Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: Paper Size & Headers

[Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com>]

/ Holger Rauch <Holger.Rauch@heitec.de> was heard to say:
| 1. How is the default paper size determined? Do I have to override an
| existing style sheet or does it depend on the lang attribute? (This

The stylesheet parameter %paper-type%.

| applies to both the HTML and the print variant of the modular docbook
| style sheets. I have seen many lines chooped off when printing an HTML
| document using Netscape's print command.) 

That's got nothing to do with the stylesheets. There's no concept
of paper size in HTML.

| 2. I would like customize the page headers and footers in the following
| way:
| 
| For odd numbered pages:
| 
| Header:
| 
| company_logo           author's name                    Revision number
|                       document title      complete date in national format

You can't do that. Jade limits headers and footers to a single line.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
