The xsl
file below will not do it.
The XSL file below does not describe a result template rule.
If change the first line to:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format">
It renders to PDF exactly as I would expect it to.
Right ... because that is the document element of an XSL-FO instance.
I would have though the
fo:block would have rendered white space identically in both cases as it is
a fo property and not an XSL. Can you please tell me what it is I need to
do to the file below to make it render white space correctly at all times.
Did you not think we were already trying to do so?
- <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format">
- <fo:root>
- <fo:layout-master-set>
...
The above does nothing for XSLT except be considered an empty stylesheet.
Perhaps you wanted:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format">
<xsl:template match="/">
<fo:root>
...
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Otherwise, you have an empty set of template rules engaging only the
built-in template rules. The <fo:root> elements is bug a top-level
foreign-namespace construct.
I hope this helps.
