Very simple. If you add something like: --- <xsl:param name="foo">wiz</xsl:param> --- to your custom_fo.xsl, then you'll be able to specify "-p foo bar" from the command-line. In such case, string "bar" is used instead of "wiz", the default value specified in custom_fo.xsl. > >> --> In next release, we'll add additional attribute-sets and also >> additional properties (needed to adjust the width of each column) >> allowing to extensively customize the look of the tabular header/footer. > > That is interesting, but since it wasn't on the > http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/roadmap.html I could not have known you > were planning to do that.

I have just noticed that: [a] The proportional column widths of the tabular header are hardwired to 2, 6, 2. [b] There are no attribute-sets allowing to individually style the cells of the tabular header. We are just going to make this a little more flexible. >From what I understand of your needs, you'll probably still have to redefine things in your custom_fo.xsl. -- XMLmind DITA Converter Support List [email protected] http://www.xmlmind.com/mailman/listinfo/ditac-support
