DOCBOOK-APPS: Different recto and verso margins ...

[Richard Sharpe]

Hi,

I have got my two-side stuff seemingly working, with the appropriate things
set in JadeTex and so forth.

However, if I use different left and right margins, to allow for the
binding that will occur, I do not seem to get these alternating on recto
and verso pages. They are the same on each page, which will create a funny
effect.

Does anyone know how to get recto and verso pages alternating their margins?

Regards

Here's one answer from the docbook-apps archive, addressing XSL:

version="1.0">

If you're using DSSSL, check the new FAQ:

You can put it anywhere, provided the relative paths to other
files (distribution) are correct.

DOCBOOK-APPS: DocBook DSSSL FAQ: SGML version

[Michael Wiedmann]

As suggested by a few members of this ML I make the SGML version of the
'DocBook DSSSL Stylesheet FAQ' available online too:

http://www.miwie.org/docbook-dsssl-faq.sgml

The HTML version is available at the usual place:

http://www.miwie.org/docbook-dsssl-faq.html

Beginning from Thursday I will be away from my email for 2 weeks thus
there will be no new version of the FAQ before I return. Of course no
contribution to the FAQ will be lost - I hope there will be quite
a few waiting for me...

Michael

I use docbook under Norms website.

I have no problems creating the links
in fact the stylesheet does it all for me.

Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: Chunk wish

[Norman Walsh]

If you grab the XSL stylesheets from CVS, you'll find that I've added
two parameters to control chunking: chunk.sections and chunk.first.sections.

If you turn off chunk.sections, you'll get chapter-only level chunking.

If you turn on chunk.first.sections, you'll get a separate chunk for each
top-level section, including the first.

Be seeing you,
  norm

DOCBOOK-APPS: Re: DOCBOOK: Using a bitmap file as book title

[Bob McIlvride]

The position of many things on the title page, including graphics, is
determined by the stylesheet, at least for SGML/DSSSL.  Here is an
example of what we put in our DSSSL customization layer to order our
title page elements:

(define (set-titlepage-recto-elements)
  (list (normalize "mediaobject")
(normalize "title")
(normalize "subtitle")
(normalize "corpauthor")
(normalize "authorgroup")
(normalize "author")
(normalize "editor")
(normalize "copyright")
(normalize "releaseinfo")
(normalize "date")
(normalize "abstract")
(normalize "legalnotice")))

Changing the order of any of these changes the order they are displayed
on the title page.  Hope this helps.


Cheerio!

Bob

DOCBOOK-APPS: Line spacing ...

[Richard Sharpe]

Hi,

I now seem to be plagued by too much space between the hrule and the footer
...

I have played around with line-spacing and other things, as well as
space-after and space-before, but can't get rid of about 4-6 pts of space.
