FOP 0.20.5 - Tables with "intelligent" cell-widths

Hi,

I just read that there is no automatic table layout in FOP yet. And in FOP
0.20.5 there is the limitation that cell-withs must explicitly be defined.
Is there any work-around for page-wide tables to adjust cell-widths
according to the included text length?

thanks,
Roman

Hi, Roman,

In times past, I've solved this problem by doing calculations in XSLT while 
creating the table. Here's a link to my solution from another thread:
