Re: [docbook-apps] glossary in before lot

Hi,

Yes, it is possible.  If your document is a book,then you need to customize the template named 'make.book.tocs' from fo/division.xsl.  If you document is an article, then you need to customize the template named 'make.component.tocs' from fo/component.xsl.  In each of those, you can put:

 

<xsl:call-template name="make-glossary"/>

 

between the main TOC and the LOTs.  If it is a book, then you will need to follow the examples of the LOTs and put the call to that template inside  a call to the "page.sequence" utility template to generate a page sequence for it.  For an article, there is only one page sequence.

 

You'll also need to turn off the glossary where it would appear in document order.  That can be done with a template like this:

 

<xsl:template match="glossary"/>

Subject: [docbook-apps] glossary in before lot

Hello,

I am currently working on my term paper and would like to use docbook. I already spent hours for customization since in Germany universities have strict layout rules regarding term papers. What I couldn't find until now is a way to have the glossary being printed before the list of tables. Is there any way to do it?

If I can't find a way I would be forced to use MS Word. :-(

Best regards and many thanks in advance
