Hello, I am new on this list, so please forgive me, if this is a FAQ.
I want to use conditional page breaks, but they seem to change para spacing. A sample docbook source looks like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!DOCTYPE book> <book version="5.0" xml:lang="de" xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook";> <chapter> <title>Chapter</title> <para>Para1</para> <para>Para2</para> <para>Para3</para> <para>Para4</para> <?dbfo-need height="10cm"?> <para>Para5</para> <?dbfo-need height="10cm"?> <para>Para6</para> <para>Para7</para> </chapter> </book> When I transform this document source with docbook-xsl-ns-1.78.1/fo/docbook.xsl and FOP Version 1.1 to pdf, the para spacing between Para4/Para5 and between Para5/Para6 is increased. I need to add space-before="0mm" to dbfo-need to make the soft page breaks invisible, when the do not cause a page break. Is this intentional or is there a mistake in my document, that I do not see. I looked into pi.xsl and there seems to be a lot of code to determine correct spacing, if space-before is missing, but I am not that fluent in xslt and docbook, to completely understand that part. 73, Mario -- Mario Klebsch [email protected] PGP key: http://www.klebsch.de/public.key PGP fingerprint: C906 D123 2361 2164 218F 1B52 6258 1853 300B 6C18
