Hi Michèle,

For problem 1 the only workaround I know of is to rewrite the text so that the page number be part of the line where it occurs, but even then, it is not perfect. It may be that the latest stylesheets in cvs solves it, though I have not tried it yet.

Thanks for replying!

This is basically a showstopper bug for me right now, we can't release pdfs to be printed with mangled cross reference text. And I can't rewrite the text, because it applies to loads of different guides, in loads of languages. Is this a fop bug, or a stylesheet problem? It doesn't seem to occur with all cross references, only a few.

For problem 3, no solution apart from no margin at all.

There *must* be a solution to this (the problem is that with double.sided the page numbers on the left hand side aren't aligned with the left hand margin), because if I import the 1.68 stylesheets, rather than 1.69.1 or snapshot, it doesn't happen. I don't have enough experience to figure out what the problem is though.
