Hi,
we provide our documentation in several languages. So far I’ve
managed almost everything to display correctly for the Chinese, Japanese and
Kyrillic output (for PDF and CHM), which includes using special fonts and the
proper encoding.
But for the FO-output, there are still some issues with our
style-sheet customizations. That puts me at the moment
a little bit at a loss.
In
procedures, the following occurs:
According our company styles, we need to customize
single step procedures to display in-line.
That’s the code:
<xsl:template
match="procedure">
<xsl:variable
name="id">
<xsl:call-template
name="object.id"/>
</xsl:variable>
<!--===========modification
to allow single-step procedures to appear on the same line=========== ============-->
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when
test="count(step) = 1">
<fo:block
margin-top="10pt">
<fo:table
width="100%">
<fo:table-column
column-width="16pt"/>
<fo:table-column/>
<fo:table-body
start-indent="0pt">
<fo:table-row>
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block
text-align="left"><fo:block-container
reference-orientation="90" position="absolute"
top="10pt" >
<fo:block
font-family="ZapfDingbats">▼</fo:block>
</fo:block-container></fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
<fo:table-cell>
<fo:block>
<fo:wrapper
text-align="left"
xsl:use-attribute-sets="informal.title.properties">
<xsl:apply-templates
select="title/node()"/><xsl:text>, </xsl:text>
</fo:wrapper>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="step/*[1][self::para]/node()"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="step/*[1][not(self::para)]"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="step/*[position() != 1]"/>
</fo:block>
</fo:table-cell>
</fo:table-row>
</fo:table-body>
</fo:table>
</fo:block>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:variable
name="param.placement"
select="substring-after(normalize-space($formal.title.placement),
concat(local-name(.),
' '))"/>
<xsl:variable
name="placement">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when
test="contains($param.placement, ' ')">
<xsl:value-of
select="substring-before($param.placement, ' ')"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when
test="$param.placement = ''">before</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:value-of
select="$param.placement"/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>
<!--
Preserve order of PIs and comments -->
<xsl:variable
name="preamble"
select="*[not(self::step
or
self::title
or
self::titleabbrev)]
|comment()[not(preceding-sibling::step)]
|processing-instruction()[not(preceding-sibling::step)]"/>
<xsl:variable
name="steps"
select="step
|comment()[preceding-sibling::step]
|processing-instruction()[preceding-sibling::step]"/>
<fo:block
id="{$id}" xsl:use-attribute-sets="list.block.spacing">
<xsl:if
test="./title and $placement = 'before'">
<!--
n.b. gentext code tests for $formal.procedures and may make an
"informal" -->
<!--
heading even though we called formal.object.heading. odd but true. -->
<xsl:call-template
name="symboled.procedure.title"/>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="$preamble"/>
<fo:list-block
xsl:use-attribute-sets="list.block.spacing"
provisional-distance-between-starts="2em"
provisional-label-separation="0.2em"
margin-left="8mm">
<xsl:apply-templates
select="$steps"/>
</fo:list-block>
<xsl:if
test="./title and $placement != 'before'">
<!--
n.b. gentext code tests for $formal.procedures and may make an
"informal" -->
<!--
heading even though we called formal.object.heading. odd but true. -->
<xsl:call-template
name="symboled.procedure.title"/>
</xsl:if>
</fo:block>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
That’s the code for the localization:
<xsl:variable
name="font-sansserif">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when
test="book/@lang = 'en'">Arial</xsl:when>
<xsl:when
test="book/@lang = 'ru'">Arial</xsl:when>
<xsl:when
test="book/@lang = 'ja'">MS Mincho</xsl:when>
<xsl:when
test="book/@lang = 'zh-CN'">SimSun</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>Arial</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>
That’s the code for the ‘informal.title.properties’:
<xsl:attribute-set
name="informal.title.properties"
use-attribute-sets="normal.para.spacing">
<xsl:attribute
name="font-weight">bold</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute
name="font-size">10pt</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute
name="font-family"><xsl:value-of select="$font-sansserif"/></xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>
For all other instances, where we use the ‘attribute.sets’
with the value of the variable, all works fine. But it seems that for the fo:table
or the fo:wrapper it doesn’t work: the characters are just
ignored.
In the
glossary, the following occurs:
That occurs whenever ‘emphasis’
role=italic is used in the glossary.
That’s the code for the ‘emphasis’
role=italic: (which works fine whenever it is used all
over the document)
<xsl:template
match="emphasis[@role='italic']">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when
test="ancestor::book/@lang = 'ja'">
<fo:inline>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</fo:inline>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when
test="ancestor::book/@lang = 'zh-CN'">
<fo:inline>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</fo:inline>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:call-template
name="inline.italicseq"/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
It seems that the glossary just ignores ‘ancestor::book’…do
I have to add a ‘lang’ attribute to the glossary too?
It would be great if you have any idea, how I can solve the
problems.
Cheers,
Isabel
