Sample statement.
<fo:table-column column-width="{$SBWidth-$ImageWidthRender}"/>
This one place where I am using variables to define widths for FO table
columns
(I am primarily using FO tables and nested tables for laying out my
document)
QUESTION:
If I am specifying those variables as, 300mm and 200mm respectively I
suppose there will be a problem in trying to subtract them with the
units present.
Is there some way to specify a particular UNIT to be used all over so
that I can specify those values without the units appended (makes
subtraction easy)?
Is there a way to have this subtraction performed with the units
present, without having to write intensive string parsing functions to
separate the values & units?
FYI - We are using a licensed version of Apoc FO Renderer
(www.chive.com)
and .NET System.Xml.Xsl classes. ( derivative from MSXML 4.0)
Please do let me know what you think.
Thanks,
