Can't Preserve Space When Convert Docx To XSL-FO

[qq955166]

Hi Guys,
I am using docx4j-3.2.1.jar.

In my test word file, I can see

Code: Select all

<w:p><w:r><w:t xml:space="preserve">1         Example 3a (bold)         1</w:t></w:r></w:p>

however, in my xsl-fo file,

Code: Select all

<block font-size="10.5pt" line-height="100%" space-after="0in" space-before="0in" text-align="justify"><inline><inline font-family="Times New Roman">1         Example 3a (bold)         1</inline></inline></block>

The attribute white-space-treatment="preserve" is not produced. and therefore, my pdf output does not have white space neither.

Does anyone know how to deal with this?

Thank you!

Please note the w:t attribute doesn't quite do what I think you think it does; see http://webapp.docx4java.org/OnlineDemo/ ... dML/t.html

That said, a glance at the code does suggest there is still an issue here.

Assuming you're using XSLT approach, this is related to:

Hi Jason, first of all, I very appreciate your reply, thank you.

I read your link about w:t attribute, but how do I create a significant whitespace?

and I don't get what should be changed in setAttribute(Element el, String fontName), could you advise me more in detail?

Thanks!
