[xep-support] How to use <fo:footnote> properly?

[Alexander Peshkov]

Hello Ching,

Sorry, but I can't think of another work-around for this problem and
in my opinion 'overflow' property has nothing to do with it as well.

Best regards,

MC> Thanks a lot, Alexander.

MC> I actually thought about your approach and later abandoned it,

MC> you think using the attribute "overflow" in the static-content
MC> xsl-region-body would solve it? I tried, it didn't work though I
MC> am not sure that I set this attribute right. Any hint or help is  
MC> greatly appreciated. 

MC> Thanks again for your prompt reply.

MC> Hello Ching,

MC> There is no such functionality in XSL-FO 1.0. As a workaround I can
MC> suggest you to use markers. In your case where will be special marker
MC> class that holds footnote body and respective fo:retrieve-marker in
MC> the static content (xsl-region-after). It will look like this:

MC> <xsl:template match="code">
MC>   <fo:block>
MC>     <xsl:if test="star='true'">
MC>         <fo:marker marker-class-name="asterisc-footnote"><fo:block>* requires extra digit.</fo:block></fo:marker> *
MC>     </xsl:if>
MC>     <xsl:apply-templates select="codeValue"/>
MC>   </fo:block>
MC> </xsl:template>

MC> and then in the static-content will look like this:

MC> <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-after">
MC>   <fo:block>
MC>     <fo:retrieve-marker retrieve-class-name="asterisc-footnote"
MC>                         retrieve-boundary="page"
MC>                         retrieve-position="first-starting-within-page"/>
MC>   </fo:block>
MC> </fo:static-content>

MC> Note that a drawback of this approach is an empty area (in the
MC> static-content) when no markers are present on the page.

MC> Hope this helps.
