Hi Hussein and DITAC support teamThank you very much for the solution. I spent several hours trying to figure what i should be doing with no success. Then in "chapter 9. Simple Customization" for the "Customizing the look of PDF files generated by ditac" in the ditac manual, unless i missed something while reading it, there is an instruction that says to use "
-t customize/custom_fo.xsl"This command (though with the correct path to the custom_fo.xsl file) is not recognized by the parser and cause it to come back with a series of commands no different than what is the manual.

Your argument list contains: -p -xslt xslDirURL.toExternalForm() + "fo/customize/custom_fo.xsl" This triplet parses OK but means pass XSLT stylesheet parameter called "-xslt" with a value equal to xslDirURL.toExternalForm() + "fo/customize/custom_fo.xsl"to the XSL stylesheet generating the XSL-FO. This is certainly not what you want to do.If you simply remove the superfluous -p and keep just: -xslt xslDirURL.toExternalForm() + "fo/customize/custom_fo.xsl" it will work OK. For example: --- ditac -vvv \ -xslt file:/home/hussein/tmp/aperri/custom_fo.xsl \ -frontmatter toc,figurelist \ -p footer-center "{{topic-title}}" \ -p foProcessor FOP \ -p screen-resolution 96 \ -p page-orientation landscape \ -p default-table-width 100% \ -p title-after "fig table" \ -p base-font-size 8pt \ -p number all \ -p pdf-outline yes \ manual.pdf manual.ditamap --- allowed me to use your custom_fo.xsl to generate this PDF file: http://www.pixware.fr/_download/aperri/manual.pdf
