Gustaf, > No error but no result either: > > <fo:table-column column-width="15%" padding="0.5em"/> Strictly speaking, there is no such thing as padding on table columns. A quote from XSL Rec: XSL> 6.7.4. fo:table-column XSL> ... XSL> The following properties apply to this formatting object: XSL> * Common Border, Padding, and Background Properties XSL> Only the background properties from this set apply. If the value XSL> of border-collapse is "collapse" or "collapse-with-precedence" XSL> for the table the border properties also apply. You have to specify padding on single cells, rather than on columns. XSL Recommendation provides a means to specify features on the column via from-table-column() function. However, I am not sure if any XSL FO implementation supports it; ours (XEP) still lacks this feature. In any case, it would be as verbose as specifying explicit padding on each cell: <fo:table-column column-width="15%" padding="0.5em"/> ... <fo:table-cell padding-left="from-table-column()" padding-right="from-table-column()">... (The presence of from-table-column() function explains why padding is permitted by the DTD. It is correct to have any attribute on fo:table-column, but most of them will be used only in expressions that contain 'from-table-column()', and never applied directly). > For some reason, the general 'padding' > attribute doesn't show up in 7.7. Common Border, Padding, > and Background Properties. 'Padding' is a shorthand, listed in a special section of the spec (7.29.15 "padding").
