Hi All,

        I'm using Apache FOP and I keep getting:

; SystemID: file:///C:/TestProjects/ApacheFOP/./xml/xslt/PedigreeFO.xsl; 
Line#: 12; Column#: 100
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: 
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: -2
        at 
org.apache.xalan.transformer.TransformerImpl.executeChildTemplates(TransformerImpl.java:2379)
        at 
org.apache.xalan.templates.ElemLiteralResult.execute(ElemLiteralResult.java:681)

        etc.

        The XSL I'm using is:

                    <fo:block font-size="8pt">
                        <fo:table table-layout="fixed" border-style=
"solid">
                            <fo:table-column column-width="2cm" />
                            <fo:table-column column-width="2cm" />
                            <fo:table-column column-width="2cm" />
                            <fo:table-column column-width="2cm" />
                            <fo:table-column column-width="2cm" />

                    </fo:block>

        I'm trying to output PDF.

        One other similar topic suggested that I use the column-number 
attribute. Is this, strictly speaking, necessary? Or is it just a case of 
it is needed to work?

        Thanks for any and all comments/suggestions.
