RE: [docbook] Support for PDF fragment identifiers in DocBook 5

[Jeff Powanda <jpowanda@vocera.com>]

Thanks, Bob. That explains it. I was using version 1.73.2 of the stylesheets with my DocBook 4.5 content, but I'm using 1.76.1 now for DocBook 5 content.

Regards,
Jeff

Hi Jeff,
Did you mention what version of DocBook XSL you are using?  The dest= syntax was added in 1.76.1, but did not appear in earlier versions.  I just tried it with both versions of 1.76.1, and both produced the dest= syntax.  Did you change the XSL version when you went to DocBook 5?

I took a look at the same link to an external PDF in separate FO files generated from 
DocBook 4.5 and DocBook 5.0. In the <fo:basic-link> element, here's what the 
external-destination attribute looks like in the FO file generated using DocBook 5:

external-destination="url(filename.pdf#dest=id)"

Here's how the external-destination attribute looks in the FO file generated using 
DocBook 4.5:

external-destination="filename.pdf#id"

The only difference in my toolchain is the XSLT processor. For DocBook 4.5, I'm using 
Saxon 6.5.3. For DocBook 5, I'm using Saxon 6.5.5.

Regards,
Jeff

Hi Jeff,
There should be no difference between the ns and non-ns stylesheet versions.  That 
behavior is toggled by the stylesheet param 'insert.olink.pdf.frag', which is set to 
zero by default in both stylesheet versions.  Something else must account for the 
change in behavior.

Can you check the .fo files for 4.5 and 5 to see if the #fragment identifiers are 
present in the FO output?

When I upgraded from DocBook 4.5 to 5, I was pleased to discover that PDF fragment 
identifiers now work as they should. When I click a link to another PDF, it opens the 
referenced PDF and jumps to that location.

I was surprised at this because I'm using the same version of FOP (a snapshot build of 
FOP 1.0) that I used with DocBook 4.5.

Do the DocBook 5 stylesheets handle fragment identifiers differently than they did in 
DocBook 4.5? Just trying to understand why this works now.
