RE: [docbook-apps] olinks to appendixes displays italic

Thanks for your help, Bob. It turned out that I wasn’t regenerating the target database. Now that I am, everything works fine.

Regards,

Jeff

Hi Jeff,

I'm sorry to report that part of what you were looking at was a wild goose chase. The title.xref template is obsolete. It is called by the template named xref.t.subst, which is also obsolete and commented out in the stylesheets. I think they were left behind in case they needed to be restored after changes were made, but then were forgotten. I'll clean them up.

The template that controls the italics is that with mode="insert.title.markup". Your template matching on "chapter|appendix" in that mode should do it for both chapter and appendix. It is used for both titles and xrefs, but its behavior can be modified by using the template param named "purpose", which will be 'xref' for cross references, including olinks.

I tested your templates in a simple customization layer and they produce the same output for olinks to both chapter and appendix: no italic, bold, and color for the whole string. I did not get italic for the appendix olink.

Are you regenerating the target data before each build (set collect.xref.targets="yes")? The inline formats used in olink text are actually stored in the target data set (e.g., in target.db), so you won't see updates if that file is not updated.

What version of DocBook XSL are you using?

Subject: [docbook-apps] olinks to appendixes displays italic

Versions: DocBook 4.5, FOP 0.93

In FO output, I want olinks to appendixes to NOT display italic. Olinks Even though I customized the following templates, olinks to appendixes always display italic. What am I doing wrong? Seems like all I should need to modify is the insert.olink.docname.markup mode template, but that doesn’t work. How can I make the olink to an appendix display normal font (like it does for olinks to chapters)?
