RE: Printing the last revision number on the title page

[Wood Nick <Nick.Wood@ncia.nato.int>]

Hi Ekaterina,

Here is an extract of the customised version of titlepage.xsl, I use:

<!-- Front Page to use with Logo -->

<xsl:template name="book.titlepage.recto">
  <fo:block space-before='0mm' space-after='0mm'
		padding='0mm' margin='0mm'>
  <fo:table
  	inline-progression-dimension="100%" table-layout="fixed"
	margin='0mm' padding='0mm'>
  <fo:table-column column-width="100%"/>
  <fo:table-body text-align="center"
				 display-align="before">

<fo:table-row height='35mm'><fo:table-cell border-style='none' padding-top='4mm' padding-bottom='2mm'
	  padding-right='20mm' padding-left='25mm'>
	  <fo:block font-family='sans-serif' font-weight='bold' font-size='14pt'
	  color='rgb(0,36,125)'
	  	text-align='right'>
		<xsl:text>Release </xsl:text>
		<xsl:value-of select="ancestor-or-self::node()[self::book]/bookinfo/revhistory/revision[last()]/revnumber"/>
	  </fo:block>
  </fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>
</xsl:template>

I have a number of fo:table-row entries, which I have had to omit, so you may have to play around with the positioning, or most probably someone has a better solution.

Regards

Nick

Subject: [docbook-apps] Printing the last revision number on the title page

Hello,

These lines in one of the recent answers in this group:

            <fo:block text-align="left" font-family="sans-serif" font-size="8pt">
                  Revision: <xsl:apply-templates mode="book.titlepage.recto.mode" select="bookinfo/revhistory/revision[1]/revnumber"/>
            </fo:block>

made me also think about printing the last revision number on the title page in PDF output, but I cannot easily adapt this example to my situation.

As I understand, this example shows the .xsl title page customization. Could you please give me a hint how to implement the same from the very beginning: .xml title page customization, some corresponding element in docbook file itself, some customization layer modification?

Thank you very much!
