(even if there is some issue due to the size of the XSLT)
The part about customizing the XSL-FO is obviously not supported but PDFClass.style is since it's about the xhtml content before it's converted to XSL-FO. I could add something like PDFClass.xhtmlofficexsl to customize the xhtml before exporting it like we have PDFClass.fopxsl to customize XSL-FO content for maybe if needed. And it's still possible to customize the xhtml by modifying pdf.vm of course. > > Denis > > >> >> We should probably not show RTF export in the menu when openoffice >> server is not connected since it does not work at all even with empty >> content or remove the table generated by the XSLT filter for the >> cover. >> >> -- >> Thomas Mortagne >> _______________________________________________ >> devs mailing list >> [email protected] >> http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs >> > > > > -- > Denis Gervalle > SOFTEC sa - CEO > eGuilde sarl - CTO > _______________________________________________ > devs mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs > -- Thomas Mortagne _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
