Afaik, the upcoming version of epcEdit will have support for RNG.

happens in HTML when you align an image to the left or to the right, and
the surrounding text wraps around it, like:

Which XSLT processor are you using?
Which FO formatter are you using?

The adjustColumnWidths function is an extension function Norm wrote.  It is
not implemented in XSL, but relies on different processor-specific
mechanisms.  If you're using Saxon, for example, you need to include
docbook-xsl-1.60.1/extensions/saxon65.jar in your java CLASSPATH.  If you're
using Xalan, you need to put xalan2.jar in your CLASSPATH.  If you're using
XSLTProc, you should not be using extensions.  Norm is working on writing
these extension functions in Python (at least the adjustColumnWidths
function), but that isn't done yet.

I have found that for HTML output, losing the adjustColumnWidths function is
a bad thing, but both Xep and FOP have good enough support for FO tables
that they don't need it.

Subject: DOCBOOK-APPS: Tables do not appear in fo


Hello,

When I have this option turned on in my docbook customization layer:

<!-- Use Extensions -->
<xsl:param name="use.extensions" select="'1'"/>

tables don't appear in the XSLFO file and I read:

"No adjustColumnWidths function available."

When I turn extensions off, they're back!

What's the problem?

You'll need to place the image inside of a <fo:float/> element.

Jeff,

Thanks for your snappy reply. 

I should have been clearer in my question - I actually meant, whether
such behavior is supported by the docbook xsl style sheets for fo,
because that's where I can't get it to work.

I'm using FOP - is that the sinner here, or is it not supported at the
style sheet level?

Oh.  In that case, I think you can quite legitimately point fingers at both
DocBook and FOP.  I just checked FOP's website, and they do not suppor the
<fo:float/> formatting object.  However, there's also nothing in the DocBook
DTD or in Norm's stylesheets to output an <fo:float/>.  It certainly seems
that with your particular tool chain, floats are at the moment impossible.

If you were to switch FO formatters, I could envision a stylesheet
customization along the lines of

<xsl:template match="inlinemediaobject[@role='floatleft']">
 <fo:float float="left">
  <xsl:apply-imports/>
 </fo:float>
</xsl:template>

that would work.  For now, though, there's nothing in DocBook to support
floating images. (It might make a nice RFE, though.)

If your document uses entities which declared in external DTD
(like DocBook), you should add
--loaddtd

Actually, the DocBook Technical Committee approved
RFE 615473 on 19 November 2002 to extend 'float' in
the DTD.  In 4.2, there is just a 'float = yes|no'
attribute on figure.  We added a 'floatstyle' attribute to figure,
example, table, and equation, of type CDATA with the
documentation saying that it is expected to be a
keyword that a stylesheet could act upon.
Once that change is released in a new DTD version,
the stylesheets can be modified to work with it.

Apparently I need to pay more attention to the latest versions of the DTD.
;)  (I really need to upgrade ours some day -- still using 3.something.)

This is a LONGSTANDING bug in the dsl stylesheets, dating back to before they moved to sourceforge. When the tex backend bumps a formal object (figure, eqn, etc.) to the start of a new page, the object itself starts at the bottom of, say page 7, but the figure and its title actually appear at the top of page 8. The result is that hyperlinks to those objects work fine in both html and pdf. But the page number listed as page 7 in the TOC. The mandrake customization gets around this by linking LOT entries to the object titles rather than to the objects themselves.

I solved my page reference problem in the same way. I made a few minor changes to common/dbl1en.dsl and now I can get correct page references simply by xref to a title or anchor.

I'll do that and send you my customizations. I'm sure that they are crude, but they solve my problems.

BTW, thanks for your work on dsssl 1.78. It is much appreciated.

It looks like a stylesheet issue, though I have no idea at what point in the chain it could be fixed. The dsl stylesheet writes the ascii code for the degree symbol into the tex file. TeX understands the symbol and prints it, but stupidly, with too much space between the symbol and the next character. TeX actually has a smart degree symbol, \textdegree. Currently I run my tex through a sed script to change all the ascii degrees into textdegrees. It looks just like it should, but I have no idea how to massage the stylesheets into outputting \textdegree for &deg;

I will include an example in the one I am creating for the "page number" problem.

I don't really see how this could be a stylesheet issue.  It's either
an OpenJade TeX backend issue or a JadeTeX issue.
