Package: docbook-xsl-ns
Version: 1.75.2+dfsg-5
Severity: wishlist
It's common to abbreviate “XSL Formatting Objects” as XSL-FO:
both English Wikipedia uses this term (say, [1]), and the XSL
1.1 specification [2] makes a reference to it.
Yet, while DocBook 5 XSL certainly allows one to produce XSL-FO,
the straightforward ‘$ apt-cache search xsl-fo ’ search has no
mention of the package. Indeed, the description reads:
The stylesheets provide XSLT transformations for (X)HTML, WordML, HTML Help,
JavaHelp, Man page (nroff), Website, Eclipse Platform Help file and Formatting
Object (FO) output. The latter can be further processed to a number of print
formats using FOP or TeX-based tools.
Therefore, I suggest the following change:
The stylesheets provide XSLT transformations for (X)HTML, WordML, HTML Help,
- JavaHelp, Man page (nroff), Website, Eclipse Platform Help file and Formatting
- Object (FO) output. The latter can be further processed to a number of print
- formats using FOP or TeX-based tools.
+ JavaHelp, Man page (nroff), Website, Eclipse Platform Help file and XSL
+ Formatting Objects (XSL-FO) output. The latter can be further processed to a
+ number of print formats using FOP or TeX-based tools.
