HTML Tidy on FO files


I wish to remove all unnecessary linebreaks inside <fo:block> elements. I've
been using HTML Tidy for this:

char-encoding: latin1
input-xml: yes
numeric-entities: yes
output-xml: yes
wrap: 0
write-back: no

The problem is that Tidy insists on adding a new line for each new element.

XML:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<doc>
  <p>No
linebreaks
<b>here</b>, please.</p>
</doc>

FO (after Saxon/Xalan):

...
<fo:block>No
linebreaks
<fo:inline font-weight="bold">here</fo:inline>, please.</fo:block>
...

FO (after HTML Tidy):
...
<fo:block>No linebreaks
<fo:inline>here</fo:inline>
, please.</fo:block>
...

Output:

No linebreaks here , please.
                  ^
Is there any solution for this?

Gustaf
