Hi Ted
Ignore my earlier reply for the moment, as I just realized I was a bit

The most important question is: which FOP version are you using?
I sincerely hope you're not stuck on 0.20.x, since it is notoriously
non-compliant in terms of respecting preserved linefeeds and white-
space...

Option 1. will definitely not produce the intended effect, but both 2.
and 3. definitely work in FOP 0.95.
As a small correction: the property "whitespace-treatment" does not
exist. It should be specified as "white-space-treatment". FOP 0.95
will exit with a ValidationException (unless you're using relaxed
validation, which is not recommended)
If you are using 0.20.x and cannot upgrade, the effect of an empty
line can normally be generated like so:
<fo:block
space-after.optimum="1.2em"
space-after.conditionality="retain"
space-after.precedence="force" />
HTH!
