Hello Bob.

Thank you very much. Perfect! And it works too!

Hi Frank,
In the DocBook XSL stylesheets, only title has its own attribute set. Beyond title, an info element can contain lots of other elements, and those are handled by the titlepage spec mechanism. That is described in my book:

http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/HTMLTitlePage.html

In your specific case, you can accomplish what you want with the following addition to a titlepage spec file before you compile it:

<t:titlepage t:element="section" t:wrapper="fo:block">
<t:titlepage-content t:side="recto">
  <title
           font-family="{$title.fontset}"/>
  <subtitle
           color="blue"
            font-family="Palatino"/>
   ...

(I added color="blue" just to demonstrate that it works, but you probably don't want that).

Subject: [docbook-apps] Styling subtitle


Hello.

I'd like to apply some special font style on section subtitles in my pdf but I am not able to find any applicable properties to tweak. I have tried to set section.title.level2.properties (and level3...level6 too for that matter). But it seems that those properties have no effect what so ever. I am really not an xsl expert... looking at the file "sections.xsl" in the docbook 'fo' directory, it seems to me that section subtitles should be considered as level2 section titles, or not? The fo output file contains this part:

[snip]
         <fo:block>
<fo:block keep-together.within-column="always" font- family="sans-serif,Symbol,ZapfDingbats" margin-left="0pc">
             <fo:block keep-with-next.within-column="always">
<fo:block font-family="Myriad Pro" font- weight="normal" keep-with-next.within-column="always" space- before.minimum="0.8em" space-before.optimum="1.0em" space- before.maximum="1.2em" text-align="start" start-indent="0pc" font- style="normal" font-size="30pt" color="magenta"> <fo:marker marker-class- name="section.head.marker">Section title</fo:marker> <fo:block font-size="20pt" font-family="Myriad Pro" font-weight="normal" font-style="normal" color="#0072BA">Section title</fo:block>
               </fo:block>
             </fo:block>
           </fo:block>
<fo:block keep-together.within-column="always" font- family="sans-serif,Symbol,ZapfDingbats">Section subtitle</fo:block>
         </fo:block>
       </fo:block>
[/snip]

Basic outline of my XML is:
<part>
<section>
<title>Section title</title>
<subtitle>Section subtitle</subtitle>
<para>Paragraph goes here</para>
</section>
</part>

The subtitle is always rendered with Helvetica as font family, even though I've set the body font family to something else. What am I doing wrong? Any ideas?
