Urgent Question about FOP-hyphenation-wrap
Hi,
I am trying to wrap data within a cell so it does not overflow to the next
column.
I have tried the following already (which do not work for me):
keep-together.within-column="always" for cell or for block
wrap-option="wrap" for cell or for block
I am also using hyphenation. It works perfectly for everything except data
that has an "_" (underscore in it). I have attached my resulting PDF as an
example.
What can I do to get this data that has underscores in it to wrap within the
cell?
I am using FOP 0.95
Any help is much appreciated.
If this is not the correct email address for such a question, please let me
know the exact email address where I can post such a question.
Thanks,
Ashwini

FOP implements Unicode UAX#14 line breaking rules. That specification
defines how words are broken. Using a custom hyphenation patterns (i.e.
built by you) you could probably (I've never done it) customize the
work-breaking behaviour a bit. But I don't know if there's a readily
available hyphenation pattern that would allow what you want (there
probably isn't). My earlier recommendation still stands: use zero-width
spaces (or soft hyphens) to add additional word-breaking possibilities.
Various people on this list have done it this way.
For example: http://markmail.org/message/jecf2fzs4gecsjiz

RE: Urgent Question about FOP-hyphenation-wrap
Posted by Ashwini Sawant <as...@impactinfosys.com>.
Hello,
The issue is fixed for "_". But it still cannot wrap for a few other special
characters, one of that being "@". So I also surrounded that with a zero
width space for now.
But is there any hyphenation pattern that will work on these characters?
So we don't need to make these special changes.
Thanks

The FAQ entry I gave you doesn't mention keep-together at all. As you
noticed, it won't help you with this. What you should look at is
inserting zero-width spaces.

RE: Urgent Question about FOP-hyphenation-wrap
Posted by Ashwini Sawant <as...@impactinfosys.com>.
Thanks for the reply Jeremias.
However like I said in my post setting keep-together.within-column="always"
for fo:table-cell did not work for me. The only thing that seems to work in
my case is the hyphenation. However the hyphenation pattern I am using (the
only setting I have done for this is language="en") does not hyphenate words
that have "_" in them. Is there any other hyphenation pattern to be used?
I also tried using the keep-together.within-column="always" without the
hyphenation, that worsened the situation. Since then all the text that was
being hyphenated before also overflows the cells.
Following is my code block for a cell:
<fo:table-cell
border-start-style="solid"
border-after-style="solid"
border-before-style="solid"
border-end-style="solid"
keep-together.within-column="always">
<fo:block
font-weight="normal"
text-align="left" hyphenate="true">
<xsl:value-of select="object_name"/>
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
anything I can change in this that will help?
