That's right. What I've suggested is not supported by the DocBook XSLT style sheets (used to convert DocBook to XSL-FO, then to RTF, PDF, etc). The DocBook XSLT style sheets report the following warning: Don't know what gentext to create for xref to: "mediaobject" Sorry for not having tested it with mediaobject. Therefore, the simplest thing to do is to revert to figures and this time, to specify a title for each figure. There are of course more sophisticated approaches which can give you exactly what you want, but this is out of the scope of this mailing list. > -----Mensaje original----- > De: Hussein Shafie [mailto:hussein at xmlmind.com] > Enviado el: jueves, 25 de septiembre de 2008 10:17 > Para: Sandra Sol Rodrigo > CC: xmleditor-support at xmlmind.com > Asunto: Re: [XXE] Question about xref > > Sandra Sol Rodrigo wrote: >> >> >> I'm using "xref" with the figures of a document and when I export the >> document to RTF the reference appears as *Figure 1.1, "" >> <#main_config>*.
