Subject: DOCBOOK-APPS: Space-after issues with DSSSL/OpenJade
Hi All, Using DSSSL/OpenJade/pdfJadeTex, I am having problems with the amount of space that appears after block elements. For example, I have DocBook XML in the form: <para>Some text here.</para> <itemizedlist> <listitem> <para>Some text</para> <procedure> <step> <para>Text of the step</para> </step> </procedure> </listitem> </itemizedlist> <para>Final paragraph text.</para> The problem is that when output as PDF, there is an excessively large space between the end of the <itemizedlist> and the final paragraph. I assume that this is because all the "space-after" attributes of all the elements that are closed at this point (the <para> inside the <step>, the <step>, the <procedure>, the <listitem>, and the <itemizedlist>) all get added together. It seems to me that what should happen is that the space between the end of the list and the start of the final paragraph should be calculated on the basis of the largest of the spacing values, not the sum of them. I can't see that this is very easy as part of the style sheet - one would have to look back at all the preceding elements in the hierarchy to find the best value to use. Any thoughts, anyone? Best wishes, Nick.
