Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] Re: Embed a PDF document into DocBook book?
This solution is working well, except when I'm using a 2-column layout
for the rest of the document. I tried forcing
<fo:region-body margin-bottom="0"
margin-top="0"
column-gap="{$column.gap.back}"
column-count="1">
But it still doesn't appear to work. When I look at the fo file, the
column-count for the region-body in the page-master is still set to 2.
As a result, the PDF only scales to the width of the first column!
Is there some other way I need to override these params?
<xsl:param name="column.count.body" select="2"/>
<xsl:param name="column.count.back" select="2"/>
Thanks and best regards,
