Hi
I'm re-sending this problem as I didn't re-phrase after having posted it to FO and concluded that it is either FO or FOP related. The problem is that, as per below fragments, a fo:inline within fo:basic-link in an XSLT template, gets padded with an extra space at left and right in the resulting FO and consequently PDF output file. - The same FO results from both FOP and XEP. - The problem is eliminated if the space is removed manually in the FO file before transforming to PDF. I tried adding <xsl:strip-space fo:inline> but it didn't seem to apply to a fo element. Keeping the fo:inline within fo:basic-link is needed to provide the normal web link appearance. Has anyone experienced this problem and/or an XSLT solution? Many thanks for help Khaled ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I've added the element WebLink to xsl:strip-space to overcome, but didn't work. The source XML is: employing <WebLink url="http://www.xml.org" <http://www.xml.org>>XML</WebLink>-based single-sourcing. The XSLT for element WebLink: <xsl:template match="WebLink"> <fo:basic-link> <xsl:attribute name="external-destination"><xsl:value-of select="@url"/></xsl:attribute> <fo:inline color="blue" text-decoration="underline"><xsl:apply-templates/></fo:inline> </fo:basic-link> </xsl:template> The Saxon generated FO is: employing <fo:basic-link external-destination="http://www.xml.org" <http://www.xml.org>> <fo:inline color="blue" text-decoration="underline">XML</fo:inline> </fo:basic-link>-based single-sourcing And the FOP 0.93 (and XEP 4) generated PDF is (an extra space around the term "XML"; two spaces to the left and an unintended space before the dash): employing XML -based single-sourcing. When the FO is edited to ensure no extra space around the <fo:inline>, the PDF comes fine: employing XML-based single-sourcing. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
