using stylesheet xhtml2fo.xslt and it works fine when parsing XHTML to PDF, but when I change Fop MIME_TYPE to RTF and execute the same code, RTF output file does not contain first line indentation according XHTML style.

      1) XHTML input:

      <p style="text-indent: 3cm">BLAH BLAH BLAH</p>

      Stylesheet xhtml2fo.xslt:

      http://www.antennahouse.com/XSLsample/sample-xsl-xhtml2fo/xhtml2fo.xsl

      2) FO Output:

      <fo:block text-indent:3m>BLAH BLAH BLAH</fo:block>

      3) Expected RTF output:

      { fiXXX BLAH BLAH BLAH }

      4) I have verified FOP source code and noticed that current version have a bug on RtfText:
      <pre>
      /** constant for left indent first */
      public static final String LEFT_INDENT_FIRST = "fi-";
      </pre>
      5) Also TextAttributesConverter is not considering text-indent attribute:

      public static RtfAttributes convertAttributes(Block fobj)
      throws FOPException {

      FOPRtfAttributes attrib = new FOPRtfAttributes();

      attrFont(fobj.getCommonFont(), attrib);

      attrFontColor(fobj.getColor(), attrib);

      //attrTextDecoration(fobj.getTextDecoration(), attrib);

      attrBlockBackgroundColor(fobj.getCommonBorderPaddingBackground(), attrib);

      attrBlockMargin(fobj.getCommonMarginBlock(), attrib);

      attrBlockTextAlign(fobj.getTextAlign(), attrib);

      attrBorder(fobj.getCommonBorderPaddingBackground(), attrib, fobj);

      attrBreak(fobj, attrib);

      return attrib;
      }

      6) I implemented the following patch and it is working fine for me. Check this out:

      • Fixed LEFT_INDENT_FIRST to public static final String LEFT_INDENT_FIRST = "fi";
      • New method to convert text-indent attribute:

      public static RtfAttributes convertAttributes(Block fobj)
      throws FOPException

      { ... attrBlockTextIndent(fobj.getTextIndent(), attrib); ... return attrib; }

      private static void attrBlockTextIndent(Length textIndent, FOPRtfAttributes rtfAttr)

      { rtfAttr.setTwips(RtfText.LEFT_INDENT_FIRST, textIndent.getValue()); }

      Thank you!
