Re: [docbook-apps] round tripped

[Steve Ball <Steve.Ball@explain.com.au>]

Hi Aaron,

Firstly regarding images; the round-tripping stylesheets do not  
currently support embedded images, though I am planning on adding  
this support.  There are two problems with embedded images, both of  
which require an extension to XSLT to solve.  Problem 1 is writing  
the image data into a separate file (needs exsl:document).  Problem 2  
is decoding the base64 encoding of the image data.

Secondly regarding styles; the round-tripping stylesheets, as  
supplied, only understand the styles given in the template document.   
It is possible to support any styles, but that would require some  
kind of customisation layer.  I am planning on providing a  
customisation abstraction, but no schedule on that at this stage.

HTHs,
Steve Ball
