FOP连字xsl fo

Question

I would like to use the attribute hyphenate="true" on my tag <subtitle> , and set hyphenation="false" on the <italic> elements it may contain. The problem is that I can use the hyphenation only on fo:block and fo:character . Could someone give me an advice?

This is an example of my xml:

<subtitle type="subtitles">
    Some text that should have the hyphenation true 
    (<italic>This one shoud have the hyphenation false</italic>).
</subtitle>

Answer 1

hyphenate is an inherited property (see https://www.w3.org/TR/xsl11/#hyphenate ). The text in your XSL-FO is treated as if it was a sequence of fo:character FOs (see https://www.w3.org/TR/xsl11/#fo_character ).

Just put hyphenate="false" on the fo:inline for italic and it will have effect on the notional fo:character FOs making up the text.
