Floats work for figure, but not informalfigure (that is, if your XSL-FO processor supports floats, which FOP does not). XEP does, include inside/outside floats. But I'm not sure why informalfigure has not been implemented in DocBook XSL yet. You might file a bug report on the DocBook SourceForge site about it.

Subject: [docbook-apps] <informalfigure/> floats?


I've been trying to accomplish something that would appear to be relatively easy. But it's stumping me.

(Using XEP 4.9 and DocBook XML 4.4, and DocBook Stylesheets 1.70)

I'd like to have a captioned informal figure around which the text flows.

eg.

<para>
    <informalfigure floatstyle="outside">
       <mediaobject>
          <caption/>
          ....
      </mediaobject
    </informalfigure>
</para>

Given something similar to the above, shouldn't I expect the text to flow around as many as three sides of the figure?
