RE: [docbook-apps] Glossary - inline glossterm

[Jeff Beal <jeff.beal@ansys.com>]

The formatting for the inline <glossterm> is controlled by the templated
named "glossterm" in the file {fo|html}/inline.xsl.  You will need to change
this template to format glossterms the way you want them.

In looking at these templates, it looks like the HTML template should
*always* generate italic text, but the FO template only generates italic
text in some situations, depending on the various glossary-processing
parameters.  If you're using FO, the following customization might do the
trick (both Italic and a quasi-arrow)

<xsl:template match="glossterm">
   <fo:inline font-style="italic">
      <xsl:text>--&gt;</xsl:text>
      <xsl:call-template name="glossterm"/>
   </fo:inline>
</xsl:template>

Hi!

Using the stylesheets (1.60.1) the inline <glossterm> should generate an
italic output.
This doesn't happen but the internal link to the glossentry is created
properly.
How can i get the italic inline output?

Is there a simple way to mark the inline glossterm in another way (than
italic) in the generated output, 
e.g. by the use of a symbol (like an arrow)?

Thanks 
Patrick
