I am using quickbook and boostbook to generate the pdf file. Everything
is fine. But when I try to display some long command lines in the
certain style (I don't know how to call the style. In the .qbk file, it
is with several blanks at the beginning of the line). Thoses lines seem
good in html file but are out of range in the pdf file. Attached files
are .pdf file and .qbk file. What's the reason?
For clarity, we call that style "code blocks".
Code blocks are treated like the HTML tag <pre>, which means long lines
cannot be wrapped. In general, if this were to be done a convention for
distinguishing between wrapped lines and non-wrapped lines would be needed.
Anyway, this behaviour is handled by the DocBook stylesheets and by the
way the browser (for HTML) or FOP (for PDF) renders the markup. I don't
think there is much we can do about it. Your best option may be to break
the long lines manually, perhaps with an indication to the user that
it's supposed to be a single long line:
Several commands are
>>>YOKO = long command line long command line
<continued> long command line long command line
<continued> long line long command line
Although it would surely look nicer with a continuation image instead of
"<continued>" ;-)
Not much of a help, but anyway...
Best Regards,
João
