Re: [docbook-apps] Using xep with fo output, font family selection.

2008-10-27 Thread Dave Pawson

Hi Dick.

Dave,

Pretty much all of the font information can be set with
parameters, so you don't need a customization in most
cases.  Parameters like body.font.family, title.font.family,
and so forth, can be set on the command line for the xslt
processor.


My customization layer seems right for that.
I wasn't sure about it being 'passed on' such that xep
picks up the appropriate font.




XEP fonts are set in the xep.xml file. If you look inside
the default file, you will see examples that are pretty
clear. It shouldn't be any problem to set that file up
to point to the fonts on your system.



Thanks. It did.
  I needed to find M$ Arial unicode (ttf) variant,
then it all went through well.


Now working fine.

Thanks Dick

With PDF jeuclid works fine. With html FFor IE7 can be dictated. 
However, MSHelp is uninteligent and doesn't handle MathML.
 
Does anyone have a solution for that? I don't really want to create a 
process that converts the MathML to image. That would be my last resort.



Guess, but for mshelp that may be the 'final' option.

Perhaps one of the developers can help there, but AFAIK
MSHELP is not keeping up to date.

That does leave the question, how to get to the image, as a
docbook processing option.

Anyone got any preferences?
What format of images works best?
What does mshelp accept etc.

The best cross-platform solution for *displaying* math is to my
knowledge jsMath (http://www.math.union.edu/~dpvc/jsMath/). It works in
any browser with CSS and Javascript support and it relies on TeX syntax.
In principle it should work also in HTML Help.

Any suggestions for a process Jirka?

Mathml to \tex, then jsMath to display? How would that integrate
with the browser showing mshelp?

Do you know of any Mathml to \tex tools? I thought they
were alternatives!
