Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: List Rendering of XSL-FO Problem

[Bob Stayton <bobs at sco dot COM>]

If you process Norm's test/book2.xml, in the
output for the section "More Complex List Item Content" you
can see that normal <para> elements in a <listitem> context
are ok, but <formalpara> elements have that space above them.
I think Norm's fo stylesheet file fo/list.xsl is missing a
template for "listitem/formalpara[1]" the way it has one
for "listitem/para[1]".  So it is formatting the <formalpara>
the same as outside the listitem context, which is to
provide some space above.
