Re: MS Word RTF page numbering error

[Jeremias Maerki <de...@greenmail.ch>]

I've just run examples/fo/basic/readme.fo through FOP and Word prints
the page number just fine. The page numbers in RTF are fields, and maybe
they are not properly updated due to some obscure reason. There is a
setting accessible through the "Options" button in Word's print dialog
which enables automatic updating of fields for printing. Maybe enabling
this helps.

If it doesn't help send my the FO and the generated RTF file so I can
investigate if it's somehow FOP's fault, although I doubt it.

Argh. It really looks like a version problem. Just to be sure I checked
the RTF specs to find out if FOP really produces the right command for
printing the page number and it does (\chpgn).
