Problem with text flow

Hi there

I want to do something like this (see in attachment), but I do not know 
how. If I use something like this
<fo:block>
     <fo:block>
        <xsl:element name="fo:external-graphic">
            <xsl:attribute name="src">
                <xsl:value-of select="imagepath"/>
            </xsl:attribute>
        </xsl:element>
     </fo:block>
     <xsl:value-of select="text"/>
</fo:block>

I have got picture and text under it. If I use something like this
<fo:block>
     <xsl:element name="fo:external-graphic">
        <xsl:attribute name="src">
            <xsl:value-of select="imagepath"/>
        </xsl:attribute>
     </xsl:element>
     <xsl:value-of select="text"/>
</fo:block>

I have got a big blank space between first and other rows.

What can I do for result like on the picture from attach?

Miroslav

You could use a table to mimic this layout. But you would have to 
manually break the text yourself at the end of the first cell of text (2 
column first row in the table). So this solution may not be acceptable

I tried to use this feature, but got very sad result:
WARNING: fo:float is not yet implemented.


Have anyone other idea?

You would need to place the fo:external-graphic in an fo:float with  
float="start", IIC.

Unfortunately, this is not yet supported by any released FOP version.  
IIRC, there is a branch that contains a basic implementation for  
floats, but AFAIK this branch has not yet been merged back into the  
trunk.

No immediate workaround comes to mind.


Sorry,

Andreas
