Hi Alain,
thank you. Your idea was the final hint.

My solution looks like this:

    <xsl:template match="p[not(node())]" priority="1">
        <fo:block>
            <fo:leader/>
        </fo:block>
    </xsl:template>
   
    <xsl:template match="p">
        <fo:block>
            <xsl:apply-templates/>
        </fo:block>
    </xsl:template>

Ken, the <p> implementation of the Antenna House HTML2FO converter does 
not work like in HTML Empty paragraphs are converted to empty blocks 
which collapse.

Thanks for your help
Jan
