In fo:table, in case of too large text in fo:cell, text is written on multiple lines. ---------------- |text |large | | |text | ---------------- But, if there is no space in text, text is not broken and overflow the column. ---------------- |text |large_te|xt ---------------- Is there a method to hide part of text that overflows? Or is there a method to break/wrap the text to the next line?

Thats the common problem(as far as i know) The standard provides the property overflow="hidden" to clip,but it doesn't work in apache FOP. Two options check 1.Check how to use <fo:block language="en" hyphenate="true" .... it will add an hyphen at the end of the table cell and continue on next line. 2.write a "Template to write texts for a given number of lines and characters" for exmaples max 4 lines with 35 characters per lines. Its possible, i did it, give a try, if not post back, i will post the code here.
