Hello,
Because there was no PDF available at the LFS download page I am
trying to build the LFS book as PDF. Unfortunately I do know more
about XML that what I learned in the few days I am working at this task.
Until now I did the following steps:
* adjusted BOOK/stylesheets/lfs-xsl/pdf/lfs-mixed.xsl so that
* breaking the scripts and rules in the appendix is possible
* reduced font-size of the element screen in appendix, so that width of
scripts is lesser than width of containing screen
* line breaks with '\' at several commands so that width of commands
is lesser than width of containing screen element, necessary in:
* BOOK/prologue/hostreqs.xml
* BOOK/chapter06/coreutils.xml
* BOOK/chapter05/gcc-pass1.xml
* BOOK/chapter05/e2fsprogs.xml
Now the PDF ist close to perfect. According to fop's output there seem
to be some problems with the scripts, which do not the effect of the
pdf output.
But much more annoying: there remains a problem with the table in
BOOK/chapter06/man-db.xml. It is to huge for one page, but kept
together on this page. I tried to solve the problem by adding
<? dbfo keep.together="auto" ?>
below <table> . This did not work. I already had a look at
/BOOK/stylesheets/lfs-xsl/docbook-xsl-snapshot/fo/table.xsl but found
no reason why <? dbfo keep.together="auto" ?> did not work.
Yes, I know I could break this table somehow by hand but I think that
is not the way it should be. How do I get this table to break at the
end of the page?
Thanks, Martin.
