Subject: [docbook] PDF Convertion faults



HI @ all

There are some faults by converting my file (with docbook 5.0) into pdf. The
following are:

- links on external homepages doesn't work. i create them this way:

<link xl:href="www.google.ch">Google</link>

This works when I try it.  Does your XML file declare the xl namespace?

- there is no breakup

I don't understand what you mean by "breakup".

- the tables are illegal ( table-layout="auto")

Most tables are assigned table-layout="fixed", but there are a few layout tables for certain elements generated by the stylesheet that don't have a table-layout property. That is a deficiency of the stylesheet, but FOP still processes them as "fixed" after complaining about them.

- some pages produce an overflow

FOP still has some bugs like that. Turning off keep-together on tables seems to help.

- the formatting with CSS doesn't work. Is this because the FOP can't read
CSS?

That's correct.
