Re: [NTG-context] cals tables - UNSOLVED
Dear All,
After having succeeded with Aditya's kind help to typeset a table file in a
separate pdf, I have been trying to typeset the cals tables in my docbook xml
file in two ways:
A. directly in the document.
The table is in //section/cals:table.
The cals module is loaded at the beginning of the document. But in the pdf
there is no trace of any table. Do I need to add
definition somewhere? Perhaps in this list where the xml items are introduced?
\xmlsetsetup{#1}{article|footnote|foreignphrase|section [snippet]
para|quote|itemizedlist|listitem}{xml:*}
This would be contrary to working with the directives and the cals module.
B. as a separate document in a mediaobject
Usually docbook files can contain tables, but there is nothing against imported
a separate files. I chose to use the graphics wrapper:
(I also tried
fileref="test2.xml")
I know that the object is found, because I use a marker (TABEL 3), which is
printed in the pdf.
\startxmlsetups xml:mediaobject:imageobject:imagedata:tabel
\xmlloaddirectives{directives.xml}
TABEL 3
\xmlprocess{xml:cals:process}{\xmlatt{#1}{fileref}}{}
\stopxmlsetups
The xml file, and I believe here the table file is meant, is not imported
though. The log file says that the xml file is invalid, but that is not true.
It is Hans' simple test table (alpha, betha, gamma), it is validated by xml
software, and moreover, it can be typeset without any problems in a separate
pdf.
\pages > flushing realpage 24, userpage 24
lxml: 9 directives found in 'directives.xml', 9 valid
load> invalid xml file - parsed text
The log file also says that the text is parsed. But there is no text from the
table in the pdf.
%I tried loading the directives in various places, e.g. directly after the
module in the top of the document and after the command \startxmlsetups
xml:dbsetups.
Well, has anyone any advice? Or should I give up on this?
Regards,
Robert

Dear Aditya,
thanks greatly for your advice! It works! I now can influence how my tables
look like.

Re: [NTG-context] cals tables - UNSOLVED
Dear All,
I am still trying to typeset cals tables.
I have
1. an environment document with instructions.
2. an xml docbook file containing cals tables
Note that the original cals tables (docbook standard) use
\xmlcontextdirective {cdx} {colors} {cals:table} {cdx:cals:table:colors}
But there is no effect, and I don't know whether I did this right. However,
loading the separate xml file and processing the table remain the main problem.
When the process instruction is part of a setup in an environment file, such as:
\startxmlsetups xml:mediaobject:imageobject:imagedata:tabel
\xmlloaddirectives{x-cals-test.cdx}%
\xmlprocess{main}{\xmlatt{#1}{fileref}}{}
\stopxmlsetups
The table is not typeset and the entire file is broken off at this point (the
table xml file is valid of course).
So the table is probably read in, but then something happens. Without the
table, the file is typeset normally.
I already read and reread all information in the manuals on this subject, and
all archived email correspondence.
Can anyone explain me in more than one line how to set up an environmental
file? Or show me a working minimal example?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Robert
