Subject: Re: [docbook] Line numbering ordinary text, not just 'verbatim environments'
Thanks Bob Kevin Brown described a solution for RenderX on the xep-support list that post-processes the XEP intermediate format, so I will give that a try. David On 8/27/14 12:41 PM, Bob Stayton wrote:
I know that the Antenna House XSL Formatter (not the Lite version) can number lines. It has several extension properties like axf:line-number that control application and formatting of the numbers. I'm not sure it will work as you want for tables, as it numbers lines in all cells if you turn it on for the whole table. Since that isn't what you want you would have to turn it on only for cells in the first column and fiddle with the formatting. Another approach is to work with the intermediate format that FOP, XEP, and Antenna House can all produce. This is an XML representation of the typeset area tree, where text lines are marked up as such. It might be possible to intervene to add line numbers, but it might be tricky to avoid messing up the already typeset material.

Rather, it is performed by the next step, the FO processor (such as Apache FOP). So, this might not be possible without some support from the FO processor. Regards, Alexey.

This is for PDF rendering. I found the "line numbering extensions" but I understand that it only applies to 'verbatim environments', which the documentation describes as 'address, literallayout, programlisting, screen, synopsis'. Before I start customizing the stylesheets, is there a mechanism for this already? David PS. Or to put it another way, I am looking for something like Microsoft Word's line numbering feature, but better, in that ideally table lines would also be numbered (which they are not in Word). PPS. Either restarting numbering with a page, or continuous from the start would be fine for my use case. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: docbook-unsubscribe@lists.oasis-open.org For additional commands, e-mail: docbook-help@lists.oasis-open.org--------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: docbook-unsubscribe@lists.oasis-open.org For additional commands, e-mail: docbook-help@lists.oasis-open.org--------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: docbook-unsubscribe@lists.oasis-open.org For additional commands, e-mail: docbook-help@lists.oasis-open.org
