Hi,

Ending the current fo:block should work fine... Another option would be to
insert an explicit line-feed character
(numeric character reference &#x0A; [*]), although in some cases, this might
get converted into a space.

I'd go with the first option... I'm guessing, right now, you're trying to do
sth like:

<fo:block>
  some text goes here <!-- here you need <br /> -->
  some other text
</fo:block>

So, the simplest would be to make it

<fo:block>some text goes here</fo:block>
<fo:block>some other text</fo:block>

The second option would be

<fo:block>some text goes here &#x0A; some other text</fo:block>



HTH!

Putting a linefeed character U+000A in the content should work, but you have
to be careful of the properties that affect it, specifically
linefeed-treatment="preserve". (I can't remember whether this works in FOP
0.20.5 or not, but I think it does). The other way is to put an empty nested
block, <fo:block/> where you want the line break, and I am pretty sure that
does work.
