Re: [docbook-apps] XEP and .PNG images created with Gnome's DIA

[Alan Ezust <alan.ezust@gmail.com>]

I tried that, and then I had the problem where it was too small in the
HTML version but just right in the PDF version, or else it was too big
in the PDF and just right in the HTML version.

There is definitely a bug in either XEP or DIA, or the combination of
using them together (because XEP has no problems with .png files
created with umbrello, and FOP has no problems with .png files created
by dia).

It is not working the same way, but correct way ;-)

You can either set correct dimensions (or resolution) inside your
graphics file using graphic editor like Gimp, or specify scaling using
scale attribute on imagedate element.
