Re: [docbook-apps] displaying full-page graphics inside a chapter?

Hi Robert,
I'm not clear on what you mean by "full-page".  Do you mean for the graphic 
to extend into the page margins to the edge of the paper, or just take up 
the full width of the text area within the margins?  When you say "push the 
image over to where a paragraph should begin" suggests that you have the 
'body.start.indent' param set and your content is indented (except for 
titles).  If you want the graphic's left edge to start at the left margin 
like the titles, then put it inside an informalfigure and add a pgwide="1" 
attribute to that element.
