I have removed dbfo-need. It seems that my mediaobject had the wrong scaling properties.

This way, if I want to use a graphic on the mostly blank title page of the special appendix, I can allow normal DocBook processing to go ahead by simply enclosing it in a <para> element. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
