Folks, This is another question where I just don't know enough to know where to start. I suspect that the solution is somewhere in the xsl layer, but I don't enough to be sure. I'm using docbook and renderX to produce the final documents in pdf format so this could end up being a docbook or renderx question more than an xxe question. Maybe I should be using your FO converter instead of renderx... Is there a high level drawing or something that shows how all this fits together.
I'm trying to accomplish the following 1. Control page breaks so that I can do things like start the table of contents that's generated on a new page, and start each top level section on a new page and add new pages between sub-sections as needed. 2. I use these documents as lecture handouts and I'd like to do something similar to the way that I've used MS Word. I put my speaking notes in comments and then for the handouts I turn markup off to print the documents for the audience, and turn markup on to print the copy that I will speak from. I'm thinking that the solution is to choose a specific element to use for my speaking notes and then create two xsls one that puts the element in the document and one that doesn't. I'm just not sure if someone has solved this problem before me or not. It seems like a lot of work and I don't feel comfortable hijacking docbook elements for my own purposes. If someone could point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it Thanks, Kurt
