tab set
Hello,
is it possible to set a tab within a block or another elemnt. I want to
indent text, which is in two lines. The indent Text have to start a the same
position in both lines. Insert   does not help, because there is always
displacement depentent of the letter before.
Thanks for any answers.

Well, the fact that tabs are white-space is only relevant for
validation. Tabs are passed through to the application unchanged.
It's the XSLFO spec which guides how tabs should handled in FOP.

I'd like to add that tabs are considered whitespace in XML. Tabs as in
Word can't be used in XSL-FO.
from the XML spec:
> (white space) consists of one or more space (#x20) characters, carriage
> returns, line feeds, or tabs.
