6 Formatting Objects6.1 Introduction to Formatting ObjectsThe refined formatting object tree describes one or more intended presentations of the information within this tree. Formatting is the process which converts the description into a presentation. See [3 Introduction to Formatting]. The presentation is represented, abstractly, by an area tree, as defined in the area model. See [4 Area Model]. Each possible presentation is represented by one or more area trees in which the information in the refined formatting object tree is positioned on a two and one-half dimensional surface. There are three kinds of formatting objects: (1) those that generate areas, (2) those that return areas, but do not generate them, and (3) those that are used in the generation of areas. The first and second kinds are typically called flow objects. The third kind is either a layout object or an auxiliary object. The kind of formatting object is indicated by the terminology used with the object. Formatting objects of the first kind are said to "generate one or more areas". Formatting objects of the second kind are said to "return one or more areas". Formatting objects of the first kind may both generate and return areas. Formatting objects of the third kind are "used in the generation of areas"; that is, they act like parameters to the generation process. 6.1.1 Definitions Common to Many Formatting Objects This categorization leads to defining two traits which characterize the relationship between an area and the formatting objects which generate and return that area. These traits are generated-by and returned-by. The value of the generated-by trait is a single formatting object. A formatting object F is defined to generate an area A if the semantics of F specify the generation of one or more areas and A is one of the areas thus generated, or is a substituted form of one of the areas thus generated, as specified in section [4.7.2 Line-building]. In the case of substituted glyph-areas, the generating formatting object is deemed to be the formatting object which generated the glyph-area which comes first in the sequence of substituted glyph-areas. In the case of an inserted glyph-area (e.g., an automatically-generated hyphen) the generating formatting object is deemed to be the generating formatting object of the last glyph-area preceding the inserted glyph-area in the pre-order traversal of the area tree. The value of the returned-by trait is a set of pairs, where each pair consists of a formatting object and a positive integer. The integer represents the position of the area in the ordering of all areas returned by the formatting object. A formatting object F is defined to return the sequence of areas A, B, C, ... if the pair (F,1) is a member of the returned-by trait of A, the pair (F,2) is a member of the returned-by trait of B, the pair (F,3) is a member of the returned-by trait of C, ... If an area is a member of the sequence of areas returned by a formatting object, then either it was generated by the formatting object or it was a member of the sequence of areas returned by a child of that formatting object. Not all areas returned by a child of a formatting object need be returned by that formatting object. A formatting object may generate an area that has, as some of its children areas, areas returned by the children of that formatting object. These children (in the area tree) of the generated area are not returned by the formatting object to which they were returned. A set of nodes in a tree is a lineage if:
The set of formatting objects that an area is returned by is a lineage. Areas returned by a formatting object may be either normal or out-of-line. Normal areas represent areas in the "normal flow of text"; that is, they become area children of the areas generated by the formatting object to which they are returned. Normal areas have a returned-by lineage of size one. There is only one kind of normal area. Out-of-line areas are areas used outside the normal flow of text either because they are absolutely positioned or they are part of a float or footnote. Out-of-line areas may have a returned-by lineage of size greater than one. The area-class trait indicates which class, normal or out-of-line, an area belongs to. For out-of-line areas, it also indicates the subclass of out-of-line area. The values for this trait are: "xsl-normal", "xsl-absolute", "xsl-footnote", "xsl-side-float", or "xsl-before-float". An area is normal if and only if the value of the area-class trait is "xsl-normal"; otherwise, the area is an out-of-line area. (See section [4.2.5 Stacking Constraints].) The areas returned-by a given formatting object are ordered as noted above. This ordering defines an ordering on the sub-sequence of areas that are of a given area-class, such as the sub-sequence of normal areas. An area A precedes an area B in the sub-sequence if and only if area A precedes area B in the areas returned-by the formatting objects. A reference-area chain is defined as a sequence of reference-areas that is either generated by the same formatting object that is not a page-sequence formatting object, or that consists of the region reference-areas or normal-flow-reference-areas (see [6.4.13 fo:region-body]) generated using region formatting objects assigned to the same flow (see [6.4.1.4 Flows and Flow Mapping]. The reference-areas in the sequence are said to be "contained" by the reference-area chain, and they have the same ordering relative to each other in the sequence as they have in the area tree, using pre-order traversal order of the area tree. |
6.3 Formatting Objects Summary
6.4 Declarations and Pagination and Layout Formatting ObjectsThe root node of the formatting object tree must be an fo:root formatting object. The children of the fo:root formatting object are a single fo:layout-master-set, an optional fo:declarations, and a sequence of one or more fo:page-sequences. The fo:layout-master-set defines the geometry and sequencing of the pages; the children of the fo:page-sequences, which are called flows (contained in fo:flow and fo:static-content), provide the content that is distributed into the pages. The fo:declarations object is a wrapper for formatting objects whose content is to be used as a resource to the formatting process. The process of generating the pages is done automatically by the XSL processor formatting the result tree. The children of the fo:layout-master-set are the pagination and layout specifications. The names of these specifications end in "-master". There are two types of pagination and layout specifications: page-masters and page-sequence-masters. Page-masters have the role of describing the intended subdivisions of a page and the geometry of these subdivisions. Page-sequence-masters have the role of describing the sequence of page-masters that will be used to generate pages during the formatting of an fo:page-sequence. 6.4.1.1 Page-sequence-mastersEach fo:page-sequence-master characterizes a set of possible sequences of page-masters. For any given fo:page-sequence, only one of the possible set of sequences will be used. The sequence that is used is any sequence that satisfies the constraints determined by the individual page-masters, the flows which generate pages from the page-masters, and the fo:page-sequence-master itself. The fo:page-sequence-master is used to determine which page-masters are used and in which order. The children of the fo:page-sequence-master are a sequence of sub-sequence specifications. The page-masters in a sub-sequence may be specified by a reference to a single page-master or as a repetition of one or more page-masters. For example, a sequence might begin with several explicit page-masters and continue with a repetition of some other page-master (or masters). The fo:single-page-master-reference is used to specify a sub-sequence consisting of a single page-master. There are two ways to specify a sub-sequence that is a repetition. The fo:repeatable-page-master-reference specifies a repetition of a single page-master. The fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives specifies the repetition of a set of page-masters. Which of the alternative page-masters is used at a given point in the sub-sequence is conditional and may depend on whether the page number is odd or even, is the first page, is the last page, or is blank. The "maximum-repeats" property on the repetition specification controls the number of repetitions. If this property is not specified, there is no limit on the number of repetitions. 6.4.1.2 Page-mastersA page-master is a master that is used to generate a page. A page is a viewport/reference pair in which the viewport-area is a child of the area tree root. A page-viewport-area is defined to be the viewport-area of a page, and a page-area is defined to be the unique child of a page-viewport-area. The page-viewport-area is defined by the output medium; the page-area holds the page contents and has the effect of positioning the page contents on the output medium. A single page-master may be used multiple times. Each time it is used it generates a single page; for example, a page-master that is referenced from an fo:repeatable-page-master-reference will be used by the fo:page-sequence to generate one page for each occurrence of the reference in the specified sub-sequence. NOTE: In this specification, there is only one kind of page-master, the fo:simple-page-master. Future versions of this specification may add additional kinds of page-masters. An fo:simple-page-master has, as children, specifications for one or more regions. A region specification is used as a master, the region-master, in generating viewport/reference pair consisting of a region-viewport-area and a region-reference-area. The region-viewport-area is always a child of a page-area generated using the parent of the region-master. NOTE: Each region is defined by a region formatting object. Each region formatting object has a name and a definite position. In addition, the region's height or width is fixed and the other dimension may be either fixed or indefinite. For example, a region that is the body of a Web page may have indefinite height. The specification of the region determines the size and position of region-viewport-areas generated using the region formatting object. The positioning of the viewport is relative to its page-area parent. For version 1.0 of this recommendation, a page-master will consist of up to five regions: "region-body" and four other regions, one on each side of the body. To allow the side regions to correspond to the current writing-mode, these regions are named "region-before" (which corresponds to "header" in the "lr-tb" writing-mode), "region-after" (which corresponds to "footer" in the "lr-tb" writing-mode), "region-start" (which corresponds to a "left-sidebar" in the "lr-tb" writing-mode) and "region-end" (which corresponds to a "right-sidebar" in the "lr-tb" writing-mode). It is expected that a future version of the recommendation will introduce a mechanism that allows a page-master to contain an arbitrary number of arbitrarily sized and positioned regions. Some types of region have conditional sub-regions associated with them, and the associated region-reference-areas are divided up by having child areas corresponding to the sub-regions, including a "main-reference-area" for the region. For region-masters to which the column-count property applies, the main-reference-area is further subdivided by having child-areas designated as "span-reference-areas" whose number depends upon the number of spans (i.e. block-areas with span="all") occurring on the page. These in turn are subdivided by having child-areas designated as "normal-flow-reference-areas", whose number depends on the number of columns specified. 6.4.1.3 Page GenerationPages are generated by the formatter's processing of fo:page-sequences. As noted above, each page is a viewport/reference pair in which the viewport-area is a child of the area tree root. Each page is generated using a page-master to define the region-viewport-areas and region-reference-areas that correspond to the regions specified by that page-master. Each fo:page-sequence references either an fo:page-sequence-master or a page-master. If the reference is to a page-master, this is interpreted as if it were a reference to an fo:page-sequence-master that repeats the referenced page-master an unbounded number of times. An fo:page-sequence references a page-master if either the fo:page-sequence directly references the page-master via the "master-name" property or that property references an fo:page-sequence-master that references the page-master. 6.4.1.4 Flows and Flow MappingThere are two kinds of flows: fo:static-content and fo:flow. An fo:static-content flow holds content, such as the text that goes into headers and footers, that is repeated on many of the pages. The fo:flow flow holds content that is distributed across a sequence of pages. The processing of the fo:flow flow is what determines how many pages are generated to hold the fo:page-sequence. The fo:page-sequence-master is used as the generator of the sequence of page-masters into which the flow children content is distributed. The children of a flow are a sequence of block-level flow objects. Each flow has a name that is given by its "flow-name" property. No two flows may have the same name. The assignment of flows to regions on a page-master is determined by a flow-map. The flow-map is an association between the flow children of the fo:page-sequence and regions defined within the page-masters referenced by that fo:page-sequence. In version 1.0 of this recommendation, the flow-map is implicit. The "flow-name" property of a flow specifies to which region that flow is assigned. Each region has a "region-name" property. The implicit flow-map assigns a flow to the region that has the same name. In future versions of XSL, the flow-map is expected to become an explicit formatting object. To avoid requiring users to generate region-names, the regions all have default values for the "region-name" property. The region-body, region-before, region-after, region-start, and region-end have the default names "xsl-region-body", "xsl-region-before", "xsl-region-after", "xsl-region-start", and "xsl-region-end", respectively. In addition, an fo:static-content formatting object may have a "region-name" property value of "xsl-before-float-separator" or "xsl-footnote-separator". If a conditional sub-region of the region-body is used to generate a reference-area on a particular page, the fo:static-content whose name corresponds to the conditional sub-region shall be formatted into the reference-area associated with the sub-region, as specified in section [6.10.1.3 Conditional Sub-Regions]. 6.4.1.5 Constraints on Page GenerationThe areas that are descendants of a page-area are constrained by the
page-master used to generate the page-area and the flows that are assigned
to the regions specified on the page-master. For
fo:flow flows, the areas generated by the descendants of the flow are
distributed across the pages in the sequence that were generated using
page-masters having the region to which the flow is assigned. For
fo:static-content
flows, the processing of the flow is repeated for each page generated
using a page-master having the region to which the flow is assigned
with two exceptions:
for a fo:static-content with a flow-name of
6.4.1.6 Pagination Tree StructureThe result tree structure is shown below.
Common Usage: This is the top node of the formatting object tree. It holds an fo:layout-master-set formatting object (which holds all masters used in the document), an optional fo:declarations, and one or more fo:page-sequence objects. Each fo:page-sequence represents a sequence of pages that result from formatting the content children of the fo:page-sequence. NOTE: Areas: Page-viewport-areas are returned by the fo:page-sequence children of the fo:root formatting object. The fo:root does not generate any areas. Constraints: The children of the root of the area tree consist solely of, and totally of, the page-viewport-areas returned by the fo:page-sequence children of the fo:root. The set of all areas returned by the fo:page-sequence children is properly ordered. (See Section [4.7.1 General Ordering Constraints].) Contents: |
(layout-master-set,declarations?,page-sequence+) |

The following properties apply to this formatting object: Common Usage: The fo:declarations formatting object is used to group global declarations for a stylesheet. Areas: The fo:declarations formatting object does not generate or return any areas. Constraints: None. Contents: (color-profile)+ The fo:declarations flow object may have additional child elements in a non-XSL namespace. Their presence does not, however, change the semantics of the XSL namespace objects and properties. The permitted structure of these non-XSL namespace elements is defined for their namespace(s). Common Usage: The fo:color-profile formatting object is used to declare an ICC Color Profile for a stylesheet. The color-profile is referenced again via the name specified in the "color-profile-name" property. The color-profile is identified by the URI specified in the "src" property value. This URI may identify an internally recognized color-profile or it may point to a ICC Color Profile encoding that should be loaded and interpreted. When the color-profile is referenced (e.g., via the icc-color function[5.10.2 Color Functions]), the following rules are used:
Areas: The fo:color-profile formatting object does not generate or return any areas. Constraints: None. Contents: EMPTY The following properties apply to this formatting object: Common Usage: The fo:page-sequence formatting object is used to specify how to create a (sub-)sequence of pages within a document; for example, a chapter of a report. The content of these pages comes from flow children of the fo:page-sequence. The layout of these pages comes from the fo:page-sequence-master or page-master referenced by the master-name trait on the fo:page-sequence. The sequence of areas returned by each of the flow-object children of the fo:page-sequence are made descendants of the generated pages as described below. Areas: The fo:page-sequence formatting object generates a sequence of viewport/reference pairs, and returns the page-viewport-areas. For each page-reference-area, and each region specified in the page-master used to generate that page-reference-area, the fo:page-sequence object also generates the viewport/reference pair for the occurrence of that region in that page-reference-area, and may generate a before-float-reference-area, footnote-reference-area, and main-reference-area, and one or more normal-sequence-reference-areas. The generation of these further areas is described in the descriptions of the fo:simple-page-master and region-masters. All areas generated by an fo:page-sequence have area-class "xsl-absolute". Constraints: Each page-viewport-area/page-reference-area pair is generated using a page-master that satisfies the constraints of the page-sequence-master identified by the master-name trait of the fo:page-sequence or a page-master that was directly identified by the master-name trait. The region-viewport-area children of such a page-reference-area must correspond to the regions that are children of that page-master. The areas generated by the fo:page-sequence have as their descendants the areas returned by the flows that are children of the fo:page-sequence. The areas returned to the fo:page-sequence by a flow must satisfy four types of constraints:
The default ordering constraint of section [4.7.1 General Ordering Constraints] does not apply to the fo:page-sequence. The default ordering constraints apply to the child fo:flow objects; special ordering constraints apply to the child fo:static-content objects. Contents: |

The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:layout-master-set is a wrapper around all masters used in the document. This includes page-sequence-masters, page-masters, and region-masters. Areas: The fo:layout-master-set formatting object generates no area directly. The masters that are the children of the fo:layout-master-set are used by the fo:page-sequence to generate pages. Constraints: The value of the master-name trait on each child of the fo:layout-master-set must be unique within the set. Contents: |
(simple-page-master|page-sequence-master)+ |
|
Common Usage: The fo:page-sequence-master is used to specify the constraints on and the order in which a given set of page-masters will be used in generating a sequence of pages. Pages are automatically generated when the fo:page-sequence-master is used in formatting an fo:page-sequence. NOTE: Areas: The fo:page-sequence-master formatting object generates no area directly. It is used by the fo:page-sequence formatting object to generate pages. Constraints: The children of the fo:page-sequence-master are a sequence of sub-sequence-specifiers. A page-sequence satisfies the constraint determined by an fo:page-sequence-master if (a) it can be partitioned into sub-sequences of pages that map one-to-one, in order, to the sub-sequence of sub-sequence-specifiers that are the children of the fo:page-sequence-master and, (b) for each sub-sequence of pages, that sub-sequence satisfies the constraints of the corresponding sub-sequence-specifier. Note that the mapping of sub-sequences of the sequence of pages to sub-sequence-specifiers need not be onto; that is, the sequence of sub-sequences of pages can be shorter than the sequence of sub-sequence-specifiers. It is an error if the entire sequence of sub-sequence-specifiers children is exhausted while some areas returned by an fo:flow are not placed. Implementations may recover, if possible, by re-using the sub-sequence-specifier that was last used to generate a page. Contents: |

The following properties apply to this formatting object: 6.4.11 fo:conditional-page-master-reference Common Usage: The fo:conditional-page-master-reference is used to identify a page-master that is to be used when the conditions on its use are satisfied. This allows different page-masters to be used, for example, for even and odd pages, for the first page in a page-sequence, or for blank pages. This usage is typical in chapters of a book or report where the first page has a different layout than the rest of the chapter and the headings and footings on even and odd pages may be different as well. Areas: The fo:conditional-page-master-reference formatting object generates no area directly. It is used by the fo:page-sequence formatting object to generate pages. Constraints: The fo:conditional-page-master-reference has a reference to the fo:simple-page-master which has the same master-name as the master-name trait on the fo:conditional-page-master-reference. There are three traits, page-position,
odd-or-even, and blank-or-not-blank that
specify the
sub-conditions on the use of the referenced page-master. All three
sub-conditions must be The sub-condition corresponding to the page-position
trait is The sub-condition corresponding to the odd-or-even
trait is The sub-condition corresponding to the blank-or-not-blank trait is
NOTE: Contents: EMPTY The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:simple-page-master is used in the generation of pages and specifies the geometry of the page. The page may be subdivided into up to five regions: region-body, region-before, region-after, region-start, and region-end. NOTE: NOTE: Areas: The fo:simple-page-master formatting object generates no area directly. It is used in the generation of pages by an fo:page-sequence. When the fo:simple-page-master is used to generate a page, a viewport/reference pair is generated, consisting of a page-viewport-area and a page-reference-area. The page-viewport-area represents the physical bounds of the output medium. The page-reference-area represents the portion of the page on which content is intended to appear; that is, the area inside the page margins. In addition, when the fo:simple-page-master is used to generate a page, viewport/reference pairs that correspond to the regions that are the children of the fo:simple-page-master are also generated. (See the formatting object specifications for the five regions ([6.4.13 fo:region-body], [6.4.14 fo:region-before], [6.4.15 fo:region-after], [6.4.16 fo:region-start], and [6.4.17 fo:region-end]) for the details on the generation of these areas.)
Region-viewport-areas The spacing between the outer four regions and the fo:region-body is determined by subtracting the relevant extent trait on each outer region from the "margin-x" property on the fo:region-body. Trait Derivation: In version 1.0 of this recommendation, borders and padding are not allowed with a page-reference-area. The remaining traits on the page-reference-area are set according to normal rules for determining the values of traits. Constraints: When a page-master is used in the generation of a page, the height and width of the content-rectangle of the page-viewport-area are determined using the computed values of the "page-height" and "page-width" properties. The traits derived from the margin properties determine the size and position of the content-rectangle of the page-viewport-area. The traits derived from the "margin-top", "margin-bottom", "margin-left" and "margin-right" properties are used to indent the page-reference-area content-rectangle from the corresponding edge of the content-rectangle of the page-viewport-area. Here "top", "bottom", "left" and "right" are determined by the computed values of the "page-height" and "page-width" properties. For sheet media, these values determine the orientation of the sheet; "page-height" is measured from "top" to "bottom". For display media, the display window is always upright; the top of the display screen is "top". NOTE:
The value of the page-number trait on the first page returned by the fo:page-sequence is constrained to equal the value of the initial-page-number trait. The value of the page-number trait on subsequent pages is constrained to be one greater than the value on the immediately preceding page. The format, letter-value, grouping-separator, grouping-size, country, and language traits are used to format the number into a string form, as specified in XSLT, section 7.7.1. This formatted number is used as the value of the fo:page-number flow object. Constraints applicable to regions: There are a number of constraints that apply to all the regions that are specified within a given fo:simple-page-master.
If the block-progression-dimension of the properly stacked region-reference-area is greater than the block-progression-dimension of the region-viewport-area that is its parent, then the constraints on the relationship between the region-viewport-area and the region-reference-area depend on values of the overflow trait on the region-master and the kind of flow assigned to the region. If the flow assigned to the corresponding region is an fo:static-content flow object, then there is no constraint on the block-progression-dimension of the region-reference-area. If the flow assigned to the corresponding region is an fo:flow formatting object, then

The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: Used in constructing a simple-page-master. This region specifies a viewport/reference pair that is located in the "center" of the fo:simple-page-master. The overflow trait controls how much of the underlying region-reference-area is visible; that is, whether the region-reference-area is clipped by its parent region-viewport-area. NOTE: NOTE: The fo:region-body may be also be used to provide multiple columns. When the column-count trait is greater than one, then the region-body will be subdivided into multiple columns. Areas: The fo:region-body formatting object is used to generate one region-viewport-area and one region-reference-area whenever an fo:simple-page-master that has an fo:region-body as a child is used to generate a page. A scrolling mechanism shall be provided, in an implementation-defined manner, if the value of the overflow trait is "scroll". The position and size of the region-viewport-area is specified relative to the content-rectangle of the page-reference-area generated by fo:simple-page-master. The content-rectangle of the region-viewport-area is indented from the content-rectangle of the page-reference-area by the values of the "margin-top", "margin-bottom", "margin-left" and "margin-right" properties. In version 1.0 of this recommendation, the values of the padding and border-width traits must be "0". The region-reference-area generated using an fo:region-body is the child of the region-viewport-area. The reference-orientation trait of the fo:region-body is used to orient the coordinate system of the region-reference-area generated by the fo:region-body relative to the coordinate system of the page-reference-area generated by fo:simple-page-master (and, therefore, relative to the viewport positioned in that latter coordinate system). In addition to the viewport/reference pair, when the region-body is used to generate areas, at least one and up to three additional reference-areas are generated. These reference-areas are the optional before-float-reference-area, the optional footnote-reference-area, and the main-reference-area. The latter reference-area comprises the space left after space is borrowed for the other two reference-areas. The main-reference-area has no padding, border, or space associated with it. NOTE: The main-reference-area has as its children a sequence of span-reference-areas. These are reference-area block-areas with zero border and padding, whose inline-progression-dimension is equal to that of the main-reference-area, and which are normally stacked within the main-reference-area. Each span-reference-area has one or more reference-area children, designated as normal-flow-reference-areas. The number and placement of the children of a span-reference-area depends on the column-count trait of the span-reference-area. In turn, the formatter must generate precisely enough of these span-reference-areas, and so set their column-count traits, that block-areas returned from the fo:flow with a span of "all" are children of span-reference-areas with column-count equal to 1, and block-areas returned from the fo:flow with a span of "none" are children of span-reference-areas with column-count equal to the refined value of the column-count property of the associated region-reference-area. For each span-reference-area, the number N of normal-flow-reference-area children is equal to the value of the column-count trait. It is an error to specify a column-count other than 1 if the "overflow" property has the value "scroll". An implementation may recover by behaving as if "1" had been specified. The inline-progression-dimension of each of these normal-flow-reference-areas is determined by subtracting (N-1) times the column-gap trait from the inline-progression-dimension of the main-reference-area and dividing that result by N. Using "body-in-size" for the name of the inline-progression-dimension of the span-reference-area and "column-in-size" for the name of the size of the normal-flow-reference-areas in the inline-progression-direction, the formula is: column-in-size = (body-in-size - (N - 1)*column-gap)/N The block-progression-dimension of the normal-flow-reference-areas is the same as that of the parent span-reference-area. NOTE: The normal-flow-reference-areas are positioned within the span-reference-area as follows: The first column is positioned with the before-edge and start-edge of its content-rectangle coincident with the before-edge and start-edge of the content-rectangle of the span-reference-area. The content-rectangle of the Jth normal-flow-reference-area child of the span-reference-area is positioned with its before-edge coincident with the before-edge of the content-rectangle of the span-reference-area and with is start-edge at ((J-1)*(column-in-size + column-gap)) in the inline-progression-direction. This results in the end-edge of the content-rectangle of the Nth normal-flow-reference-area being coincident with the end-edge of the content-rectangle of the span-reference-area. NOTE: All areas generated by using the fo:region-body are of area-class "xsl-absolute". Trait Derivation: The reference-orientation of the region-viewport-area is taken from the value of the reference-orientation trait on the region-master which specifies the region. reference-orientation of the region-reference-area is set to "0" and is, therefore, the same as the orientation established by the region-viewport-area. The remaining traits on the region-viewport-area and region-reference-area are set according to normal rules for determining the values of traits. The traits on the span-reference-areas and on the normal-flow-reference-areas are determined, in the same manner as described in [5 Property Refinement / Resolution], from a set of properties where each property has its initial value except for reference-orientation, writing-mode, and display-align that have the value from the fo:region-body. Constraints: The constraints applicable to all regions (see [6.4.12 fo:simple-page-master]) all apply. The inline-progression-dimension of the region-viewport-area is determined by the inline-progression-dimension of the content-rectangle of the page-reference-area minus the values of the start-indent and end-indent traits of the region-master. The start-edge and end-edge of the content-rectangle of the region-viewport-area are determined by the reference-orientation trait on the page-master. The block-progression-dimension of the region-viewport-area is determined by the block-progression-dimension of the content-rectangle for the page-reference-area minus the values of the space-before and space-after traits of the region-master. The before-edge and after-edge of the content-rectangle of the region-viewport-area are determined by the reference-orientation trait on the page-master. The values of the space-before and start-indent traits are used to position the region-viewport-area relative to the before-edge and start-edge of the content-rectangle of the page-reference-area. The constraints on the size and position of the region-reference-area generated using the fo:region-body are covered in the "Constraints applicable to regions" section of [6.4.12 fo:simple-page-master]. Contents: EMPTY The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: Used in constructing a simple-page-master. This region specifies a viewport/reference pair that is located on the "before" side of the page-reference-area. In lr-tb writing-mode, this region corresponds to the header region. The overflow trait controls how much of the underlying region-reference-area is visible; that is, whether the region-reference-area is clipped by its parent region-viewport-area. Areas: The fo:region-before formatting object is used to generate one region-viewport-area and one region-reference-area. In version 1.0 of this recommendation, the values of the padding and border-width traits must be "0". The before-edge of the content-rectangle of this region-viewport-area is positioned coincident with the before-edge of the content-rectangle of the page-reference-area generated using the parent fo:simple-page-master. The block-progression-dimension of the region-viewport-area is determined by the extent trait on the fo:region-before formatting object. The inline-progression-dimension of the region-viewport-area is determined by the
precedence trait on the fo:region-before. If the value
of the precedence trait is The region-reference-area lies on a canvas underneath the region-viewport-area. The reference-orientation trait is used to orient the coordinate system of the region-reference-area relative to the page-reference-area. The size of the region-reference-area depends on the setting of the overflow trait on the region. If the value of that trait is "auto", "hidden", "error-if-overflow", "paginate", or "visible" then the size of the reference-area is the same as the size of the viewport. If the value of the overflow trait is "scroll", the size of the reference-area is equal to the size of the viewport in the inline-progression-direction in the writing-mode for the region and has no constraint in the block-progression-direction (which implies that it grows to hold the distribution of all the content bound to the region). Trait Derivation: The reference-orientation of the region-viewport-area is taken from the value of the reference-orientation trait on the region-master which specifies the region. reference-orientation of the region-reference-area is set to "0" and is, therefore, the same as the orientation established by the region-viewport-area.

Contents: EMPTY The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The content of the fo:flow formatting object is a sequence of flow objects that provides the flowing text content that is distributed into pages. Areas: The fo:flow formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:flow formatting object returns a sequence of areas created by concatenating the sequences of areas returned by each of the children of the fo:flow. The order of concatenation is the same order as the children are ordered under the fo:flow. Constraints: The (implicit) flow-map determines the assignment of the content of the fo:flow to a region. Contents: (%block;)+ In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object: Common Usage: The fo:static-content formatting object holds a sequence or a tree of formatting objects that is to be presented in a single region or repeated in like-named regions on one or more pages in the page-sequence. Its common use is for repeating or running headers and footers. This content is repeated, in its entirety, on every page to which it is assigned. Areas: The fo:static-content formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:static-content formatting object returns the sequence of areas created by concatenating the sequences of areas returned by each of the children of the fo:static-content. The order of concatenation is the same order as the children are ordered under the fo:static-content. Constraints: The (implicit) flow-map determines the assignment of the content of the fo:static-content to a region. The fo:static-content may be processed multiple times and thus the default ordering constraint of section [4.7.1 General Ordering Constraints] does not apply to the fo:static-content. Instead, it must satisfy the constraint on a per-page basis. Specifically, if P is a page-reference-area C is an area-class, and S is the set of all descendants of P of area-class C returned to the fo:static-content descendant, then S must be properly-ordered. Contents: (%block;)+ The following properties apply to this formatting object: Common Usage: The fo:title formatting object is used to associate a title with a given document. This title may be used by an interactive User Agent to identify the document. For example, the content of the fo:title can be formatted and displayed in a "title" window or in a "tool tip". Areas: This formatting object returns the sequence of areas returned by the flow children of this formatting object. Constraints: The sequence of returned areas must be the concatenation of the sub-sequences of areas returned by each of the flow children of the fo:title formatting object in the order in which the children occur. Contents: (#PCDATA|%inline;)* An fo:title is not permitted to have an fo:float, fo:footnote or fo:marker as a descendant. Additionally, an fo:title is not permitted to have as a descendant an fo:block-container that generates an absolutely positioned area. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
6.5 Block-level Formatting ObjectsThe fo:block formatting object is used for formatting paragraphs, titles, figure captions, table titles, etc. The following example illustrates the usage of the fo:block in a style sheet. 6.5.1.1 Example |
6.5.1.1.1 Chapter and Section Titles, ParagraphsInput sample: |
<doc>
<chapter>
<title>Chapter title</title>
<section>
<title>First section title</title>
<paragraph>Section one's first paragraph.</paragraph>
<paragraph>Section one's second paragraph.</paragraph>
</section>
<section>
<title>Second section title</title>
<paragraph>Section two's only paragraph.</paragraph>
</section>
</chapter>
</doc>
|
|
In this example the chapter title appears at the top of the page (its "space-before" is discarded). Space between chapter title and first section title is (8pt,8pt,8pt): the chapter title's "space-after" has a higher precedence than the section title's "space-before" (which takes on the initial value of zero), so the latter is discarded. Space between the first section title and section one's first paragraph is (6pt,6pt,6pt): the section title's "space-after" has higher precedence than the paragraph's "space-before", so the latter is discarded. Space between the two paragraphs is (6pt,8pt,10pt): the "space-after" the first paragraph is discarded because its precedence is equal to that of the "space-before" the next paragraph, and the optimum of the "space-after" of the first paragraph is greater than the optimum of the "space-before" of the second paragraph. Space between the second paragraph of the first section and the title of the second section is (12pt,12pt,12pt): the "space-after" the paragraph is discarded because its precedence is equal to that of the "space-before" of the section title, and the optimum of the "space-after" of the paragraph is less than the optimum of the "space-before" of the section title. The indent on the first line of the first paragraph in section one and the only paragraph in section two is zero; the indent on the first line of the second paragraph in section one is 2pc.

Common Usage: The fo:block formatting object is commonly used for formatting paragraphs, titles, headlines, figure and table captions, etc. Areas: The fo:block formatting object generates one or more normal block-areas. The fo:block returns these areas, any page-level-out-of-line areas, and any reference-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:block. The fo:block also generates zero or more line-areas as children of the normal block-areas it returns, in accordance with [4.7.2 Line-building]. Trait Derivation: The .minimum, .optimum, and .maximum components of the half-leading trait are set to 1/2 the difference of the computed value of the line-height property and the computed value of the sum of the text-altitude and text-depth properties. The .precedence and .conditionality components are copied from the line-height property. NOTE: Constraints: No area may have more than one normal child area returned by the same fo:block formatting object. The children of each normal area generated by an fo:block must satisfy the constraints specified in [4.7.2 Line-building]. In addition the constraints imposed by the traits derived from the properties applicable to this formatting object must be satisfied. The geometric constraints are rigorously defined in [4 Area Model]. Contents: |
(#PCDATA|%inline;|%block;)* |
|
In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children, optionally followed by an fo:initial-property-set. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:block-container flow object is used to generate a block-level reference-area, typically containing text blocks with a different writing-mode. In addition, it can also be used with a different reference-orientation to rotate its content. NOTE: Areas: The fo:block-container formatting object generates one or more viewport/reference pairs. The fo:block-container returns these areas and any page-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:block-container. Trait Derivation: The areas generated by the fo:block-container formatting object have a value of "true" for the is-reference-area. The size of the viewport-area and the reference-area has to be fixed in the inline-progression-direction. It must be specified unless the inline-progression-direction is parallel to the inline-progression-direction of the reference-area into which the areas generated by this flow object are placed. Constraints: The children of each reference-area generated by an fo:block-container formatting object must be normal block-areas returned by the children of the fo:block-container, must be properly stacked, and must be properly ordered. Any reference-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:block-container are handled as described in [6.10.2 fo:float]. Contents: (%block;)+ In addition an fo:block-container that does not generate an absolutely positioned area may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object:

Common Usage: The fo:bidi-override formatting object is used when the Unicode-bidi algorithm fails. It forces a string of text to be written in a specific direction. Areas: The fo:bidi-override formatting object generates one or more normal inline-areas. The fo:bidi-override returns these areas, any page-level-out-of-line areas, and any reference-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:bidi-override. Trait Derivation: The direction traits are derived from the "writing-mode", "direction", and "unicode-bidi" properties as described in [5.5.3 Writing-mode and Direction Properties]. Constraints: No area may have more than one normal child area returned by the same fo:bidi-override formatting object. The children of each normal area returned by an fo:bidi-override must satisfy the constraints specified in [4.7.3 Inline-building]. Contents: |
(#PCDATA|%inline;|%block;)* |
|
In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. An fo:bidi-override that is a descendant of an fo:leader or of an fo:inline child of an fo:footnote may not have block-level children, unless it has a nearer ancestor that is an fo:inline-container. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:character flow object represents a character that is mapped to a glyph for presentation. It is an atomic unit to the formatter. When the result tree is interpreted as a tree of formatting objects, a character in the result tree is treated as if it were an empty element of type fo:character with a character attribute equal to the Unicode representation of the character. The semantics of an "auto" value for character properties, which is typically their initial value, are based on the Unicode codepoint. Overrides may be specified in an implementation-specific manner. NOTE: Unicode Special-use tag characters on Plane 14 need not be supported. NOTE: Areas: The fo:character formatting object generates and returns a single normal inline-area. Constraints: The dimensions of the area is determined by the font metrics for the glyph. When formatting an fo:character with a "treat-as-wordspace" value of "true", the User Agent may use a different method for determining the inline-progression-dimension of the area. NOTE: Contents: EMPTY The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:initial-property-set auxiliary formatting object specifies formatting properties for the first line of an fo:block. NOTE: Areas: The fo:initial-property-set formatting object does not generate or return any areas. It simply holds a set of traits that are applicable to the first line-area of the area that has a value of "true" for the is-first trait and that was generated by the parent fo:block of the fo:initial-property-set. Trait Derivation: The traits on the fo:initial-property-set are taken into account as traits constraining the first line as if the child inline formatting objects of the fo:block, or parts of them in the case of a line-break, that were used in formatting the first line were enclosed by an fo:wrapper, as a direct child of the fo:block, with those traits. Constraints: None. Contents: EMPTY The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:external-graphic flow object is used for a graphic where the graphics data resides outside of the fo:element tree. Areas: The fo:external-graphic formatting object generates and returns one inline-level viewport-area and one reference-area containing the external graphic. The inline-level area uses the large-allocation-rectangle as defined in [4.2.3 Geometric Definitions]. NOTE: Constraints: The viewport's size is determined by the height and width traits. For values of "auto", the content size of the graphic is used. The content size of a graphic is determined by taking the intrinsic size of the graphic and scaling as specified by the content-height, content-width, and scaling traits. If one of the content-height or content-width is not "auto", the same scale factor (as calculated from the specified non-auto value) is applied equally to both directions. Once scaled, the reference-area is aligned with respect to the viewport-area using the text-align and display-align traits. If it is too large for the viewport-area, the graphic is aligned as if it would fit and the overflow trait controls the clipping, scroll bars, etc. In the case when the graphics format does not specify an intrinsic size of the graphic the size is determined in an implementation-defined manner. NOTE: Contents: EMPTY The following properties apply to this formatting object:
6.6.6 fo:instream-foreign-object Common Usage: The fo:instream-foreign-object flow object is used for an inline graphic or other "generic" object where the object data resides as descendants of the fo:instream-foreign-object, typically as an XML element subtree in a non-XSL namespace. NOTE: Areas: The fo:instream-foreign-object formatting object generates and returns one inline viewport-area and one reference-area containing the instream-foreign-object. The inline-level area uses the large-allocation-rectangle as defined in [4.2.3 Geometric Definitions]. Constraints: The viewport's size is determined by the height and width traits. For values of "auto", the content size of the instream foreign object is used. The content size of an instream-foreign-object is determined by taking the intrinsic size of the object and scaling as specified by the content-height, content-width, and scaling traits. If one of the content-height or content-width is not "auto", the same scale factor (as calculated from the specified non-auto value) is applied equally to both directions. Once scaled, the reference-area is aligned with respect to the viewport-area using the text-align and display-align traits. If it is too large for the viewport-area, the instream-foreign-object is aligned as if it would fit and the overflow trait controls the clipping, scroll bars, etc. In the case when the instream-foreign-object does not specify an intrinsic size of the object, the size is determined in an implementation defined manner. Contents: The fo:instream-foreign-object flow object has a child from a non-XSL namespace. The permitted structure of this child is that defined for that namespace. The fo:instream-foreign-object flow object may have additional attributes in the non-XSL namespace. These, as well as the xsl defined properties, are made available to the processor of the content of the flow object. Their semantics is defined by that namespace. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:inline formatting object is commonly used for formatting a portion of text with a background or enclosing it in a border. Areas: The fo:inline formatting object generates one or more normal inline-areas. The fo:inline returns these areas, any page-level-out-of-line areas, and any reference-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:inline. Constraints: No area may have more than one normal child area returned by the same fo:inline formatting object. The children of each normal area returned by an fo:inline must satisfy the constraints specified in [4.7.3 Inline-building]. In addition the constraints imposed by the traits derived from the properties applicable to this formatting object must be satisfied. The geometric constraints are rigorously defined in [4 Area Model]. Contents: |
(#PCDATA|%inline;|%block;)* |
|
In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. An fo:inline that is a child of an fo:footnote may not have block-level children. An fo:inline that is a descendant an fo:leader or of the fo:inline child of an fo:footnote may not have block-level children, unless it has a nearer ancestor that is an fo:inline-container. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:inline-container flow object is used to generate an inline reference-area, typically containing text blocks with a different writing-mode. NOTE: Areas: The fo:inline-container formatting object generates one or more viewport/reference pairs. The viewport-areas generated by the fo:inline-container are normal inline-level areas that use the large-allocation-rectangle as defined in [4.2.3 Geometric Definitions]. The fo:inline-container returns these areas and any page-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:inline-container. Trait Derivation: The areas generated by the fo:inline-container formatting object have a value of "true" for the is-reference-area. The size of the viewport-area and the reference-area has to be fixed in the inline-progression-direction. It must be specified unless the inline-progression-direction is parallel to the inline-progression-direction of the reference-area into which the areas generated by this flow object are placed. The values in the baseline-table of this object are calculated as follows:
Constraints: No area may have more than one normal child area returned by the same fo:inline-container formatting object. The children of each reference-area generated by an fo:inline-container formatting object must be normal block-areas returned by the children of the fo:inline-container, must be properly stacked, and must be properly ordered. Any reference-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:inline-container are handled as described in [6.10.2 fo:float]. Contents: (%block;)+ In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:leader formatting object is often used:
Areas: The fo:leader formatting object generates and returns a single normal inline-area. Trait Derivation: If the value of the leader-pattern is "use-content" the block-progression-dimension of the content-rectangle is determined in the same manner as for line-areas; otherwise it is determined by the rule-thickness trait. Constraints: If the leader's minimum length is too long to place in the line-area, the leader will begin a new line. If it is too long to be placed in a line by itself, it will overflow the line and potentially overflow the reference-area in accordance with that container's overflow trait. The fo:leader formatting object can have any inline formatting objects and characters as its children, except that fo:leaders may not be nested. Its children are ignored unless the value of the leader-pattern trait is "use-content". NOTE: The inline-area generated by the fo:leader has a dimension in the inline-progression-direction which shall be at least the leader-length.minimum and at most the leader-length.maximum. For lines-areas that have been specified to be justified, the justified line-area must honor the leader-alignment trait of any inline-areas generated by fo:leaders. If the value of the leader-pattern trait is "dots" or "use-content", the following constraint applies: The inline-area generated by the fo:leader has as its children the areas returned by children of the fo:leader, or obtained by formatting the pattern specified in the leader-pattern trait, repeated an integral number of times. If the width of even a single repetition is larger than the dimension of the inline-area in the inline-progression-direction, the inline-area shall be filled with blank space. The space-start and space-end of the child areas is set to account for the constraints specified in the leader-pattern-width and leader-alignment traits. NOTE: NOTE: NOTE: Contents: (#PCDATA|%inline;)* The content must not contain an fo:leader, fo:inline-container, fo:block-container, fo:float, fo:footnote, or fo:marker either as a direct child or as a descendant. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:page-number formatting object is used to obtain an inline-area whose content is the page-number for the page on which the inline-area is placed. Areas: The fo:page-number formatting object generates and returns a single normal inline-area. Constraints: The child areas of this inline-area are the same as the result of formatting a result-tree fragment consisting of fo:character flow objects; one for each character in the page-number string and with only the "character" property specified. The page-number string is obtained by converting the page-number for the page on which the inline-area is placed in accordance with the number to string conversion properties specified on the ancestor fo:page-sequence. Contents: EMPTY The following properties apply to this formatting object:
6.6.11 fo:page-number-citation Common Usage: The fo:page-number-citation is used to reference the page-number for the page containing the first normal area returned by the cited formatting object. NOTE: Areas: The fo:page-number-citation formatting object generates and returns a single normal inline-area. Constraints: The cited page-number is the number of the page containing, as a descendant, the first normal area returned by the formatting object with an id trait matching the ref-id trait of the fo:page-number-citation (the referenced formatting object). The cited page-number string is obtained by converting the cited page-number in accordance with the number to string conversion properties specified on the ancestor fo:page-sequence of the referenced formatting object. The child areas of the generated inline-area are the same as the result of formatting a result-tree fragment consisting of fo:character flow objects; one for each character in the cited page-number string and with only the "character" property specified. Contents: EMPTY The following properties apply to this formatting object:
6.7 Formatting Objects for TablesThere are nine formatting objects used to construct tables: fo:table-and-caption, fo:table, fo:table-column, fo:table-caption, fo:table-header, fo:table-footer, fo:table-body, fo:table-row, and fo:table-cell. The result tree structure is shown below.
6.7.1.1 Examples |
|
Common Usage: The fo:table-and-caption flow object is used for formatting a table together with its caption. NOTE: NOTE: Areas: The fo:table-and-caption formatting object generates one or more normal block-areas. The fo:table-and-caption returns these areas, any page-level-out-of-line areas, and any reference-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:table-and-caption. Constraints: No area may have more than one normal child area returned by the same fo:table-and-caption formatting object. The children of the areas generated by the fo:table-and-caption are one or two areas; one for the table caption and one for the table itself. These are positioned relative to each other as specified by the caption-side trait. They are placed relative to the content-rectangle of the generated area as specified by the text-align trait. Contents: (table-caption?,table) In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:table flow object is used for formatting the tabular material of a table. The fo:table flow object and its child flow objects model the visual layout of a table in a "row primary" manner. A complete table may be seen as consisting of a grid of rows and columns where each cell occupies one or more grid units in the row-progression-direction and column-progression-direction. The table content is divided into a header (optional), footer (optional), and one or more bodies. Properties specify if the headers and footers should be repeated at a break in the table. Each of these parts occupies one or more rows in the table grid. Areas: The fo:table formatting object generates and returns one or more normal block-areas. In addition the fo:table returns any page-level-out-of-line areas, and any reference-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:table. The areas generated and returned by the fo:table formatting object have as children:
These areas have a z-index controlling the rendering order determined in accordance with 17.5.1 of the CSS2 specification. NOTE: Trait Derivation: The areas generated and returned by the fo:table formatting object have a value of "true" for the is-reference-area. The column-progression-direction and row-progression-direction are determined by the writing-mode trait. Columns use the inline-progression-direction, and rows use the block-progression-direction. The method for deriving the border traits for a table is specified by the "border-collapse" property. If the value of the "border-collapse" property is "separate" the border is composed of two components. The first, which is placed with the inside edge coincident with the outermost table grid boundary line, has the width of half the value for the "border-separation" property. It is filled in accordance with the "background" property of the fo:table. Outside the outermost table grid boundary line is placed, for each side of the table, a border based on a border specified on the table. If the value of the "border-collapse" property is "collapse" the border is determined, for each segment, at the cell level. NOTE: Constraints: No area may have more than one normal child area returned by the same fo:table formatting object. The inline-progression-dimension of the content-rectangle of the table is the sum of the inline-progression-dimensions of the columns in the table grid. The method used to determine these inline-progression-dimensions is governed by the values of the table-layout and the inline-progression-dimension traits in the following manner:
The automatic table layout and fixed table layout is defined in 17.5.2 of the CSS2 specification. The method for determining the block-progression-dimension of the table is governed by the block-progression-dimension trait. NOTE: NOTE: NOTE: Contents: |
(table-column*,table-header?,table-footer?,table-body+) |

In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:table-column auxiliary formatting object specifies characteristics applicable to table cells that have the same column and span. The most important property is the "column-width" property. Areas: The fo:table-column formatting object does not generate or return any areas. It holds a set of traits that provide constraints on the column widths and a specification of some presentation characteristics, such as background which affects the areas generated by the fo:table (see [6.7.3 fo:table]). Inheritable properties may also be specified on the fo:table-column. These can be referenced by the from-table-column() function in an expression. Constraints: None. Contents: EMPTY The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:table-caption formatting object is used to contain block-level formatting objects containing the caption for the table only when using the fo:table-and-caption. Areas: The fo:table-caption formatting object generates one or more normal reference-areas. The fo:table-caption returns these reference-areas and any page-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:table-caption. Trait Derivation: The areas generated by the fo:table-caption formatting object have a value of "true" for the is-reference-area. Constraints: For the case when the value of the caption-side trait is "before" or "after" the inline-progression-dimension of the content-rectangle of the generated reference-area is equal to the inline-progression-dimension of the content-rectangle of the reference-area that encloses it. When the value is "start" or "end" the inline-progression-dimension of the generated reference-area is constrained by the value of the width trait. When the value is "top", "bottom", "left", or "right" the value is mapped in the same way as for corresponding properties (see [5.3 Computing the Values of Corresponding Properties]) and the property is then treated as if the corresponding value had been specified. If the caption is to be positioned before the table, the areas generated by the fo:table-caption shall be placed in the area tree as though the fo:table-caption had a "keep-with-next" property with value "always". If the caption is to be positioned after the table, the areas generated by the fo:table-caption shall be placed in the area tree as though the fo:table-caption had a "keep-with-previous" property with value "always". No area may have more than one normal child area returned by the same fo:table-caption formatting object. The children of each normal area returned by an fo:table-caption formatting object must be normal block-areas returned by the children of the fo:table-caption, must be properly stacked, and must be properly ordered. Any reference-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:table-caption are handled as described in [6.10.2 fo:float]. Contents: (%block;)+ In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:table-header formatting object is used to contain the content of the table header. Areas: The fo:table-header formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:table-header formatting object returns the sequence of areas created by concatenating the sequences of areas returned by each of the children of the fo:table-header. Constraints: The order of concatenation of the sequences of areas returned by the children of the fo:table-header is the same order as the children are ordered under the fo:table-header. Contents: |
(table-row+|table-cell+) |
|
The fo:table-header has fo:table-row (one or more) as its children, or alternatively fo:table-cell (one or more). In the latter case cells are grouped into rows using the starts-row and ends-row properties. In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:table-footer formatting object is used to contain the content of the table footer. Areas: The fo:table-footer formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:table-footer formatting object returns the sequence of areas created by concatenating the sequences of areas returned by each of the children of the fo:table-footer. Constraints: The order of concatenation of the sequences of areas returned by the children of the fo:table-footer is the same order as the children are ordered under the fo:table-footer. Contents: |
(table-row+|table-cell+) |
|
The fo:table-footer has fo:table-row (one or more) as its children, or alternatively fo:table-cell (one or more). In the latter case cells are grouped into rows using the starts-row and ends-row properties. In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:table-body formatting object is used to contain the content of the table body. Areas: The fo:table-body formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:table-body formatting object returns the sequence of areas created by concatenating the sequences of areas returned by each of the children of the fo:table-body. Constraints: The order of concatenation of the sequences of areas returned by the children of the fo:table-body is the same order as the children are ordered under the fo:table-body. Contents: |
(table-row+|table-cell+) |
|
The fo:table-body has fo:table-row (one or more) as its children, or alternatively fo:table-cell (one or more). In the latter case cells are grouped into rows using the starts-row and ends-row properties. In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:table-row formatting object is used to group table-cells into rows; all table-cells in a table-row start in the same geometric row on the table grid. Areas: The fo:table-row formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:table-row formatting object returns the sequence of areas created by concatenating the sequences of areas returned by each of the children of the fo:table-row. The fo:table-row holds a specification of some presentation characteristics, such as background which affects the areas generated by the fo:table (see [6.7.3 fo:table]). Constraints: The order of concatenation of the sequences of areas returned by the children of the fo:table-row is the same order as the children are ordered under the fo:table-row. The method for determining the height of the row in the grid is governed by the row-height trait. Contents: (table-cell+) The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:table-cell formatting object is used to group content to be placed in a table cell. The "starts-row" and "ends-row" properties can be used when the input data does not have elements containing the cells in each row, but instead, for example, each row starts at elements of a particular type. Areas: The fo:table-cell formatting object generates one or more normal reference-areas. The fo:table-cell returns these reference-areas and any page-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:table-cell. Trait Derivation: The areas generated by the fo:table-cell formatting object have a value of "true" for the is-reference-area. The method for deriving the border for a cell is specified by the border-collapse trait. If the value of the border-collapse trait is "separate" the border is composed of two components. The first, which is placed with the outside edge coincident with the table grid boundary line, has the width of half the value for the border-separation trait. It is filled in accordance with the background trait of the fo:table. Inside this border is placed, for each side of the cell, a border based on a border specified on the cell or inherited. If the value of the border-collapse trait is "collapse" the border for each side of the cell is determined by, for each segment of a border, selecting, from all border specifications for that segment, the border that has the highest precedence. It is an error if there are two such borders that have the same precedence but are not identical. Each border segment is placed centered on the table grid boundary line. Constraints: A table-cell occupies one or more grid units in the row-progression-direction and column-progression-direction. The content-rectangle of the cell is the size of the portion of the grid the cell occupies minus, for each of the four sides:
The method for determining the block-progression-dimension of the cell in the grid is governed by the row-height trait. No area may have more than one normal child area returned by the same fo:table-cell formatting object. The children of each normal area returned by an fo:table-cell formatting object must be normal block-areas returned by the children of the fo:table-cell, must be properly stacked, and must be properly ordered. Any reference-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:table-cell are handled as described in [6.10.2 fo:float]. Contents: (%block;)+ In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
6.8 Formatting Objects for ListsThere are four formatting objects used to construct lists: fo:list-block, fo:list-item, fo:list-item-label, and fo:list-item-body.
Tree representation of the formatting Objects for Lists. The fo:list-block has the role of containing the complete list and of specifying values used for the list geometry in the inline-progression-direction (see details below). The children of the fo:list-block are one or more fo:list-item, each containing a pair of fo:list-item-label and fo:list-item-body. The fo:list-item has the role of containing each item in a list. The fo:list-item-label has the role of containing the content, block-level formatting objects, of the label for the list-item; typically an fo:block containing a number, a dingbat character, or a term. The fo:list-item-body has the role of containing the content, block-level formatting objects, of the body of the list-item; typically one or more fo:block. The placement, in the block-progression-direction, of the label with respect to the body is made in accordance with the "vertical-align" property of the fo:list-item.
The specification of the list geometry in the inline-progression-direction is achieved by:
The start-indent of the list-item-label and end-indent of the list-item-body, if desired, are typically specified as a length. 6.8.1.1 Examples |

The "dtdd.xsl" stylesheet may be customized in the following ways:
In the stylesheet using the "dtdd.xsl" stylesheet change the Common Usage: The fo:list-block flow object is used to format a list. Areas: The fo:list-block formatting object generates one or more normal block-areas. The fo:list-block returns these areas, any page-level-out-of-line areas, and any reference-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:list-block. Constraints: No area may have more than one normal child area returned by the same fo:list-block formatting object. The children of each normal area returned by an fo:list-block formatting object must be normal block-areas returned by the children of the fo:list-block, must be properly stacked, and must be properly ordered. Contents: (list-item+) In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:list-item formatting object contains the label and the body of an item in a list. Areas: The fo:list-item formatting object generates one or more normal block-areas. The fo:list-item returns these areas, any page-level-out-of-line areas, and any reference-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:list-item. Constraints: No area may have more than one normal child area returned by the same fo:list-item formatting object. The children of each normal area returned by an fo:list-block formatting object must be normal block-areas returned by the fo:list-item-label and the fo:list-item-body flow objects and must be properly ordered. Those returned by the fo:list-item-label must be properly stacked and those returned by the fo:list-item-body must be properly stacked. The children of each normal area returned by an fo:list-block formatting object returned by the fo:list-item-label and fo:list-item-body objects are positioned in the block-progression-direction with respect to each other according to the relative-align trait. In the inline-progression-direction these areas are positioned in the usual manner for properly stacked areas. It is an error if the content-rectangles of the areas overlap. NOTE: Contents: |

In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:list-item-body formatting object contains the content of the body of a list-item. Areas: The fo:list-item-body formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:list-item-body formatting object returns the sequence of areas created by concatenating the sequences of areas returned by each of the children of the fo:list-item-body. Constraints: The order of concatenation of the sequences of areas returned by the children of the fo:list-item-body is the same order as the children are ordered under the fo:list-item-body. Contents: (%block;)+ In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object: Common Usage: The fo:list-item-label formatting object contains the content of the label of a list-item, typically used to either enumerate, identify, or adorn the list-item's body. Areas: The fo:list-item-label formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:list-item-label formatting object returns the sequence of areas created by concatenating the sequences of areas returned by each of the children of the fo:list-item-label. Constraints: The order of concatenation of the sequences of areas returned by the children of the fo:list-item-label is the same order as the children are ordered under the fo:list-item-label. Contents: (%block;)+ In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object: 6.9 Dynamic Effects: Link and Multi Formatting ObjectsDynamic effects, whereby user actions (including User Agent state) can influence the behavior and/or representation of portions of a document, can be achieved through the use of the formatting objects included in this section:
The switching between subtrees is achieved by using the following three formatting objects: fo:multi-switch, fo:multi-case, and fo:multi-toggle. The result tree structure is shown below.
The role of the fo:multi-switch is to wrap fo:multi-case formatting objects, each containing a subtree. Each subtree is given a name on the fo:multi-case formatting object. Activating, for example implemented as clicking on, an fo:multi-toggle causes a named subtree, the previous, the next, or "any" subtree to be displayed; controlled by the "switch-to" property. For "any", an implementation would typically present a list of choices each labeled using the "case-title" property of the fo:multi-case. The initial subtree displayed is controlled by the "starting-state" property on the fo:multi-case. Switching between different property values is achieved by using the fo:multi-properties and fo:multi-property-set formatting objects, and the merge-property-values() function. For example, an fo:multi-property-set can be used to specify various properties for each of the possible values of the active-state property, and merge-property-values() can be used to apply them on a given formatting object. 6.9.1.1 Examples |
|
In this example the chapter and section titles are extracted into a table of contents placed at the front of the result. The chapter titles are preceded by an icon indicating either collapsed or expanded state. The section titles are only shown in the expanded state. Furthermore, there are links from the titles in the table of contents to the corresponding titles in the body of the document. The two states are achieved by, for each chapter title, using an fo:multi-switch with a fo:multi-case for each state. The icon is contained in an fo:multi-toggle with the appropriate fo:multi-case "switch-to" property to select the other state. The links in the table of contents are achieved by adding a unique id on the title text in the body of the document and wrapping the title text in the table of contents in an fo:basic-link referring to that id.

Common Usage: The fo:basic-link is used for representing the start resource of a simple one-directional single-target link. The object allows for traversal to the destination resource, typically by clicking on any of the containing areas. Areas: The fo:basic-link formatting object generates one or more normal inline-areas. The fo:basic-link returns these areas, any page-level-out-of-line areas, and any reference-level-out-of-line areas returned by the children of the fo:basic-link. NOTE: Constraints: No area may have more than one normal child area returned by the same fo:basic-link formatting object. The children of each normal area returned by an fo:basic-link must satisfy the constraints specified in [4.7.3 Inline-building]. Contents: |
(#PCDATA|%inline;|%block;)* |
|
In addition this formatting object may have a sequence of zero or more fo:markers as its initial children. The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:multi-switch wraps the specification of alternative sub-trees of formatting objects (each sub-tree being within an fo:multi-case), and controls the switching (activated via fo:multi-toggle) from one alternative to another. The direct children of an fo:multi-switch object are fo:multi-case objects. Only a single fo:multi-case may be visible at a single time. The user may switch between the available multi-cases. Each fo:multi-case may contain one or more fo:multi-toggle objects, which controls the fo:multi-case switching of the fo:multi-switch. NOTE: Areas: The fo:multi-switch formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:multi-switch formatting object returns the sequence of areas returned by the currently visible fo:multi-case. If there is no currently visible fo:multi-case no areas are returned. Trait Derivation: The currently-visible-multi-case trait has as its initial value a reference to the first fo:multi-case child that has a value of "show" of the starting-state trait. If there is no such child, it has a value indicating that there is no currently visible fo:multi-case. When an fo:multi-toggle is actuated, its closest ancestral fo:multi-switch's currently-visible-multi-case trait value changes to refer to the fo:multi-case selected by the "switch-to" property value of the fo:multi-toggle. Once the currently-visible-multi-case trait gets a value indicating that there is no currently visible fo:multi-case, it becomes impossible to actuate an fo:multi-toggle in this fo:multi-switch. Constraints: The order of the sequence of areas returned by the fo:multi-switch is the same as the order of the areas returned by the currently visible fo:multi-case. Contents: (multi-case+) The following properties apply to this formatting object: Common Usage: The fo:multi-case is used to contain (within an fo:multi-switch) each alternative sub-tree of formatting objects among which the parent fo:multi-switch will choose one to show and will hide the rest. Areas: The fo:multi-case formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:multi-case formatting object returns the sequence of areas created by concatenating the sequences of areas returned by each of the children of the fo:multi-case. Constraints: The order of concatenation of the sequences of areas returned by the children of the fo:multi-case is the same order as the children are ordered under the fo:multi-case. Contents: |
(#PCDATA|%inline;|%block;)* |
|
An fo:multi-case is only permitted to have children that would be permitted to be children of the parent of the fo:multi-switch that is the parent of the fo:multi-case, except that an fo:multi-case may not contain fo:marker children. In particular, it can contain fo:multi-toggle objects (at any depth), which controls the fo:multi-case switching. This restriction applies recursively. NOTE: The following properties apply to this formatting object:
Common Usage: The fo:multi-toggle is typically used to establish an area that when actuated (for example implemented as "clicked"), has the effect of switching from one fo:multi-case to another. The "switch-to" property value of the fo:multi-toggle typically matches the "case-name" property value of the fo:multi-case to switch to. Areas: The fo:multi-toggle formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:multi-toggle formatting object returns the sequence of areas created by concatenating the sequences of areas returned by each of the children of the fo:multi-toggle. Each of the areas returned by the fo:multi-toggle has a switch-to trait with the same value as on the returning fo:multi-toggle. Constraints: The order of concatenation of the sequences of areas returned by the children of the fo:multi-toggle is the same order as the children are ordered under the fo:multi-toggle. Activating an area returned by an fo:multi-toggle causes a change to the value of the currently-visible-multi-case of the closest ancestor fo:multi-switch. (See [7.21.11 "switch-to"] for how the switch-to value selects an fo:multi-case.) Contents: |
(#PCDATA|%inline;|%block;)* |
|
An fo:multi-toggle is only permitted as a descendant of an fo:multi-case. The following properties apply to this formatting object: Common Usage: The fo:multi-properties is used to switch between two or more property sets that are associated with a given portion of content. NOTE: The direct children of an fo:multi-properties formatting object is an ordered set of fo:multi-property-set formatting objects followed by a single fo:wrapper formatting object. The properties, specified on the fo:wrapper, that have been specified with a value of "merge-property-values()" will take a value that is a merger of the value on the fo:multi-properties and the specified values on the fo:multi-property-set formatting objects that apply. Areas: The fo:multi-properties formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:multi-properties formatting object returns the sequence of areas created by concatenating the sequences of areas returned by each of the children of the fo:multi-properties. Constraints: The order of concatenation of the sequences of areas returned by the children of the fo:multi-properties is the same order as the children are ordered under the fo:multi-properties. Contents: |

The properties that should take a merged value shall be specified with a value of "merge-property-values()". This function, when applied on an fo:wrapper that is a direct child of an fo:multi-properties, merges the applicable property definitions on the fo:multi-property-set siblings. The following properties apply to this formatting object: Common Usage: The fo:multi-property-set auxiliary formatting object is used to specify an alternative set of formatting properties that can be used to provide an alternate presentation of the children flow objects of the fo:wrapper child of the parent of this fo:multi-property-set. Areas: The fo:multi-property-set formatting object does not generate or return any areas. It simply holds a set of traits that may be accessed by expressions. Constraints: None. Contents: EMPTY The following properties apply to this formatting object: 6.10 Out-of-Line Formatting Objects6.10.1.1 FloatsThe fo:float formatting object is used for two distinct purposes. First, so that during the normal placement of content, some related content is formatted into a separate area at the beginning of a page where it is available to be read without immediately intruding on the reader. The areas generated by this kind of fo:float are called before-floats. An fo:float is specified to generate before-floats if it has a "float" property value of "before". The constraints on placing before-floats on a page are described in the [6.10.1.3 Conditional Sub-Regions] section of this introduction and in the description of the fo:float formatting object. Second, the fo:float formatting object is used when an area is intended to float to one side, with normal content flowing alongside the floated area. The areas generated by this kind of fo:float are called side-floats. A side-float is always made a child of the nearest ancestor reference-area. The edge of the reference-area towards which the side-float floats is controlled by the value of the "float" property. Flowing normal content flowing alongside side-floats is realized by increasing the start-intrusion-adjustment or the end-intrusion-adjustment of normal child areas of the parent reference-area of the side-float. The "clear" property applies to any block-level formatting object. If the value of this property for a particular formatting object is any value other than "none", then the areas generated by the block will be positioned to ensure that their border-rectangles do not overlap the allocation-rectangles of the applicable side-floats as determined by the "clear" property value. 6.10.1.2 FootnotesThe fo:footnote formatting object is used to generate both a footnote and its citation. The fo:footnote has two children, which are both required to be present. The first child is an fo:inline formatting object, which is formatted to produce the footnote citation. The second child is an fo:footnote-body formatting object which generates the content (or body) of the footnote. The actual areas generated by the descendants of the fo:footnote-body formatting object are determined by the formatting objects that comprise the descendant subtree. For example, the footnote could be formatted with a label and an indented body by using the fo:list-block formatting object within the fo:footnote-body. 6.10.1.3 Conditional Sub-RegionsThe region-body has two conditional sub-regions which implicitly specify corresponding reference-areas called before-float-reference-area and footnote-reference-area. These reference-areas are conditionally generated as children of the region-reference-area. The before-float-reference-area is generated only if the page contains one or more areas with area-class "xsl-before-float". The footnote-reference-area is generated only if the page contains one or more areas with area-class "xsl-footnote". The conditionally generated areas borrow space in the block-progression-dimension (this is "height" when the writing-mode is "lr-tb") within the region-reference-area, at the expense of the main-reference-area. Whether or not a conditionally generated area is actually generated depends, additionally, on whether there is sufficient space left in the main-reference-area. There may be limits on how much space conditionally generated areas can borrow from the region-reference-area. It is left to the user agent to decide these limits. The block-progression-dimension of the main-reference-area is set equal to the block-progression-dimension of the allocation-rectangle of the region-reference-area minus the sum of the sizes in the block-progression-direction of the allocation-rectangles of the conditionally generated reference-areas that were actually generated. The main-reference-area is positioned to immediately follow the after-edge of the allocation-rectangle of the before-float-reference-area. This positions the after-edge of the main-reference-area to coincide with the before-edge of the allocation-rectangle of the footnote-reference-area. In addition to the constraints normally determined by the region-reference-area, the inline-progression-dimension (this is "width" when the writing-mode is "lr-tb") of a conditionally generated reference-area is constrained to match the inline-progression-dimension of the main-reference-area. Each conditionally generated reference-area may additionally contain a sequence of areas used to separate the reference-area from the main-reference-area. The sequence of areas is the sequence returned by formatting a fo:static-content specified in the page-sequence that is being used to format the page. If there is a fo:static-content in a page-sequence whose "region-name" property value is "xsl-before-float-separator", then the areas returned by formatting the fo:static-content are inserted in the proper order as the last children of a before-float-reference-area that is generated using the same page-master, provided the main-reference-area on the page is not empty. If there is an fo:static-content whose "region-name" property value is "xsl-footnote-separator", then the areas returned by formatting the fo:static-content are inserted in the proper order as the initial children of a footnote-reference-area that is generated using the same page-master. An interactive user agent may choose to create "hot links" to the footnotes from the footnote-citation, or create "hot links" to the before-floats from an implicit citation, instead of realizing conditional sub-regions. The generation of areas with area-class "xsl-before-float" or "xsl-footnote" is specified in the descriptions of the formatting objects that initially return areas with those area-classes. Common Usage: The fo:float formatting object is typically used either to cause an image to be positioned in a separate area at the beginning of a page, or to cause an image to be positioned to one side, with normal content flowing around and along-side the image. Areas: The fo:float generates an optional single area with area-class "xsl-anchor", and one or more block-areas that all share the same area-class, which is either "xsl-before-float", "xsl-side-float" or "xsl-normal" as specified by the "float" property. (An xsl:float generates normal block-areas if its "float" property value is "none".) Areas with area-class "xsl-side-float" are reference areas. An area with area-class "xsl-before-float" is placed as a child of a before-float-reference-area. The optional area with area-class "xsl-anchor" is not generated if the "float" property value is "none", or if, due to an error as described in the constraints section, the fo:float shall be formatted as though its "float" property was "none". Otherwise, the area with area-class "xsl-anchor" shall be generated. The area with area-class "xsl-anchor" has no children, and is an inline-area, except where this would violate the constraints that (a.) any area's children must be either block-areas or inline-areas, but not a mixture, and (b.) the children of a line-area may not consist only of anchor areas. In the case where an inline-area would violate these constraints, the fo:float must instead generate a block-area. Constraints: The normal inline-area generated by the fo:float shall be placed in the area tree as though the fo:float had a "keep-with-previous" property with value "always". The inline-area has a length of zero for both the inline-progression-dimension and block-progression-dimension. The term anchor-area is used here to mean the normal inline-area generated by the fo:float. No area may have more than one child block-area returned by the same fo:float formatting object. Areas with area-class "xsl-before-float" must be properly ordered within the area tree relative to other areas with the same area-class. The padding-, border-, and content-rectangles of the block-areas generated by fo:float all coincide. That is, the padding and border are zero at all edges of the area. The following constraints apply to fo:float formatting objects that generate areas with area-class "xsl-before-float":
The following constraints apply to fo:float formatting objects that generate areas with area-class "xsl-side-float":
Contents: (%block;)+ An fo:float is not permitted to have an fo:float, fo:footnote or fo:marker as a descendant. Additionally, an fo:float is not permitted to have as a descendant an fo:block-container that generates an absolutely positioned area. The following properties apply to this formatting object: Common Usage: The fo:footnote is typically used to produce footnote-citations within the region-body of a page and the corresponding footnote in a separate area nearer the after-edge of the page. Areas: The fo:footnote formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:footnote formatting object returns the areas generated and returned by its child fo:inline formatting object. Additionally the fo:footnote formatting object returns the block-areas with area class "xsl-footnote" generated by its fo:footnote-body child. An area with area-class "xsl-footnote" is placed as a child of a footnote-reference-area. Constraints: The term anchor-area is defined to mean the last area that is generated and returned by the fo:inline child of the fo:footnote. A block-area returned by the fo:footnote is only permitted as a descendant from a footnote-reference-area that is (a) descendant from a "region-reference-area" generated using the region-master for the region to which the flow that has the fo:footnote as a descendant is assigned, and (b) is descendant from the same page that contains the anchor-area, or from a page following the page that contains the anchor-area. The second block-area and any additional block-areas returned by an fo:footnote must be placed on the immediately subsequent pages to the page containing the first block-area returned by the fo:foonote, before any other content is placed. If a subsequent page does not contain a region-body, the user agent must use the region-master of the last page that did contain a region-body to hold the additional block-areas. It is an error if the fo:footnote occurs as a descendant of a flow that is not assigned to a region-body, or of an fo:block-container that generates absolutely positioned areas. In either case, the block-areas generated by the fo:footnote-body child of the fo:footnote shall be returned to the parent of the fo:footnote and placed in the area tree as though they were normal block-level areas.

An fo:footnote is not permitted to have an fo:float, fo:footnote, or fo:marker as a descendant. Additionally, an fo:footnote is not permitted to have as a descendant an fo:block-container that generates an absolutely positioned area. Common Usage: The fo:footnote-body is used to generate the footnote content. Areas: The fo:footnote-body generates and returns one or more block-level areas with area-class "xsl-footnote". Constraints: The fo:footnote-body is only permitted as a child of an fo:footnote. No area may have more than one child block-area returned by the same fo:footnote-body formatting object. Areas with area-class "xsl-footnote" must be properly ordered within the area tree relative to other areas with the same area-class. Contents: (%block;)+ |

Common Usage: The fo:wrapper formatting object is used to specify inherited properties for a group of formatting objects. Areas: The fo:wrapper formatting object does not generate any areas. The fo:wrapper formatting object returns the sequence of areas created by concatenating the sequences of areas returned by each of the children of the fo:wrapper. Trait Derivation: Except for "id", the fo:wrapper has no properties that are directly used by it. However, it does serve as a carrier to hold inheritable properties that are utilized by its children. Constraints: The order of concatenation of the sequences of areas returned by the children of the fo:wrapper is the same order as the children are ordered under the fo:wrapper. Contents: |

An fo:wrapper is only permitted to have children that would be permitted to be children of the parent of the fo:wrapper, with two exceptions:
This restriction applies recursively. NOTE: The following properties apply to this formatting object: Common Usage: The fo:marker is used in conjunction with fo:retrieve-marker to produce running headers or footers. Typical examples include:
The fo:marker has to be an initial child of its parent formatting object. Areas: The fo:marker does not directly produce any area. Its children may be retrieved and formatted from within an fo:static-content, using an fo:retrieve-marker whose "retrieve-class-name" property value is the same as the "marker-class-name" property value of this fo:marker. Constraints: An fo:marker is only permitted as the descendant of an fo:flow. Note: Property values set on an fo:marker or its ancestors will not be inherited by the children of the fo:marker when they are retrieved by an fo:retrieve-marker. It is an error if two or more fo:markers that share the same parent have the same "marker-class-name" property value. Contents: |

An fo:marker may contain any formatting objects that are permitted as a replacement of any fo:retrieve-marker that retrieves the fo:marker's children. The following properties apply to this formatting object: Common Usage: The fo:retrieve-marker is used in conjunction with fo:marker to produce running headers or footers. Typical examples include:
Areas: The fo:retrieve-marker does not directly generate any area. It is (conceptually) replaced by the children of the fo:marker that it retrieves. Trait Derivation: The properties and traits specified on the ancestors of the fo:retrieve-marker are taken into account when formatting the children of the retrieved fo:marker as if the children had the same ancestors as the fo:retrieve-marker. Constraints: An fo:retrieve-marker is only permitted as the descendant of an fo:static-content. The fo:retrieve-marker specifies that the children of a selected fo:marker shall be formatted as though they replaced the fo:retrieve-marker in the formatting tree. The properties of the fo:retrieve-marker impose a hierarchy of preference on the areas of the area tree. Each fo:marker is conceptually attached to each normal area returned by the fo:marker's parent formatting object. Additionally, an fo:marker is conceptually attached to each non-normal area that is directly generated by the fo:marker's parent formatting object. Conversely, areas generated by any descendant of an fo:flow may have zero or more fo:marker's conceptually attached. The fo:marker whose children are retrieved is the one that is (conceptually) attached to the area that is at the top of this hierarchy. Every area in the hierarchy is considered preferential to, or "better" than, any area below it in the hierarchy. When comparing two areas to determine which one is better, the terms "first" and "last" refer to the pre-order traversal order of the area tree. The term "containing page" is used here to mean the page that contains the first area generated or returned by the children of the retrieved fo:marker. An area that has an attached fo:marker whose "marker-class-name" property value is the same as the "retrieve-class-name" property value of the fo:retrieve-marker is defined to be a qualifying area. Only qualifying areas have positions in the hierarchy. A qualifying area within a page is better than any qualifying area within a preceding page, except that areas do not have a position in the hierarchy if they are within pages that follow the containing page. If the "retrieve-boundary" property has a value of "page-sequence", then an area does not have a position in the hierarchy if it is on a page from a page-sequence preceding the page-sequence of the containing page. If the "retrieve-boundary" property has a value of "page", then an area does not have a position in the hierarchy if it is not on the containing page. If the value of the "retrieve-position" property is "first-starting-within-page", then the first qualifying area in the containing page whose "is-first" trait has a value of "true" is better than any other area. If there is no such area, then the first qualifying area in the containing page is better than any other area. If the value of the "retrieve-position" property is "first-including-carryover", then the first qualifying area in the containing page is better than any other area. If the value of the "retrieve-position" property is "last-starting-within-page", then the last qualifying area in the containing page whose "is-first" trait has a value of "true" is better than any other area. If there is no such area, then the last qualifying area in the containing page is better than any other area. If the value of the "retrieve-position" property is "last-ending-within-page", then the last qualifying area in the containing page whose "is-last" trait has a value of "true" is better than any other area. If there is no such area, then the last qualifying area in the containing page is better than any other area. If the hierarchy of areas is empty, no formatting objects are retrieved.
