Subject: Fop, Landscape Chapters, & psmi
Hi, Have got a few *large* tables that need to be processed in landscape format, but in using FOP the reference-orientation attribute is not supported. It can produce separate page sequences in order to create landscape pages if you swap the page height and page width attributes, which I've done and which works nicely. After searching, I found the psmi information for producing separate page sequences, but it is limited to being able to produce things in sections under chapters - not whole chapters (or appendices) themselves. While I can put the tables in a section, I then end up with a page that has the chapter title (still in portrait layout), followed by a new page in landscape with the content. And I don't really want to have to introduce a section into a chapter when the sole purpose of that chapter (or appendix) is to contain that table. Secondly, I'm not able to call the change in the layout through orient="land" on the tables themselves, as the table rendering dies in fop and displays just a single blank page (in landscape, at least) if the table is more than one page long. This forces me to shove it in a section (where the swapped page height and width attributes cause no problems with the table layout rendering), with the same result as above. So - can anyone suggest how to modify the psmi transformations to allow a <chapter> or <appendix> to be rotated *in total*? Cheers, Janeene.
