Example: "Page {{page-number}} of {{page-count}}". Though I admit I have not attempted to set the "text" part to XML-FO to see what would happen. > In order to learn which CSS styles/XSL attribute-sets you'll have to > specify, there is, for now, no other solution than reading the XSL source of > ditac (which is found in ditac_install_dir/xsl/xhtml/, > ditac_install_dir/xsl/fo/, etc). OK, that is what we did with our previous solution. But we had to end up duplicating a lot of that code so we could affect/change just one small part of it. When we finally get around to updating to 2.2+ I will send back the changes on the small chance you would want to pick them back up.
