Long lines to be wrapped with a continuation character using XSL-FO

Hi team,

I have a query related to XSL-FO.

I am using XSL-FO to transform my XML to FO output. For a particular element, am using the attribute "wrap-option" set as "wrap", for it to wrap in the output if it exceeds the line limit. It gets wrapped properly in the output.

But, I would like to have an additional feature that, if the text is wrapped in the output, it should have some indication to the user on the wrapping. ie, if a particular line is wrapped to next line, it should have a "+" symbol in the end of the line wherever it is wrapped.

Sample input:-
Testing the wrapped input specification for understanding the wrapping has happened.
Normal line without wrapping.
Again a lengthy line which exceeds the line limit.
Current output:-
Testing the wrapped input specification
for understanding the wrapping has happened.
Normal line without wrapping.
Again a lengthy line which exceeds
the line limit.
Required output:-
Testing the wrapped input specification+
for understanding the wrapping has happened.
Normal line without wrapping.
Again a lengthy line which exceeds+
the line limit.
Please let me know if I can get some help on this.

Thanks and Regards,
Shabeer

Hi Shabeer,

I'm not sure if or how this could be done.
Maybe you should search and ask around on StackOverflow, see if somebody found a similar solution for this.
