Gleb Galkin commented on JBDS-178:
----------------------------------

Well, I've investigated the problem with line breaking. The conclusion is:
1) If you want to add line-break before or after block element, paragraph for example, you should use element <para> with appropriate role: <para role="space-after"> or <para role="space-before">
2) If you want to add line-break anywhere, you should use processing-instruction <?lb?>

In order to make this features available you should add some code in appropriate files:
1) in *.css: 

.space-before{
	margin-top:20px;
}
.space-after{
	margin-top:20px;
}
.lb{
	line-height:20px;
}

2) in *.xsl file for html version:
<xsl:template match="processing-instruction('lb')">
        <br class="lb"/>
</xsl:template>

3) in *.xsl file for PDF version:
<!--#### Line breaking ####-->  
<xsl:template match="para[@role = 'space-before']">
  <fo:block space-before="14.5pt">
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </fo:block>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="para[@role = 'space-after']">
  <fo:block space-after="14.5pt">
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </fo:block>
</xsl:template>   
<xsl:template match="processing-instruction('lb')">
  <fo:block space-before="14.5pt">
    <xsl:text />
  </fo:block>
</xsl:template>

Note, that the size of line-break is the same in all formats (1pt = 1.38px)
