Hypenation in narrow columns (fo stylesheet)
Hi All

FOP generated PDF with FOP 0.95 or newer do not hyphenate properly
when  transforming the enclosed DocBook file containing tables with
narrow column.

When translating the enclosed file with the plain fo/docbook.xsl
(DocBook XSL 1.75.2) and subsequently with FOP 0.20.5 and FOP 0.95 (or
newer), there are significat difference in the output, both in the
header and body cells.

When analyzing the generated fo code - hyphenation attributes seem to
be set according to the standard. The only thing missing seems to be
keep-together.within-column="always", which should be set for each
cell according to section 3.10 of
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/faq.html, however adding this
attribute to each fo-table-cell of the table have no effect.

I have checked all relevant parameters and extension of the DocBook
stylesheet, but nothing seems to work.

Regards

Jens
