Hello *!

I have downloaded the latest versions of xmlroff and
pangopdf and tried it out.  No problems with the building
of the packages.

This is with PDFlib; nothing wrong with gnome-print,
I just didn't have time to download all the dependencies.

Unfortunately I have to find out the user-unfriendly way
that xmlroff doesn't seem to support CSS-style shorthand
properties, at least for "margin".  If I attempt to use it,
I get a barrage of libfo critical errors and xmlroff then
either aborts or segfaults.  When I separate it to the various
"margin-*" properties xmlroff works fine[*]. (This may be
the answer to a previous post by Giuseppe Greco.)

Whoever is in charge (I guess Tony Graham?) may want to
document this.  Anyway thanks for writing xmlroff.

[*] This is of course with a very simple FO document I created,
nothing from big stylesheets :)  I'm still learning FO right now.
