I'm not sure I've understood exactly what you want but I think you could
try to use a block-container with absolute positioning to draw your
table borders using SVG for example (similar to the borders.fo examples
in docs/examples/fo). And then you create your table underneath without
borders.

Re: Multiple fonts
Posted by "Peter B. West" <pb...@powerup.com.au>.
This was in the final PR, at least, and it is a piece of syntactical
nastiness which comes to us from CSS. Not only is the font-family value
a comma-separated list of indeterminate length, but individual names may
include spaces, and such names need not be quoted. Syntax like this
makes property expression parsing a nightmare.

I think that's is something that came in between the CR and Rec of
XSL:FO. FOP is still not 100% compliant to the XSL:FO REC. So currently,
you can only specify one font.
Try working with fo:inline in the meantime.
But thanks for bringing this up. I didn't know about this change until
today. Would you be so kind as to create a bug report in Bugzilla? This
will likely remind us to implement this functionality one day.

Multiple fonts
Posted by Gilles Beaugeais <be...@syselog.fr>.
Hye all,
I am using FOP-0.20.3RC.
I have an xml file coded in 'utf-8'.
So I add at the beginning of my xsl-fo file the
line : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
And I want that the default font is 'Helvetica' and 'Symbol'
when there are symbols in the text (which are not
available with Helvetica font).
Therefore, I try <fo:block font-family="Helvetica, Symbol">
but I got an error message
'unknown font Helvetica, Symbol,normal,normal so defaulted font to any'
I try to put quotes surrending font name
(<fo:block font-family="'Helvetica', 'Symbol'">)
but the same error occurs.
FOP doesn't seem to find the separator between fonts.
Can someone help ?
