XSL-FO leader Object

Back

Definition and Usage

The <fo:leader> object can be used used to:

  • generate "." to separate titles from page numbers in table of contents
  • create input fields in forms
  • create horizontal rules

If the leader's length is too long to fit in the area, the leader will begin a new line.

The children of the <fo:leader> object are ignored unless the leader-pattern property is "use-content". If the <fo:leader> has no children and the leader-pattern property is "use-content", the leader is filled with blank space.

If the leader should fill all space on a line, the max length of the leader should be at least as large as the width of the column.
