White space problems with TXTRenderer
Hello ,
I am using FOP 0.20.4 to produce TXT file from XML i/p
document. By the posts I have read about FOP
TXTRenderer, it seems it does not generate production
quality TXT o/p.
for e.g. when I write in XSL-FO as
<fo:block>
<!--some text.. -->
</fo:block>
the TXT o/p generate extra spaces. The TXT o/p is also
not consistent. For e.g. if my XML has many
records(tags) , sometimes white spaces problems comes
in for e.g. 8th record , sometimes white space problem
comes in some other record.
Is there a way to control the o/p behaviour
predictably? I want that the TXT o/p should appear as
equal to a PDF o/p. Ideally the same stylesheet must
produce identical PDF and TXT o/p s. Is it possible!
Regards,
Mukul

The TXT renderer is certainly not FOP's most sophisticated renderer and,
unfortunately, its developer is no longer active. Please read about the
text renderer here: http://xml.apache.org/fop/output.html#txt
I know there have been similar questions in the past. So please search
through the mailing list archives. I'm pretty sure you'll find some
useful information. Good luck.
