XSL-FO document (fotemplate)

Top  Previous  Next

FO Templates are used by Crash Magic to define printed reports. All documents are XML and use the W3C standard of XSL-FO to describe the page.

 

There are special Insert tags in the document that describe places that information is going to filled in by Crash Magic. This allows the same template to be used for a number of different reports.

 

 

Insert Tag:

 

Name: A descriptive name of the region. This is used in the layout editor to select a region.

ForUseIn: Tells crash magic what kind of data can be inserted in place of this tag. Current values are: FO and ASCII.

Height: Optional. Is applied to the report element to ensure the correct size is met, and to prevent flowing to the next page.

Width: Optional. Is applied to the report element to ensure the correct size is met, and to prevent flowing to the next page.

 

Warning! Insert tags must be in the namespace: http://www.pdmagic.com/pdEl/1.0
