About this document This is generated reference documentation for the DocBook XSL stylesheets. It is available in the following formats: HTML, PDF, plain text This is primarily documentation on the parameters and processing instructions you can use to control the behavior of the stylesheets. This is purely reference documentation – not how-to documentation. For a thorough step-by-step how-to guide to publishing content using the DocBook XSL stylesheets, see Bob Stayton’s DocBook XSL: The Complete Guide, available online at http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/index.html This document is divided into three sets of references: the first two sets provides user documentation; the third, developer documentation. DocBook XSL Stylesheets User Reference: Parameters This is generated reference documentation for all user-configurable parameters in the DocBook XSL stylesheets. This is purely reference documentation – not how-to documentation. For a thorough step-by-step how-to guide to publishing content using the DocBook XSL stylesheets, see Bob Stayton’s DocBook XSL: The Complete Guide, available online at http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/index.html HTML Parameter Reference This is reference documentation for all user-configurable parameters in the DocBook XSL HTML stylesheets (for generating HTML output). Admonitions admon.graphics.extension string admon.graphics.extension Filename extension for admonition graphics <xsl:param name="admon.graphics.extension">.png</xsl:param> Description Sets the filename extension to use on admonition graphics. admon.graphics.path string admon.graphics.path Path to admonition graphics <xsl:param name="admon.graphics.path">images/</xsl:param> Description Sets the path to the directory containing the admonition graphics (caution.png, important.png etc). This location is normally relative to the output html directory. See base.dir admon.graphics boolean admon.graphics Use graphics in admonitions? <xsl:param name="admon.graphics" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If true (non-zero), admonitions are presented in an alternate style that uses a graphic. Default graphics are provided in the distribution. admon.textlabel boolean admon.textlabel Use text label in admonitions? <xsl:param name="admon.textlabel" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If true (non-zero), admonitions are presented with a generated text label such as Note or Warning in the appropriate language. If zero, such labels are turned off, but any title child of the admonition element are still output. The default value is 1. admon.style string admon.style Specifies the CSS style attribute that should be added to admonitions. <xsl:param name="admon.style"> <xsl:value-of select="concat('margin-', $direction.align.start, ': 0.5in; margin-', $direction.align.end, ': 0.5in;')"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:param> Description Specifies the value of the CSS style attribute that should be added to admonitions. Callouts callout.defaultcolumn integer callout.defaultcolumn Indicates what column callouts appear in by default <xsl:param name="callout.defaultcolumn">60</xsl:param> Description If a callout does not identify a column (for example, if it uses the linerange unit), it will appear in the default column. callout.graphics.extension string callout.graphics.extension Filename extension for callout graphics <xsl:param name="callout.graphics.extension">.png</xsl:param> Description Sets the filename extension to use on callout graphics. The Docbook XSL distribution provides callout graphics in the following formats: SVG (extension: .svg) PNG (extension: .png) GIF (extension: .gif) callout.graphics.number.limit integer callout.graphics.number.limit Number of the largest callout graphic <xsl:param name="callout.graphics.number.limit">15</xsl:param> Description If callout.graphics is non-zero, graphics are used to represent callout numbers instead of plain text. The value of callout.graphics.number.limit is the largest number for which a graphic exists. If the callout number exceeds this limit, the default presentation "(plain text instead of a graphic)" will be used. callout.graphics.path string callout.graphics.path Path to callout graphics <xsl:param name="callout.graphics.path">images/callouts/</xsl:param> Description Sets the path to the directory holding the callout graphics. his location is normally relative to the output html directory. see base.dir. Always terminate the directory with / since the graphic file is appended to this string, hence needs the separator. callout.graphics boolean callout.graphics Use graphics for callouts? <xsl:param name="callout.graphics" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, callouts are presented with graphics (e.g., reverse-video circled numbers instead of "(1)", "(2)", etc.). Default graphics are provided in the distribution. callout.list.table boolean callout.list.table Present callout lists using a table? <xsl:param name="callout.list.table" select="1"></xsl:param> Description The default presentation of calloutlists uses an HTML DL element. Some browsers don't align DLs very well if callout.graphics is used. With this option turned on, calloutlists are presented in an HTML TABLE, which usually results in better alignment of the callout number with the callout description. callout.unicode.number.limit integer callout.unicode.number.limit Number of the largest unicode callout character <xsl:param name="callout.unicode.number.limit">10</xsl:param> Description If callout.unicode is non-zero, unicode characters are used to represent callout numbers. The value of callout.unicode.number.limit is the largest number for which a unicode character exists. If the callout number exceeds this limit, the default presentation "(nnn)" will always be used. callout.unicode.start.character integer callout.unicode.start.character First Unicode character to use, decimal value. <xsl:param name="callout.unicode.start.character">10102</xsl:param> Description If callout.graphics is zero and callout.unicode is non-zero, unicode characters are used to represent callout numbers. The value of callout.unicode.start.character is the decimal unicode value used for callout number one. Currently, only 10102 is supported in the stylesheets for this parameter. callout.unicode boolean callout.unicode Use Unicode characters rather than images for callouts. <xsl:param name="callout.unicode" select="0"></xsl:param> Description The stylesheets can use either an image of the numbers one to ten, or the single Unicode character which represents the numeral, in white on a black background. Use this to select the Unicode character option. callouts.extension boolean callouts.extension Enable the callout extension <xsl:param name="callouts.extension" select="1"></xsl:param> Description The callouts extension processes areaset elements in programlistingco and other text-based callout elements. EBNF ebnf.table.bgcolor color ebnf.table.bgcolor Background color for EBNF tables <xsl:param name="ebnf.table.bgcolor">#F5DCB3</xsl:param> Description Sets the background color for EBNF tables (a pale brown). No bgcolor attribute is output if ebnf.table.bgcolor is set to the null string. ebnf.table.border boolean ebnf.table.border Selects border on EBNF tables <xsl:param name="ebnf.table.border" select="1"></xsl:param> Description Selects the border on EBNF tables. If non-zero, the tables have borders, otherwise they don't. ebnf.assignment rtf ebnf.assignment The EBNF production assignment operator <xsl:param name="ebnf.assignment"> <code>::=</code> </xsl:param> Description The ebnf.assignment parameter determines what text is used to show assignment in productions in productionsets. While ::= is common, so are several other operators. ebnf.statement.terminator rtf ebnf.statement.terminator Punctuation that ends an EBNF statement. <xsl:param name="ebnf.statement.terminator"></xsl:param> Description The ebnf.statement.terminator parameter determines what text is used to terminate each production in productionset. Some notations end each statement with a period. ToC/LoT/Index Generation annotate.toc boolean annotate.toc Annotate the Table of Contents? <xsl:param name="annotate.toc" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If true, TOCs will be annotated. At present, this just means that the refpurpose of refentry TOC entries will be displayed. autotoc.label.separator string autotoc.label.separator Separator between labels and titles in the ToC <xsl:param name="autotoc.label.separator">. </xsl:param> Description String used to separate labels and titles in a table of contents. autotoc.label.in.hyperlink boolean autotoc.label.in.hyperlink Include label in hyperlinked titles in TOC? <xsl:param name="autotoc.label.in.hyperlink" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If the value of autotoc.label.in.hyperlink is non-zero, labels are included in hyperlinked titles in the TOC. If it is instead zero, labels are still displayed prior to the hyperlinked titles, but are not hyperlinked along with the titles. process.source.toc boolean process.source.toc Process a non-empty toc element if it occurs in a source document? <xsl:param name="process.source.toc" select="0"></xsl:param> Description Specifies that the contents of a non-empty "hard-coded" toc element in a source document are processed to generate a TOC in output. This parameter has no effect on automated generation of TOCs. An automated TOC may still be generated along with the "hard-coded" TOC. To suppress automated TOC generation, adjust the value of the generate.toc paramameter. The process.source.toc parameter also has no effect if the toc element is empty; handling for empty toc is controlled by the process.empty.source.toc parameter. process.empty.source.toc boolean process.empty.source.toc Generate automated TOC if toc element occurs in a source document? <xsl:param name="process.empty.source.toc" select="0"></xsl:param> Description Specifies that if an empty toc element is found in a source document, an automated TOC is generated at this point in the document. Depending on what the value of the generate.toc parameter is, setting this parameter to 1 could result in generation of duplicate automated TOCs. So the process.empty.source.toc is primarily useful as an "override": by placing an empty toc in your document and setting this parameter to 1, you can force a TOC to be generated even if generate.toc says not to. bridgehead.in.toc boolean bridgehead.in.toc Should bridgehead elements appear in the TOC? <xsl:param name="bridgehead.in.toc" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, bridgeheads appear in the TOC. Note that this option is not fully supported and may be removed in a future version of the stylesheets. simplesect.in.toc boolean simplesect.in.toc Should simplesect elements appear in the TOC? <xsl:param name="simplesect.in.toc" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, simplesects will be included in the TOC. manual.toc string manual.toc An explicit TOC to be used for the TOC <xsl:param name="manual.toc"></xsl:param> Description The manual.toc identifies an explicit TOC that will be used for building the printed TOC. toc.list.type list dl ul ol toc.list.type Type of HTML list element to use for Tables of Contents <xsl:param name="toc.list.type">dl</xsl:param> Description When an automatically generated Table of Contents (or List of Titles) is produced, this HTML element will be used to make the list. toc.section.depth integer toc.section.depth How deep should recursive sections appear in the TOC? <xsl:param name="toc.section.depth">2</xsl:param> Description Specifies the depth to which recursive sections should appear in the TOC. toc.max.depth integer toc.max.depth How many levels should be created for each TOC? <xsl:param name="toc.max.depth">8</xsl:param> Description Specifies the maximal depth of TOC on all levels. generate.toc table generate.toc Control generation of ToCs and LoTs <xsl:param name="generate.toc"> appendix toc,title article/appendix nop article toc,title book toc,title,figure,table,example,equation chapter toc,title part toc,title preface toc,title qandadiv toc qandaset toc reference toc,title sect1 toc sect2 toc sect3 toc sect4 toc sect5 toc section toc set toc,title </xsl:param> Description This parameter has a structured value. It is a table of space-delimited path/value pairs. Each path identifies some element in the source document using a restricted subset of XPath (only the implicit child axis, no wildcards, no predicates). Paths can be either relative or absolute. When processing a particular element, the stylesheets consult this table to determine if a ToC (or LoT(s)) should be generated. For example, consider the entry: book toc,figure This indicates that whenever a book is formatted, a Table Of Contents and a List of Figures should be generated. Similarly, /chapter toc indicates that whenever a document that has a root of chapter is formatted, a Table of Contents should be generated. The entry chapter would match all chapters, but /chapter matches only chapter document elements. Generally, the longest match wins. So, for example, if you want to distinguish articles in books from articles in parts, you could use these two entries: book/article toc,figure part/article toc Note that an article in a part can never match a book/article, so if you want nothing to be generated for articles in parts, you can simply leave that rule out. If you want to leave the rule in, to make it explicit that you're turning something off, use the value nop. For example, the following entry disables ToCs and LoTs for articles: article nop Do not simply leave the word article in the file without a matching value. That'd be just begging the silly little path/value parser to get confused. Section ToCs are further controlled by the generate.section.toc.level parameter. For a given section level to have a ToC, it must have both an entry in generate.toc and be within the range enabled by generate.section.toc.level. generate.section.toc.level integer generate.section.toc.level Control depth of TOC generation in sections <xsl:param name="generate.section.toc.level" select="0"></xsl:param> Description The generate.section.toc.level parameter controls the depth of section in which TOCs will be generated. Note that this is related to, but not the same as toc.section.depth, which controls the depth to which TOC entries will be generated in a given TOC. If, for example, generate.section.toc.level is 3, TOCs will be generated in first, second, and third level sections, but not in fourth level sections. generate.index boolean generate.index Do you want an index? <xsl:param name="generate.index" select="1"></xsl:param> Description Specify if an index should be generated. index.method list basic kosek kimber index.method Select method used to group index entries in an index <xsl:param name="index.method">basic</xsl:param> Description This parameter lets you select which method to use for sorting and grouping index entries in an index. Indexes in Latin-based languages that have accented characters typically sort together accented words and unaccented words. Thus Á (U+00C1 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH ACUTE) would sort together with A (U+0041 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A), so both would appear in the A section of the index. Languages using other alphabets (such as Russian, which is written in the Cyrillic alphabet) and languages using ideographic chararacters (such as Japanese) require grouping specific to the languages and alphabets. The default indexing method is limited. It can group accented characters in Latin-based languages only. It cannot handle non-Latin alphabets or ideographic languages. The other indexing methods require extensions of one type or another, and do not work with all XSLT processors, which is why they are not used by default. The three choices for indexing method are: basic (default) Sort and groups words based only on the Latin alphabet. Words with accented Latin letters will group and sort with their respective primary letter, but words in non-Latin alphabets will be put in the Symbols section of the index. kosek This method sorts and groups words based on letter groups configured in the DocBook locale file for the given language. See, for example, the French locale file common/fr.xml. This method requires that the XSLT processor supports the EXSLT extensions (most do). It also requires support for using user-defined functions in xsl:key (xsltproc does not). This method is suitable for any language for which you can list all the individual characters that should appear in each letter group in an index. It is probably not practical to use it for ideographic languages such as Chinese that have hundreds or thousands of characters. To use the kosek method, you must: Use a processor that supports its extensions, such as Saxon 6 or Xalan (xsltproc and Saxon 8 do not). Set the index.method parameter's value to kosek. Import the appropriate index extensions stylesheet module fo/autoidx-kosek.xsl or html/autoidx-kosek.xsl into your customization. kimber This method uses extensions to the Saxon processor to implement sophisticated indexing processes. It uses its own configuration file, which can include information for any number of languages. Each language's configuration can group words using one of two processes. In the enumerated process similar to that used in the kosek method, you indicate the groupings character-by-character. In the between-key process, you specify the break-points in the sort order that should start a new group. The latter configuration is useful for ideographic languages such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. You can also define your own collation algorithms and how you want mixed Latin-alphabet words sorted. For a whitepaper describing the extensions, see: http://www.innodata-isogen.com/knowledge_center/white_papers/back_of_book_for_xsl_fo.pdf. To download the extension library, see http://www.innodata-isogen.com/knowledge_center/tools_downloads/i18nsupport. To use the kimber method, you must: Use Saxon (version 6 or 8) as your XSLT processor. Install and configure the Innodata Isogen library, using the documentation that comes with it. Set the index.method parameter's value to kimber. Import the appropriate index extensions stylesheet module fo/autoidx-kimber.xsl or html/autoidx-kimber.xsl into your customization. index.on.type boolean index.on.type Select indexterms based on type attribute value <xsl:param name="index.on.type" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then an index element that has a type attribute value will contain only those indexterm elements with a matching type attribute value. If an index has no type attribute or it is blank, then the index will contain all indexterms in the current scope. If index.on.type is zero, then the type attribute has no effect on selecting indexterms for an index. For those using DocBook version 4.2 or earlier, the type attribute is not available for index terms. However, you can achieve the same effect by using the role attribute in the same manner on indexterm and index, and setting the stylesheet parameter index.on.role to a nonzero value. index.on.role boolean index.on.role Select indexterms based on role value <xsl:param name="index.on.role" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then an index element that has a role attribute value will contain only those indexterm elements with a matching role value. If an index has no role attribute or it is blank, then the index will contain all indexterms in the current scope. If index.on.role is zero, then the role attribute has no effect on selecting indexterms for an index. If you are using DocBook version 4.3 or later, you should use the type attribute instead of role on indexterm and index, and set the index.on.type to a nonzero value. index.links.to.section boolean index.links.to.section HTML index entries link to container section title <xsl:param name="index.links.to.section" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If zero, then an index entry in an index links directly to the location of the generated anchor that is output for the indexterm. If two identical indexterm elements exist in the same section, then both entries appear in the index with the same title but link to different locations. If non-zero, then an index entry in an index links to the section title containing the indexterm, rather than directly to the anchor output for the indexterm. Duplicate indexterm entries in the same section are dropped. The default value is 1, so index entries link to section titles by default. In both cases, the link text in an index entry is the title of the section containing the indexterm. That is because HTML does not have numbered pages. It also provides the reader with context information for each link. This parameter lets you choose which style of index linking you want. When set to 0, an index entry takes you to the precise location of its corresponding indexterm. However, if you have a lot of duplicate entries in sections, then you have a lot of duplicate titles in the index, which makes it more cluttered. The reader may not recognize why duplicate titles appear until they follow the links. Also, the links may land the reader in the middle of a section where the section title is not visible, which may also be confusing to the reader. When set to 1, an index entry link is less precise, but duplicate titles in the index entries are eliminated. Landing on the section title location may confirm the reader's expectation that a link that shows a section title will take them to that section title, not a location within the section. index.prefer.titleabbrev boolean index.prefer.titleabbrev Should abbreviated titles be used as back references? <xsl:param name="index.prefer.titleabbrev" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, and if a titleabbrev is defined, the abbreviated title is used as the link text of a back reference in the index. index.term.separator string index.term.separator Override for punctuation separating an index term from its list of page references in an index <xsl:param name="index.term.separator"></xsl:param> Description This parameter permits you to override the text to insert between the end of an index term and its list of page references. Typically that might be a comma and a space. Because this text may be locale dependent, this parameter's value is normally taken from a gentext template named 'term-separator' in the context 'index' in the stylesheet locale file for the language of the current document. This parameter can be used to override the gentext string, and would typically be used on the command line. This parameter would apply to all languages. So this text string can be customized in two ways. You can reset the default gentext string using the local.l10n.xml parameter, or you can fill in the content for this normally empty override parameter. The content can be a simple string, or it can be something more complex such as a call-template. For fo output, it could be an fo:leader element to provide space of a specific length, or a dot leader. index.number.separator string index.number.separator Override for punctuation separating page numbers in index <xsl:param name="index.number.separator"></xsl:param> Description This parameter permits you to override the text to insert between page references in a formatted index entry. Typically that would be a comma and a space. Because this text may be locale dependent, this parameter's value is normally taken from a gentext template named 'number-separator' in the context 'index' in the stylesheet locale file for the language of the current document. This parameter can be used to override the gentext string, and would typically be used on the command line. This parameter would apply to all languages. So this text string can be customized in two ways. You can reset the default gentext string using the local.l10n.xml parameter, or you can override the gentext with the content of this parameter. The content can be a simple string, or it can be something more complex such as a call-template. In HTML index output, section title references are used instead of page number references. This punctuation appears between such section titles in an HTML index. index.range.separator string index.range.separator Override for punctuation separating the two numbers in a page range in index <xsl:param name="index.range.separator"></xsl:param> Description This parameter permits you to override the text to insert between the two numbers of a page range in an index. This parameter is only used by those XSL-FO processors that support an extension for generating such page ranges (such as XEP). Because this text may be locale dependent, this parameter's value is normally taken from a gentext template named 'range-separator' in the context 'index' in the stylesheet locale file for the language of the current document. This parameter can be used to override the gentext string, and would typically be used on the command line. This parameter would apply to all languages. So this text string can be customized in two ways. You can reset the default gentext string using the local.l10n.xml parameter, or you can override the gentext with the content of this parameter. The content can be a simple string, or it can be something more complex such as a call-template. In HTML index output, section title references are used instead of page number references. So there are no page ranges and this parameter has no effect. Stylesheet Extensions linenumbering.everyNth integer linenumbering.everyNth Indicate which lines should be numbered <xsl:param name="linenumbering.everyNth">5</xsl:param> Description If line numbering is enabled, everyNth line will be numbered. Note that numbering is one based, not zero based. linenumbering.extension boolean linenumbering.extension Enable the line numbering extension <xsl:param name="linenumbering.extension" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, verbatim environments (address, literallayout, programlisting, screen, synopsis) that specify line numbering will have line numbers. linenumbering.separator string linenumbering.separator Specify a separator between line numbers and lines <xsl:param name="linenumbering.separator"><xsl:text> </xsl:text></xsl:param> Description The separator is inserted between line numbers and lines in the verbatim environment. The default value is a single white space. Note the interaction with linenumbering.width linenumbering.width integer linenumbering.width Indicates the width of line numbers <xsl:param name="linenumbering.width">3</xsl:param> Description If line numbering is enabled, line numbers will appear right justified in a field "width" characters wide. tablecolumns.extension boolean tablecolumns.extension Enable the table columns extension function <xsl:param name="tablecolumns.extension" select="1"></xsl:param> Description The table columns extension function adjusts the widths of table columns in the HTML result to more accurately reflect the specifications in the CALS table. textinsert.extension boolean textinsert.extension Enables the textinsert extension element <xsl:param name="textinsert.extension" select="1"></xsl:param> Description The textinsert extension element inserts the contents of a file into the result tree (as text). To use the textinsert extension element, you must use either Saxon or Xalan as your XSLT processor (it doesn’t work with xsltproc), along with either the DocBook Saxon extensions or DocBook Xalan extensions (for more information about those extensions, see DocBook Saxon Extensions and DocBook Xalan Extensions), and you must set both the use.extensions and textinsert.extension parameters to 1. As an alternative to using the textinsert element, consider using an Xinclude element with the parse="text" attribute and value specified, as detailed in Using XInclude for text inclusions. See Also You can also use the dbhtml-include href processing instruction to insert external files — both files containing plain text and files with markup content (including HTML content). More information For how-to documentation on inserting contents of external code files and other text files into output, see External code files. For guidelines on inserting contents of HTML files into output, see Inserting external HTML code. textdata.default.encoding string textdata.default.encoding Default encoding of external text files which are included using textdata element <xsl:param name="textdata.default.encoding"></xsl:param> Description Specifies the encoding of any external text files included using textdata element. This value is used only when you do not specify encoding by the appropriate attribute directly on textdata. An empty string is interpreted as the system default encoding. graphicsize.extension boolean graphicsize.extension Enable the getWidth()/getDepth() extension functions <xsl:param name="graphicsize.extension" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero (and if use.extensions is non-zero and if you're using a processor that supports extension functions), the getWidth and getDepth functions will be used to extract image sizes from graphics. graphicsize.use.img.src.path boolean graphicsize.use.img.src.path Prepend img.src.path before filenames passed to extension functions <xsl:param name="graphicsize.use.img.src.path" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero img.src.path parameter will be appended before filenames passed to extension functions for measuring image dimensions. use.extensions boolean use.extensions Enable extensions <xsl:param name="use.extensions" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, extensions may be used. Each extension is further controlled by its own parameter. But if use.extensions is zero, no extensions will be used. Automatic labelling chapter.autolabel list 0none 11,2,3... AA,B,C... aa,b,c... ii,ii,iii... II,II,III... chapter.autolabel Specifies the labeling format for Chapter titles <xsl:param name="chapter.autolabel" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then chapters will be numbered using the parameter value as the number format if the value matches one of the following: 1 or arabic Arabic numeration (1, 2, 3 ...). A or upperalpha Uppercase letter numeration (A, B, C ...). a or loweralpha Lowercase letter numeration (a, b, c ...). I or upperroman Uppercase roman numeration (I, II, III ...). i or lowerroman Lowercase roman letter numeration (i, ii, iii ...).

Any nonzero value other than the above will generate the default number format (upperalpha). part.autolabel list 0none 11,2,3... AA,B,C... aa,b,c... ii,ii,iii... II,II,III... part.autolabel Specifies the labeling format for Part titles <xsl:param name="part.autolabel">I</xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then parts will be numbered using the parameter value as the number format if the value matches one of the following: 1 or arabic Arabic numeration (1, 2, 3 ...). A or upperalpha Uppercase letter numeration (A, B, C ...). a or loweralpha Lowercase letter numeration (a, b, c ...). I or upperroman Uppercase roman numeration (I, II, III ...). i or lowerroman Lowercase roman letter numeration (i, ii, iii ...). Any nonzero value other than the above will generate the default number format (upperroman). reference.autolabel list 0none 11,2,3... AA,B,C... aa,b,c... ii,ii,iii... II,II,III... reference.autolabel Specifies the labeling format for Reference titles <xsl:param name="reference.autolabel">I</xsl:param> Description If non-zero, references will be numbered using the parameter value as the number format if the value matches one of the following: 1 or arabic Arabic numeration (1, 2, 3 ...).

II,II,III... preface.autolabel Specifices the labeling format for Preface titles <xsl:param name="preface.autolabel" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero then prefaces will be numbered using the parameter value as the number format if the value matches one of the following: 1 or arabic Arabic numeration (1, 2, 3 ...). A or upperalpha Uppercase letter numeration (A, B, C ...). a or loweralpha Lowercase letter numeration (a, b, c ...). I or upperroman Uppercase roman numeration (I, II, III ...). i or lowerroman Lowercase roman letter numeration (i, ii, iii ...). Any nonzero value other than the above will generate the default number format (arabic). qandadiv.autolabel boolean qandadiv.autolabel Are divisions in QAndASets enumerated? <xsl:param name="qandadiv.autolabel" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, unlabeled qandadivs will be enumerated. section.autolabel boolean section.autolabel Are sections enumerated? <xsl:param name="section.autolabel" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If true (non-zero), unlabeled sections will be enumerated. section.autolabel.max.depth integer section.autolabel.max.depth The deepest level of sections that are numbered. <xsl:param name="section.autolabel.max.depth">8</xsl:param> Description When section numbering is turned on by the section.autolabel parameter, then this parameter controls the depth of section nesting that is numbered. Sections nested to a level deeper than this value will not be numbered. section.label.includes.component.label boolean section.label.includes.component.label Do section labels include the component label? <xsl:param name="section.label.includes.component.label" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, section labels are prefixed with the label of the component that contains them. label.from.part boolean label.from.part Renumber components in each part? <xsl:param name="label.from.part" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If label.from.part is non-zero, then numbering of components — preface, chapter, appendix, and reference (when reference occurs at the component level) — is re-started within each part. If label.from.part is zero (the default), numbering of components is not re-started within each part; instead, components are numbered sequentially throughout each book, regardless of whether or not they occur within part instances. component.label.includes.part.label boolean component.label.includes.part.label Do component labels include the part label? <xsl:param name="component.label.includes.part.label" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, number labels for chapter, appendix, and other component elements are prefixed with the label of the part element that contains them. So you might see Chapter II.3 instead of Chapter 3. Also, the labels for formal elements such as table and figure will include the part label. If there is no part element container, then no prefix is generated. This feature is most useful when the label.from.part parameter is turned on. In that case, there would be more than one chapter 1, and the extra part label prefix will identify each chapter unambiguously. HTML html.base uri html.base An HTML base URI <xsl:param name="html.base"></xsl:param> Description If html.base is set, it is used for the base element in the head of the html documents. The parameter specifies the base URL for all relative URLs in the document. This is useful for dynamically served html where the base URI needs to be shifted. html.stylesheet.type string html.stylesheet.type The type of the stylesheet used in the generated HTML <xsl:param name="html.stylesheet.type">text/css</xsl:param> Description The type of the stylesheet to place in the HTML link tag. html.stylesheet string html.stylesheet Name of the stylesheet(s) to use in the generated HTML <xsl:param name="html.stylesheet"></xsl:param> Description The html.stylesheet parameter is either empty, indicating that no stylesheet link tag should be generated in the html output, or it is a list of one or more stylesheet files. Multiple stylesheets are space-delimited. If you need to reference a stylesheet URI that includes a space, encode it with %20. A separate html link element will be generated for each stylesheet in the order they are listed in the parameter. css.decoration boolean css.decoration Enable CSS decoration of elements <xsl:param name="css.decoration" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then html elements produced by the stylesheet may be decorated with style attributes. For example, the li tags produced for list items may include a fragment of CSS in the style attribute which sets the CSS property "list-style-type". spacing.paras boolean spacing.paras Insert additional <p> elements for spacing? <xsl:param name="spacing.paras" select="0"></xsl:param> Description When non-zero, additional, empty paragraphs are inserted in several contexts (for example, around informal figures), to create a more pleasing visual appearance in many browsers. emphasis.propagates.style boolean emphasis.propagates.style Pass emphasis role attribute through to HTML? <xsl:param name="emphasis.propagates.style" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the role attribute of emphasis elements will be passed through to the HTML as a class attribute on a span that surrounds the emphasis. para.propagates.style boolean para.propagates.style Pass para role attribute through to HTML? <xsl:param name="para.propagates.style" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If true, the role attribute of para elements will be passed through to the HTML as a class attribute on the p generated for the paragraph. phrase.propagates.style boolean phrase.propagates.style Pass phrase role attribute through to HTML? <xsl:param name="phrase.propagates.style" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the role attribute of phrase elements will be passed through to the HTML as a class attribute on a span that surrounds the phrase. entry.propagates.style boolean entry.propagates.style Pass entry role attribute through to HTML? <xsl:param name="entry.propagates.style" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If true, the role attribute of entry elements will be passed through to the HTML as a class attribute on the td or th generated for the table cell. html.longdesc boolean html.longdesc Should longdesc URIs be created? <xsl:param name="html.longdesc" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, HTML files will be created for the longdesc attribute. These files are created from the textobjects in mediaobjects and inlinemediaobject. html.longdesc.link boolean html.longdesc.link Should a link to the longdesc be included in the HTML? <xsl:param name="html.longdesc.link" select="$html.longdesc"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, links will be created to the HTML files created for the longdesc attribute. It makes no sense to enable this option without also enabling the html.longdesc parameter. make.valid.html boolean make.valid.html Attempt to make sure the HTML output is valid HTML <xsl:param name="make.valid.html" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If make.valid.html is true, the stylesheets take extra effort to ensure that the resulting HTML is valid. This may mean that some para tags are translated into HTML divs or that other substitutions occur. This parameter is different from html.cleanup because it changes the resulting markup; it does not use extension functions to manipulate result-tree-fragments and is therefore applicable to any XSLT processor. html.cleanup boolean html.cleanup Attempt to clean up the resulting HTML? <xsl:param name="html.cleanup" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, and if the EXSLT extensions are supported by your processor, the resulting HTML will be cleaned up. This improves the chances that the resulting HTML will be valid. It may also improve the formatting of some elements. This parameter is different from make.valid.html because it uses extension functions to manipulate result-tree-fragments. html.append string html.append Specifies content to append to HTML output <xsl:param name="html.append"></xsl:param> Description Specifies content to append to the end of HTML files output by the html/docbook.xsl stylesheet, after the closing <html> tag. You probably don’t want to set any value for this parameter; but if you do, the only value it should ever be set to is a newline character: 
 or 
 draft.mode list no yes maybe draft.mode Select draft mode <xsl:param name="draft.mode">no</xsl:param> Description Selects draft mode. If draft.mode is yes, the entire document will be treated as a draft. If it is no, the entire document will be treated as a final copy. If it is maybe, individual sections will be treated as draft or final independently, depending on how their status attribute is set. draft.watermark.image uri draft.watermark.image The URI of the image to be used for draft watermarks <xsl:param name="draft.watermark.image">images/draft.png</xsl:param> Description The image to be used for draft watermarks. generate.id.attributes boolean generate.id.attributes Generate ID attributes on container elements? <xsl:param name="generate.id.attributes" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the HTML stylesheet will generate ID attributes on containers. For example, the markup: <section id="foo"><title>Some Title</title> <para>Some para.</para> </section> might produce: <div class="section" id="foo"> <h2>Some Title</h2> <p>Some para.</p> </div> The alternative is to generate anchors: <div class="section"> <h2><a name="foo"></a>Some Title</h2> <p>Some para.</p> </div> Because the name attribute of the a element and the id attribute of other tags are both of type ID, producing both generates invalid documents. As of version 1.50, you can use this switch to control which type of identifier is generated. For backwards-compatibility, generating a anchors is preferred. Note: at present, this switch is incompletely implemented. Disabling ID attributes will suppress them, but enabling ID attributes will not suppress the anchors. generate.meta.abstract boolean generate.meta.abstract Generate HTML META element from abstract? <xsl:param name="generate.meta.abstract" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, document abstracts will be reproduced in the HTML head, with >meta name="description" content="..." make.clean.html boolean make.clean.html Make HTML conform to modern coding standards <xsl:param name="make.clean.html" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If make.clean.html is true, the stylesheets take extra effort to ensure that the resulting HTML is conforms to modern HTML coding standards. In addition to eliminating excessive and noncompliant coding, it moves presentation HTML coding to a CSS stylesheet. The resulting HTML is dependent on CSS for formatting, and so the stylesheet is capable of generating a supporting CSS file. The docbook.css.source and custom.css.source parameters control how a CSS file is generated. If you require your CSS to reside in the HTML head element, then the generate.css.header can be used to do that. The make.clean.html parameter is different from html.cleanup because the former changes the resulting markup; it does not use extension functions like the latter to manipulate result-tree-fragments, and is therefore applicable to any XSLT processor. If make.clean.html is set to zero (the default), then the stylesheet retains its original old style HTML formatting features. docbook.css.source string docbook.css.source Name of the default CSS input file <xsl:param name="docbook.css.source">docbook.css.xml</xsl:param> Description The docbook.css.source parameter specifies the name of the file containing the default DocBook CSS styles. Those styles are necessary when the make.clean.html parameter is nonzero. The file is a well-formed XML file that must consist of a single style root element that contains CSS styles as its text content. The default value of the parameter (and filename) is docbook.css.xml. The stylesheets ship with the default file. You can substitute your own and specify its path in this parameter. If docbook.css.source is not blank, and make.clean.html is nonzero, then the stylesheet takes the following actions: The stylesheet uses the XSLT document() function to open the file specified by the parameter and load it into a variable. The stylesheet forms an output pathname consisting of the value of the base.dir parameter (if it is set) and the value of docbook.css.source, with the .xml suffix stripped off. The stylesheet removes the style wrapper element and writes just the CSS text content to the output file. The stylesheet adds a link element to the HTML HEAD element to reference the external CSS stylesheet. For example: <link rel="stylesheet" href="docbook.css" type="text/css"> However, if the docbook.css.link parameter is set to zero, then no link is written for the default CSS file. That is useful if a custom CSS file will import the default CSS stylesheet to ensure proper cascading of styles. If the docbook.css.source parameter is changed from its default docbook.css.xml to blank, then no default CSS is generated. Likewise if the make.clean.html parameter is set to zero, then no default CSS is generated. The custom.css.source parameter can be used instead to generate a complete custom CSS file. You can use the generate.css.header parameter to instead write the CSS to each HTML HEAD element in a style tag instead of an external CSS file. docbook.css.link boolean docbook.css.link Insert a link referencing the default CSS stylesheet <xsl:param name="docbook.css.link" select="1"></xsl:param> Description The stylesheets are capable of generating a default CSS stylesheet file. The parameters make.clean.html and docbook.css.source control that feature. Normally if a default CSS file is generated, then the stylesheet inserts a link tag in the HTML HEAD element to reference it. However, you can omit that link reference if you set the docbook.css.link to zero (1 is the default). This parameter is useful when you want to import the default CSS into a custom CSS file generated using the custom.css.source parameter. custom.css.source string custom.css.source Name of a custom CSS input file <xsl:param name="custom.css.source"></xsl:param> Description The custom.css.source parameter enables you to add CSS styles to DocBook's HTML output. The parameter specifies the name of a file containing custom CSS styles. The file must be a well-formed XML file that consists of a single style root element that contains CSS styles as its text content. For example: <?xml version="1.0"?> <style> h2 { font-weight: bold; color: blue; } ... </style> The filename specified by the parameter should have a .xml filename suffix, although that is not required. The default value of this parameter is blank. If custom.css.source is not blank, then the stylesheet takes the following actions. These actions take place regardless of the value of the make.clean.html parameter. The stylesheet uses the XSLT document() function to open the file specified by the parameter and load it into a variable. The stylesheet forms an output pathname consisting of the value of the base.dir parameter (if it is set) and the value of custom.css.source, with the .xml suffix stripped off. The stylesheet removes the style wrapper element and writes just the CSS text content to the output file. The stylesheet adds a link element to the HTML HEAD element to reference this external CSS stylesheet. For example: <link rel="stylesheet" href="custom.css" type="text/css"> If the make.clean.html parameter is nonzero (the default is zero), and if the docbook.css.source parameter is not blank (the default is not blank), then the stylesheet will also generate a default CSS file and add a link tag to reference it. The link to the custom CSS comes after the link to the default, so it should cascade properly in most browsers. If you do not want two link tags, and instead want your custom CSS to import the default generated CSS file, then do the following: Add a line like the following to your custom CSS source file: @import url("docbook.css") Set the docbook.css.link parameter to zero. This will omit the link tag that references the default CSS file. If you set make.clean.html to nonzero but you do not want the default CSS generated, then also set the docbook.css.source parameter to blank. Then no default CSS will be generated, and so all CSS styles must come from your custom CSS file. You can use the generate.css.header parameter to instead write the CSS to each HTML HEAD element in a style tag instead of an external CSS file. generate.css.header boolean generate.css.header Insert generated CSS styles in HEAD element Description The stylesheets are capable of generating both default and custom CSS stylesheet files. The parameters make.clean.html, docbook.css.source, and custom.css.source control that feature. If you require that CSS styles reside in the HTML HEAD element instead of external CSS files, then set the generate.css.header parameter to nonzero (it is zero by default). Then instead of generating the CSS in external files, they are wrapped in style elements in the HEAD element of each HTML output file. XSLT Processing rootid string rootid Specify the root element to format <xsl:param name="rootid"></xsl:param> Description If rootid is not empty, it must be the value of an ID that occurs in the document being formatted. The entire document will be loaded and parsed, but formatting will begin at the element identified, rather than at the root. For example, this allows you to process only chapter 4 of a book. Because the entire document is available to the processor, automatic numbering, cross references, and other dependencies are correctly resolved. id.warnings boolean id.warnings Should warnings be generated for titled elements without IDs? <xsl:param name="id.warnings" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the stylesheet will issue a warning for any element (other than the root element) which has a title but does not have an ID. Meta/*Info and Titlepages inherit.keywords boolean inherit.keywords Inherit keywords from ancestor elements? <xsl:param name="inherit.keywords" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If inherit.keywords is non-zero, the keyword meta for each HTML head element will include all of the keywords from ancestor elements. Otherwise, only the keywords from the current section will be used. make.single.year.ranges boolean make.single.year.ranges Print single-year ranges (e.g., 1998-1999) <xsl:param name="make.single.year.ranges" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, year ranges that span a single year will be printed in range notation (1998-1999) instead of discrete notation (1998, 1999). make.year.ranges boolean make.year.ranges Collate copyright years into ranges? <xsl:param name="make.year.ranges" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, multiple copyright year elements will be collated into ranges. This works only if each year number is put into a separate year element. The copyright element permits multiple year elements. If a year element contains a dash or a comma, then that year element will not be merged into any range. author.othername.in.middle boolean author.othername.in.middle Is othername in author a middle name? <xsl:param name="author.othername.in.middle" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the othername of an author appears between the firstname and surname. Otherwise, othername is suppressed. blurb.on.titlepage.enabled boolean blurb.on.titlepage.enabled Display personblurb and authorblurb on title pages? <xsl:param name="blurb.on.titlepage.enabled" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, output from authorblurb and personblurb elements is displayed on title pages. If zero (the default), output from those elements is suppressed on title pages (unless you are using a titlepage customization that causes them to be included). contrib.inline.enabled boolean contrib.inline.enabled Display contrib output inline? <xsl:param name="contrib.inline.enabled">1</xsl:param> Description If non-zero (the default), output of the contrib element is displayed as inline content rather than as block content. editedby.enabled boolean editedby.enabled Display “Edited by” heading above editor name? <xsl:param name="editedby.enabled">1</xsl:param> Description If non-zero, a localized Edited by heading is displayed above editor names in output of the editor element. abstract.notitle.enabled boolean abstract.notitle.enabled Suppress display of abstract titles? <xsl:param name="abstract.notitle.enabled" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, in output of the abstract element on titlepages, display of the abstract title is suppressed. othercredit.like.author.enabled boolean othercredit.like.author.enabled Display othercredit in same style as author? <xsl:param name="othercredit.like.author.enabled">0</xsl:param> Description If non-zero, output of the othercredit element on titlepages is displayed in the same style as author and editor output. If zero then othercredit output is displayed using a style different than that of author and editor. generate.legalnotice.link boolean generate.legalnotice.link Write legalnotice to separate chunk and generate link? <xsl:param name="generate.legalnotice.link" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If the value of generate.legalnotice.link is non-zero, the stylesheet: writes the contents of legalnotice to a separate HTML file inserts a hyperlink to the legalnotice file adds (in the HTML head) either a single link or element or multiple link elements (depending on the value of the html.head.legalnotice.link.multiple parameter), with the value or values derived from the html.head.legalnotice.link.types parameter Otherwise, if generate.legalnotice.link is zero, legalnotice contents are rendered on the title page. The name of the separate HTML file is computed as follows: If a filename is given by the dbhtml filename processing instruction, that filename is used. If the legalnotice has an id/xml:id attribute, and if use.id.as.filename != 0, the filename is the concatenation of the id value and the value of the html.ext parameter. If the legalnotice does not have an id/xml:id attribute, or if use.id.as.filename = 0, the filename is the concatenation of "ln-", auto-generated id value, and html.ext value. generate.revhistory.link boolean generate.revhistory.link Write revhistory to separate chunk and generate link? <xsl:param name="generate.revhistory.link" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the contents of revhistory are written to a separate HTML file and a link to the file is generated. Otherwise, revhistory contents are rendered on the title page. The name of the separate HTML file is computed as follows: If a filename is given by the dbhtml filename processing instruction, that filename is used. If the revhistory has an id/xml:id attribute, and if use.id.as.filename != 0, the filename is the concatenation of the id value and the value of the html.ext parameter. If the revhistory does not have an id/xml:id attribute, or if use.id.as.filename = 0, the filename is the concatenation of "rh-", auto-generated id value, and html.ext value. html.head.legalnotice.link.types string html.head.legalnotice.link.types Specifies link types for legalnotice link in html head <xsl:param name="html.head.legalnotice.link.types">copyright</xsl:param> Description The value of html.head.legalnotice.link.types is a space-separated list of link types, as described in Section 6.12 of the HTML 4.01 specification. If the value of the generate.legalnotice.link parameter is non-zero, then the stylesheet generates (in the head section of the HTML source) either a single HTML link element or, if the value of the html.head.legalnotice.link.multiple is non-zero, one link element for each link type specified. Each link has the following attributes: a rel attribute whose value is derived from the value of html.head.legalnotice.link.types an href attribute whose value is set to the URL of the file containing the legalnotice a title attribute whose value is set to the title of the corresponding legalnotice (or a title programatically determined by the stylesheet) For example: <link rel="license" href="ln-id2524073.html" title="Legal Notice"> About the default value In an ideal world, the default value of html.head.legalnotice.link.types would probably be “license”, since the content of the DocBook legalnotice is typically license information, not copyright information. However, the default value is “copyright” for pragmatic reasons: because that’s among the set of “recognized link types” listed in Section 6.12 of the HTML 4.01 specification, and because certain browsers and browser extensions are preconfigured to recognize that value. html.head.legalnotice.link.multiple boolean html.head.legalnotice.link.multiple Generate multiple link instances in html head for legalnotice? <xsl:param name="html.head.legalnotice.link.multiple" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If html.head.legalnotice.link.multiple is non-zero and the value of html.head.legalnotice.link.types contains multiple link types, then the stylesheet generates (in the head section of the HTML source) one link element for each link type specified. For example, if the value of html.head.legalnotice.link.types is “copyright license”: <link rel="copyright" href="ln-id2524073.html" title="Legal Notice"> <link rel="license" href="ln-id2524073.html" title="Legal Notice"> Otherwise, the stylesheet generates generates a single link instance; for example: <link rel="copyright license" href="ln-id2524073.html" title="Legal Notice"> Reference Pages funcsynopsis.decoration boolean funcsynopsis.decoration Decorate elements of a funcsynopsis? <xsl:param name="funcsynopsis.decoration" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, elements of the funcsynopsis will be decorated (e.g. rendered as bold or italic text). The decoration is controlled by templates that can be redefined in a customization layer. funcsynopsis.style list ansi kr funcsynopsis.style What style of funcsynopsis should be generated? <xsl:param name="funcsynopsis.style">kr</xsl:param> Description If funcsynopsis.style is ansi, ANSI-style function synopses are generated for a funcsynopsis, otherwise K&R-style function synopses are generated. function.parens boolean function.parens Generate parens after a function? <xsl:param name="function.parens" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the formatting of a function element will include generated parentheses. refentry.generate.name boolean refentry.generate.name Output NAME header before refnames? <xsl:param name="refentry.generate.name" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, a "NAME" section title is output before the list of refnames. This parameter and refentry.generate.title are mutually exclusive. This means that if you change this parameter to zero, you should set refentry.generate.title to non-zero unless you want get quite strange output. refentry.generate.title boolean refentry.generate.title Output title before refnames? <xsl:param name="refentry.generate.title" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the reference page title or first name is output before the list of refnames. This parameter and refentry.generate.name are mutually exclusive. This means that if you change this parameter to non-zero, you should set refentry.generate.name to zero unless you want get quite strange output. refentry.xref.manvolnum boolean refentry.xref.manvolnum Output manvolnum as part of refentry cross-reference? <xsl:param name="refentry.xref.manvolnum" select="1"></xsl:param> Description if non-zero, the manvolnum is used when cross-referencing refentrys, either with xref or citerefentry. citerefentry.link boolean citerefentry.link Generate URL links when cross-referencing RefEntrys? <xsl:param name="citerefentry.link" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, a web link will be generated, presumably to an online man->HTML gateway. The text of the link is generated by the generate.citerefentry.link template. refentry.separator boolean refentry.separator Generate a separator between consecutive RefEntry elements? <xsl:param name="refentry.separator" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If true, a separator will be generated between consecutive reference pages. refclass.suppress boolean refclass.suppress Suppress display of refclass contents? <xsl:param name="refclass.suppress" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If the value of refclass.suppress is non-zero, then display of refclass contents is suppressed in output. Tables default.table.width length default.table.width The default width of tables <xsl:param name="default.table.width"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, this value will be used for the width attribute on tables that do not specify an alternate width (with the dbhtml table-width or dbfo table-width processing instruction). nominal.table.width length nominal.table.width The (absolute) nominal width of tables <xsl:param name="nominal.table.width">6in</xsl:param> Description In order to convert CALS column widths into HTML column widths, it is sometimes necessary to have an absolute table width to use for conversion of mixed absolute and relative widths. This value must be an absolute length (not a percentage). table.borders.with.css boolean table.borders.with.css Use CSS to specify table, row, and cell borders? <xsl:param name="table.borders.with.css" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, CSS will be used to draw table borders. table.cell.border.style list none solid dotted dashed double groove ridge inset outset solid table.cell.border.style Specifies the border style of table cells <xsl:param name="table.cell.border.style">solid</xsl:param> Description Specifies the border style of table cells. To control properties of cell borders in HTML output, you must also turn on the table.borders.with.css parameter. table.cell.border.thickness length table.cell.border.thickness Specifies the thickness of table cell borders <xsl:param name="table.cell.border.thickness">0.5pt</xsl:param> Description If non-zero, specifies the thickness of borders on table cells. The units are points. See CSS To control properties of cell borders in HTML output, you must also turn on the table.borders.with.css parameter. table.cell.border.color color table.cell.border.color Specifies the border color of table cells <xsl:param name="table.cell.border.color"></xsl:param> Description Set the color of table cell borders. If non-zero, the value is used for the border coloration. See CSS. A color is either a keyword or a numerical RGB specification. Keywords are aqua, black, blue, fuchsia, gray, green, lime, maroon, navy, olive, orange, purple, red, silver, teal, white, and yellow. To control properties of cell borders in HTML output, you must also turn on the table.borders.with.css parameter. table.frame.border.style list none solid dotted dashed double groove ridge inset outset solid table.frame.border.style Specifies the border style of table frames <xsl:param name="table.frame.border.style">solid</xsl:param> Description Specifies the border style of table frames. table.frame.border.thickness length table.frame.border.thickness Specifies the thickness of the frame border <xsl:param name="table.frame.border.thickness">0.5pt</xsl:param> Description Specifies the thickness of the border on the table's frame. table.frame.border.color color table.frame.border.color Specifies the border color of table frames <xsl:param name="table.frame.border.color"></xsl:param> Description Specifies the border color of table frames. default.table.frame string default.table.frame The default framing of tables <xsl:param name="default.table.frame">all</xsl:param> Description This value will be used when there is no frame attribute on the table. html.cellspacing integer html.cellspacing Default value for cellspacing in HTML tables <xsl:param name="html.cellspacing"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, this value will be used as the default cellspacing value in HTML tables. nn for pixels or nn% for percentage length. E.g. 5 or 5% html.cellpadding integer html.cellpadding Default value for cellpadding in HTML tables <xsl:param name="html.cellpadding"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, this value will be used as the default cellpadding value in HTML tables. nn for pixels or nn% for percentage length. E.g. 5 or 5% QAndASet qanda.defaultlabel list number qanda none qanda.defaultlabel Sets the default for defaultlabel on QandASet. <xsl:param name="qanda.defaultlabel">number</xsl:param> Description If no defaultlabel attribute is specified on a qandaset, this value is used. It is generally one of the legal values for the defaultlabel attribute (none, number or qanda), or one of the additional stylesheet-specific values (qnumber or qnumberanda). The default value is 'number'. The values are rendered as follows: qanda questions are labeled "Q:" and answers are labeled "A:". number The questions are enumerated and the answers are not labeled. qnumber The questions are labeled "Q:" followed by a number, and answers are not labeled. When sections are numbered, adding a label to the number distinguishes the question numbers from the section numbers. This value is not allowed in the defaultlabel attribute of a qandaset element. qnumberanda The questions are labeled "Q:" followed by a number, and the answers are labeled "A:". When sections are numbered, adding a label to the number distinguishes the question numbers from the section numbers. This value is not allowed in the defaultlabel attribute of a qandaset element. none No distinguishing label precedes Questions or Answers. qanda.inherit.numeration boolean qanda.inherit.numeration Does enumeration of QandASet components inherit the numeration of parent elements? <xsl:param name="qanda.inherit.numeration" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, numbered qandadiv elements and question and answer inherit the enumeration of the ancestors of the qandaset. qanda.in.toc boolean qanda.in.toc Should qandaentry questions appear in the document table of contents? <xsl:param name="qanda.in.toc" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If true (non-zero), then the generated table of contents for a document will include qandaset titles, qandadiv titles, and question elements. The default value (zero) excludes them from the TOC. This parameter does not affect any tables of contents that may be generated inside a qandaset or qandadiv. qanda.nested.in.toc boolean qanda.nested.in.toc Should nested answer/qandaentry instances appear in TOC? <xsl:param name="qanda.nested.in.toc" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, instances of qandaentry that are children of answer elements are shown in the TOC. Linking target.database.document uri target.database.document Name of master database file for resolving olinks <xsl:param name="target.database.document">olinkdb.xml</xsl:param> Description To resolve olinks between documents, the stylesheets use a master database document that identifies the target datafiles for all the documents within the scope of the olinks. This parameter value is the URI of the master document to be read during processing to resolve olinks. The default value is olinkdb.xml. The data structure of the file is defined in the targetdatabase.dtd DTD. The database file provides the high level elements to record the identifiers, locations, and relationships of documents. The cross reference data for individual documents is generally pulled into the database using system entity references or XIncludes. See also targets.filename. targets.filename string targets.filename Name of cross reference targets data file <xsl:param name="targets.filename">target.db</xsl:param> Description In order to resolve olinks efficiently, the stylesheets can generate an external data file containing information about all potential cross reference endpoints in a document. This parameter lets you change the name of the generated file from the default name target.db. The name must agree with that used in the target database used to resolve olinks during processing. See also target.database.document. olink.base.uri uri olink.base.uri Base URI used in olink hrefs <xsl:param name="olink.base.uri"></xsl:param> Description When cross reference data is collected for resolving olinks, it may be necessary to prepend a base URI to each target's href. This parameter lets you set that base URI when cross reference data is collected. This feature is needed when you want to link to a document that is processed without chunking. The output filename for such a document is not known to the XSL stylesheet; the only target information consists of fragment identifiers such as #idref. To enable the resolution of olinks between documents, you should pass the name of the HTML output file as the value of this parameter. Then the hrefs recorded in the cross reference data collection look like outfile.html#idref, which can be reached as links from other documents. use.local.olink.style boolean use.local.olink.style Process olinks using xref style of current document <xsl:param name="use.local.olink.style" select="0"></xsl:param> Description When cross reference data is collected for use by olinks, the data for each potential target includes one field containing a completely assembled cross reference string, as if it were an xref generated in that document. Other fields record the separate title, number, and element name of each target. When an olink is formed to a target from another document, the olink resolves to that preassembled string by default. If the use.local.olink.style parameter is set to non-zero, then instead the cross reference string is formed again from the target title, number, and element name, using the stylesheet processing the targeting document. Then olinks will match the xref style in the targeting document rather than in the target document. If both documents are processed with the same stylesheet, then the results will be the same. current.docid string current.docid targetdoc identifier for the document being processed <xsl:param name="current.docid"></xsl:param> Description When olinks between documents are resolved for HTML output, the stylesheet can compute the relative path between the current document and the target document. The stylesheet needs to know the targetdoc identifiers for both documents, as they appear in the target.database.document database file. This parameter passes to the stylesheet the targetdoc identifier of the current document, since that identifier does not appear in the document itself. This parameter can also be used for print output. If an olink's targetdoc id differs from the current.docid, then the stylesheet can append the target document's title to the generated olink text. That identifies to the reader that the link is to a different document, not the current document. See also olink.doctitle to enable that feature. olink.doctitle list no yes maybe olink.doctitle show the document title for external olinks? <xsl:param name="olink.doctitle">no</xsl:param> Description When olinks between documents are resolved, the generated text may not make it clear that the reference is to another document. It is possible for the stylesheets to append the other document's title to external olinks. For this to happen, two parameters must be set. This olink.doctitle parameter should be set to either yes or maybe to enable this feature. And you should also set the current.docid parameter to the document id for the document currently being processed for output. Then if an olink's targetdoc id differs from the current.docid value, the stylesheet knows that it is a reference to another document and can append the target document's title to the generated olink text. The text for the target document's title is copied from the olink database from the ttl element of the top-level div for that document. If that ttl element is missing or empty, no title is output. The supported values for olink.doctitle are: yes Always insert the title to the target document if it is not the current document. no Never insert the title to the target document, even if requested in an xrefstyle attribute. maybe Only insert the title to the target document, if requested in an xrefstyle attribute. An xrefstyle attribute may override the global setting for individual olinks. The following values are supported in an xrefstyle attribute using the select: syntax: docname Insert the target document name for this olink using the docname gentext template, but only if the value of olink.doctitle is not no. docnamelong Insert the target document name for this olink using the docnamelong gentext template, but only if the value of olink.doctitle is not no. nodocname Omit the target document name even if the value of olink.doctitle is yes. Another way of inserting the target document name for a single olink is to employ an xrefstyle attribute using the template: syntax. The %o placeholder (the letter o, not zero) in such a template will be filled in with the target document's title when it is processed. This will occur regardless of the value of olink.doctitle. Note that prior to version 1.66 of the XSL stylesheets, the allowed values for this parameter were 0 and 1. Those values are still supported and mapped to 'no' and 'yes', respectively. olink.debug boolean olink.debug Turn on debugging messages for olinks <xsl:param name="olink.debug" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then each olink will generate several messages about how it is being resolved during processing. This is useful when an olink does not resolve properly and the standard error messages are not sufficient to find the problem. You may need to read through the olink XSL templates to understand the context for some of the debug messages. olink.properties attribute set olink.properties Properties associated with the cross-reference text of an olink. <xsl:attribute-set name="olink.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="show-destination">replace</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This attribute set is applied to the fo:basic-link element of an olink. It is not applied to the optional page number or optional title of the external document. olink.lang.fallback.sequence string olink.lang.fallback.sequence look up translated documents if olink not found? <xsl:param name="olink.lang.fallback.sequence"></xsl:param> Description This parameter defines a list of lang values to search among to resolve olinks. Normally an olink tries to resolve to a document in the same language as the olink itself. The language of an olink is determined by its nearest ancestor element with a lang attribute, otherwise the value of the l10n.gentext.default.lang parameter. An olink database can contain target data for the same document in multiple languages. Each set of data has the same value for the targetdoc attribute in the document element in the database, but with a different lang attribute value. When an olink is being resolved, the target is first sought in the document with the same language as the olink. If no match is found there, then this parameter is consulted for additional languages to try. The olink.lang.fallback.sequence must be a whitespace separated list of lang values to try. The first one with a match in the olink database is used. The default value is empty. For example, a document might be written in German and contain an olink with targetdoc="adminguide". When the document is processed, the processor first looks for a target dataset in the olink database starting with: <document targetdoc="adminguide" lang="de">. If there is no such element, then the olink.lang.fallback.sequence parameter is consulted. If its value is, for example, fr en, then the processor next looks for targetdoc="adminguide" lang="fr", and then for targetdoc="adminguide" lang="en". If there is still no match, it looks for targetdoc="adminguide" with no lang attribute. This parameter is useful when a set of documents is only partially translated, or is in the process of being translated. If a target of an olink has not yet been translated, then this parameter permits the processor to look for the document in other languages. This assumes the reader would rather have a link to a document in a different language than to have a broken link. insert.olink.page.number list no yes maybe insert.olink.page.number Turns page numbers in olinks on and off <xsl:param name="insert.olink.page.number">no</xsl:param> Description The value of this parameter determines if cross references made between documents with olink will include page number citations. In most cases this is only applicable to references in printed output. The parameter has three possible values. no No page number references will be generated for olinks. yes Page number references will be generated for all olink references. The style of page reference may be changed if an xrefstyle attribute is used. maybe Page number references will not be generated for an olink element unless it has an xrefstyle attribute whose value specifies a page reference. Olinks that point to targets within the same document are treated as xrefs, and controlled by the insert.xref.page.number parameter. Page number references for olinks to external documents can only be inserted if the information exists in the olink database. This means each olink target element (div or obj) must have a page attribute whose value is its page number in the target document. The XSL stylesheets are not able to extract that information during processing because pages have not yet been created in XSLT transformation. Only the XSL-FO processor knows what page each element is placed on. Therefore some postprocessing must take place to populate page numbers in the olink database. insert.olink.pdf.frag boolean insert.olink.pdf.frag Add fragment identifiers for links into PDF files <xsl:param name="insert.olink.pdf.frag" select="0"></xsl:param> Description The value of this parameter determines whether the cross reference URIs to PDF documents made with olink will include fragment identifiers. When forming a URI to link to a PDF document, a fragment identifier (typically a '#' followed by an id value) appended to the PDF filename can be used by the PDF viewer to open the PDF file to a location within the document instead of the first page. However, not all PDF files have id values embedded in them, and not all PDF viewers can handle fragment identifiers. If insert.olink.pdf.frag is set to a non-zero value, then any olink targeting a PDF file will have the fragment identifier appended to the URI. The URI is formed by concatenating the value of the olink.base.uri parameter, the value of the baseuri attribute from the document element in the olink database with the matching targetdoc value, and the value of the href attribute for the targeted element in the olink database. The href attribute contains the fragment identifier. If insert.olink.pdf.frag is set to zero (the default value), then the href attribute from the olink database is not appended to PDF olinks, so the fragment identifier is left off. A PDF olink is any olink for which the baseuri attribute from the matching document element in the olink database ends with '.pdf'. Any other olinks will still have the fragment identifier added. prefer.internal.olink boolean prefer.internal.olink Prefer a local olink reference to an external reference <xsl:param name="prefer.internal.olink" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If you are re-using XML content modules in multiple documents, you may want to redirect some of your olinks. This parameter permits you to redirect an olink to the current document. For example: you are writing documentation for a product, which includes 3 manuals: a little installation booklet (booklet.xml), a user guide (user.xml), and a reference manual (reference.xml). All 3 documents begin with the same introduction section (intro.xml) that contains a reference to the customization section (custom.xml) which is included in both user.xml and reference.xml documents. How do you write the link to custom.xml in intro.xml so that it is interpreted correctly in all 3 documents? If you use xref, it will fail in user.xml. If you use olink (pointing to reference.xml), the reference in user.xml will point to the customization section of the reference manual, while it is actually available in user.xml. If you set the prefer.internal.olink parameter to a non-zero value, then the processor will first look in the olink database for the olink's targetptr attribute value in document matching the current.docid parameter value. If it isn't found there, then it tries the document in the database with the targetdoc value that matches the olink's targetdoc attribute. This feature permits an olink reference to resolve to the current document if there is an element with an id matching the olink's targetptr value. The current document's olink data must be included in the target database for this to work. There is a potential for incorrect links if the same id attribute value is used for different content in different documents. Some of your olinks may be redirected to the current document when they shouldn't be. It is not possible to control individual olink instances. link.mailto.url string link.mailto.url Mailto URL for the LINK REL=made HTML HEAD element <xsl:param name="link.mailto.url"></xsl:param> Description If not the empty string, this address will be used for the rel=made link element in the html head ulink.target string ulink.target The HTML anchor target for ULinks <xsl:param name="ulink.target">_top</xsl:param> Description If ulink.target is non-zero, its value will be used for the target attribute on anchors generated for ulinks. olink.fragid string olink.fragid Names the fragment identifier portion of an OLink resolver query <xsl:param name="olink.fragid">fragid=</xsl:param> Description The fragment identifier portion of an olink target. olink.outline.ext string olink.outline.ext The extension of OLink outline files <xsl:param name="olink.outline.ext">.olink</xsl:param> Description The extension to be expected for OLink outline files Bob has this parameter as dead. Please don't use olink.pubid string olink.pubid Names the public identifier portion of an OLink resolver query <xsl:param name="olink.pubid">pubid</xsl:param> Description olink.sysid string olink.sysid Names the system identifier portion of an OLink resolver query <xsl:param name="olink.sysid">sysid</xsl:param> Description FIXME olink.resolver string olink.resolver The root name of the OLink resolver (usually a script) <xsl:param name="olink.resolver">/cgi-bin/olink</xsl:param> Description FIXME: Cross References collect.xref.targets list no yes only collect.xref.targets Controls whether cross reference data is collected <xsl:param name="collect.xref.targets">no</xsl:param> Description In order to resolve olinks efficiently, the stylesheets can generate an external data file containing information about all potential cross reference endpoints in a document. This parameter determines whether the collection process is run when the document is processed by the stylesheet. The default value is no, which means the data file is not generated during processing. The other choices are yes, which means the data file is created and the document is processed for output, and only, which means the data file is created but the document is not processed for output. See also targets.filename. insert.xref.page.number list no yes maybe insert.xref.page.number Turns page numbers in xrefs on and off <xsl:param name="insert.xref.page.number">no</xsl:param> Description The value of this parameter determines if cross references (xrefs) in printed output will include page number citations. It has three possible values. no No page number references will be generated. yes Page number references will be generated for all xref elements. The style of page reference may be changed if an xrefstyle attribute is used. maybe Page number references will not be generated for an xref element unless it has an xrefstyle attribute whose value specifies a page reference. use.role.as.xrefstyle boolean use.role.as.xrefstyle Use role attribute for xrefstyle on xref? <xsl:param name="use.role.as.xrefstyle" select="1"></xsl:param> Description In DocBook documents that conform to a schema older than V4.3, this parameter allows role to serve the purpose of specifying the cross reference style. If non-zero, the role attribute on xref will be used to select the cross reference style. In DocBook V4.3, the xrefstyle attribute was added for this purpose. If the xrefstyle attribute is present, role will be ignored, regardless of the setting of this parameter. Example The following small stylesheet shows how to configure the stylesheets to make use of the cross reference style: <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:import href="../xsl/html/docbook.xsl"/> <xsl:output method="html"/> <xsl:param name="local.l10n.xml" select="document('')"/> <l:i18n xmlns:l="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/xmlns/l10n/1.0"> <l:l10n xmlns:l="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/xmlns/l10n/1.0" language="en"> <l:context name="xref"> <l:template name="chapter" style="title" text="Chapter %n, %t"/> <l:template name="chapter" text="Chapter %n"/> </l:context> </l:l10n> </l:i18n> </xsl:stylesheet> With this stylesheet, the cross references in the following document: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.2//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd"> <book id="book"><title>Book</title> <preface> <title>Preface</title> <para>Normal: <xref linkend="ch1"/>.</para> <para>Title: <xref xrefstyle="title" linkend="ch1"/>.</para> </preface> <chapter id="ch1"> <title>First Chapter</title> <para>Irrelevant.</para> </chapter> </book> will appear as: Normal: Chapter 1. Title: Chapter 1, First Chapter. xref.with.number.and.title boolean xref.with.number.and.title Use number and title in cross references <xsl:param name="xref.with.number.and.title" select="1"></xsl:param> Description A cross reference may include the number (for example, the number of an example or figure) and the title which is a required child of some targets. This parameter inserts both the relevant number as well as the title into the link. xref.label-page.separator string xref.label-page.separator Punctuation or space separating label from page number in xref <xsl:param name="xref.label-page.separator"><xsl:text> </xsl:text></xsl:param> Description This parameter allows you to control the punctuation of certain types of generated cross reference text. When cross reference text is generated for an xref or olink element using an xrefstyle attribute that makes use of the select: feature, and the selected components include both label and page but no title, then the value of this parameter is inserted between label and page number in the output. If a title is included, then other separators are used. xref.label-title.separator string xref.label-title.separator Punctuation or space separating label from title in xref <xsl:param name="xref.label-title.separator">: </xsl:param> Description This parameter allows you to control the punctuation of certain types of generated cross reference text. When cross reference text is generated for an xref or olink element using an xrefstyle attribute that makes use of the select: feature, and the selected components include both label and title, then the value of this parameter is inserted between label and title in the output. xref.title-page.separator string xref.title-page.separator Punctuation or space separating title from page number in xref <xsl:param name="xref.title-page.separator"><xsl:text> </xsl:text></xsl:param> Description This parameter allows you to control the punctuation of certain types of generated cross reference text. When cross reference text is generated for an xref or olink element using an xrefstyle attribute that makes use of the select: feature, and the selected components include both title and page number, then the value of this parameter is inserted between title and page number in the output. Lists segmentedlist.as.table boolean segmentedlist.as.table Format segmented lists as tables? <xsl:param name="segmentedlist.as.table" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, segmentedlists will be formatted as tables. variablelist.as.table boolean variablelist.as.table Format variablelists as tables? <xsl:param name="variablelist.as.table" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, variablelists will be formatted as tables. A processing instruction exists to specify a particular width for the column containing the terms: dbhtml term-width=".25in" You can override this setting with a processing instruction as the child of variablelist: dbhtml list-presentation="table" or dbhtml list-presentation="list". This parameter only applies to the HTML transformations. In the FO case, proper list markup is robust enough to handle the formatting. But see also variablelist.as.blocks. <variablelist> <?dbhtml list-presentation="table"?> <?dbhtml term-width="1.5in"?> <?dbfo list-presentation="list"?> <?dbfo term-width="1in"?> <varlistentry> <term>list</term> <listitem> <para> Formatted as a table even if variablelist.as.table is set to 0. </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> variablelist.term.separator string variablelist.term.separator Text to separate terms within a multi-term varlistentry <xsl:param name="variablelist.term.separator">, </xsl:param> Description When a varlistentry contains multiple term elements, the string specified in the value of the variablelist.term.separator parameter is placed after each term except the last. To generate a line break between multiple terms in a varlistentry, set a non-zero value for the variablelist.term.break.after parameter. If you do so, you may also want to set the value of the variablelist.term.separator parameter to an empty string (to suppress rendering of the default comma and space after each term). variablelist.term.break.after boolean variablelist.term.break.after Generate line break after each term within a multi-term varlistentry? <xsl:param name="variablelist.term.break.after">0</xsl:param> Description Set a non-zero value for the variablelist.term.break.after parameter to generate a line break between terms in a multi-term varlistentry. If you set a non-zero value for variablelist.term.break.after, you may also want to set the value of the variablelist.term.separator parameter to an empty string (to suppress rendering of the default comma and space after each term). Bibliography bibliography.style list normal iso690 bibliography.style Style used for formatting of biblioentries. <xsl:param name="bibliography.style">normal</xsl:param> Description Currently only normal and iso690 styles are supported. In order to use ISO690 style to the full extent you might need to use additional markup described on the following WiKi page. biblioentry.item.separator string biblioentry.item.separator Text to separate bibliography entries <xsl:param name="biblioentry.item.separator">. </xsl:param> Description Text to separate bibliography entries bibliography.collection string bibliography.collection Name of the bibliography collection file <xsl:param name="bibliography.collection">http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/bibliography/bibliography.xml</xsl:param> Description Maintaining bibliography entries across a set of documents is tedious, time consuming, and error prone. It makes much more sense, usually, to store all of the bibliography entries in a single place and simply extract the ones you need in each document. That's the purpose of the bibliography.collection parameter. To setup a global bibliography database, follow these steps: First, create a stand-alone bibliography document that contains all of the documents that you wish to reference. Make sure that each bibliography entry (whether you use biblioentry or bibliomixed) has an ID. My global bibliography, ~/bibliography.xml begins like this: <!DOCTYPE bibliography PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd"> <bibliography><title>References</title> <bibliomixed id="xml-rec"><abbrev>XML 1.0</abbrev>Tim Bray, Jean Paoli, C. M. Sperberg-McQueen, and Eve Maler, editors. <citetitle><ulink url="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml">Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 Second Edition</ulink></citetitle>. World Wide Web Consortium, 2000. </bibliomixed> <bibliomixed id="xml-names"><abbrev>Namespaces</abbrev>Tim Bray, Dave Hollander, and Andrew Layman, editors. <citetitle><ulink url="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/">Namespaces in XML</ulink></citetitle>. World Wide Web Consortium, 1999. </bibliomixed>  </bibliography> When you create a bibliography in your document, simply provide empty bibliomixed entries for each document that you wish to cite. Make sure that these elements have the same ID as the corresponding real entry in your global bibliography. For example: <bibliography><title>Bibliography</title> <bibliomixed id="xml-rec"/> <bibliomixed id="xml-names"/> <bibliomixed id="DKnuth86">Donald E. Knuth. <citetitle>Computers and Typesetting: Volume B, TeX: The Program</citetitle>. Addison-Wesley, 1986. ISBN 0-201-13437-3. </bibliomixed> <bibliomixed id="relaxng"/> </bibliography> Note that it's perfectly acceptable to mix entries from your global bibliography with normal entries. You can use xref or other elements to cross-reference your bibliography entries in exactly the same way you do now. Finally, when you are ready to format your document, simply set the bibliography.collection parameter (in either a customization layer or directly through your processor's interface) to point to your global bibliography. The stylesheets will format the bibliography in your document as if all of the entries referenced appeared there literally. bibliography.numbered boolean bibliography.numbered Should bibliography entries be numbered? <xsl:param name="bibliography.numbered" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero bibliography entries will be numbered Glossary glossterm.auto.link boolean glossterm.auto.link Generate links from glossterm to glossentry automatically? <xsl:param name="glossterm.auto.link" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, links from inline glossterms to the corresponding glossentry elements in a glossary or glosslist will be automatically generated. This is useful when your glossterms are consistent and you don't want to add links manually. The automatic link generation feature is not used on glossterm elements that have a linkend attribute. firstterm.only.link boolean firstterm.only.link Does automatic glossterm linking only apply to firstterms? <xsl:param name="firstterm.only.link" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, only firstterms will be automatically linked to the glossary. If glossary linking is not enabled, this parameter has no effect. glossary.collection string glossary.collection Name of the glossary collection file <xsl:param name="glossary.collection"></xsl:param> Description Glossaries maintained independently across a set of documents are likely to become inconsistent unless considerable effort is expended to keep them in sync. It makes much more sense, usually, to store all of the glossary entries in a single place and simply extract the ones you need in each document. That's the purpose of the glossary.collection parameter. To setup a global glossary database, follow these steps: Setting Up the Glossary Database First, create a stand-alone glossary document that contains all of the entries that you wish to reference. Make sure that each glossary entry has an ID. Here's an example glossary: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!DOCTYPE glossary PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd"> <glossary> <glossaryinfo> <editor><firstname>Eric</firstname><surname>Raymond</surname></editor> <title>Jargon File 4.2.3 (abridged)</title> <releaseinfo>Just some test data</releaseinfo> </glossaryinfo> <glossdiv><title>0</title> <glossentry> <glossterm>0</glossterm> <glossdef> <para>Numeric zero, as opposed to the letter `O' (the 15th letter of the English alphabet). In their unmodified forms they look a lot alike, and various kluges invented to make them visually distinct have compounded the confusion. If your zero is center-dotted and letter-O is not, or if letter-O looks almost rectangular but zero looks more like an American football stood on end (or the reverse), you're probably looking at a modern character display (though the dotted zero seems to have originated as an option on IBM 3270 controllers). If your zero is slashed but letter-O is not, you're probably looking at an old-style ASCII graphic set descended from the default typewheel on the venerable ASR-33 Teletype (Scandinavians, for whom /O is a letter, curse this arrangement). (Interestingly, the slashed zero long predates computers; Florian Cajori's monumental "A History of Mathematical Notations" notes that it was used in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries.) If letter-O has a slash across it and the zero does not, your display is tuned for a very old convention used at IBM and a few other early mainframe makers (Scandinavians curse <emphasis>this</emphasis> arrangement even more, because it means two of their letters collide). Some Burroughs/Unisys equipment displays a zero with a <emphasis>reversed</emphasis> slash. Old CDC computers rendered letter O as an unbroken oval and 0 as an oval broken at upper right and lower left. And yet another convention common on early line printers left zero unornamented but added a tail or hook to the letter-O so that it resembled an inverted Q or cursive capital letter-O (this was endorsed by a draft ANSI standard for how to draw ASCII characters, but the final standard changed the distinguisher to a tick-mark in the upper-left corner). Are we sufficiently confused yet?</para> </glossdef> </glossentry> <glossentry> <glossterm>1TBS</glossterm> <glossdef> <para role="accidence"> <phrase role="pronounce"></phrase> <phrase role="partsofspeach">n</phrase> </para> <para>The "One True Brace Style"</para> <glossseealso>indent style</glossseealso> </glossdef> </glossentry>  </glossdiv>  </glossary> Marking Up Glossary Terms That takes care of the glossary database, now you have to get the entries into your document. Unlike bibliography entries, which can be empty, creating placeholder glossary entries would be very tedious. So instead, support for glossary.collection relies on implicit linking. In your source document, simply use firstterm and glossterm to identify the terms you wish to have included in the glossary. The stylesheets assume that you will either set the baseform attribute correctly, or that the content of the element exactly matches a term in your glossary. If you're using a glossary.collection, don't make explicit links on the terms in your document. So, in your document, you might write things like this: <para>This is dummy text, without any real meaning. The point is simply to reference glossary terms like <glossterm>0</glossterm> and the <firstterm baseform="1TBS">One True Brace Style (1TBS)</firstterm>. The <glossterm>1TBS</glossterm>, as you can probably imagine, is a nearly religious issue.</para> If you set the firstterm.only.link parameter, only the terms marked with firstterm will be links. Otherwise, all the terms will be linked. Marking Up the Glossary The glossary itself has to be identified for the stylesheets. For lack of a better choice, the role is used. To identify the glossary as the target for automatic processing, set the role to auto. The title of this glossary (and any other information from the glossaryinfo that's rendered by your stylesheet) will be displayed, but the entries will come from the database. Unfortunately, the glossary can't be empty, so you must put in at least one glossentry. The content of this entry is irrelevant, it will not be rendered: <glossary role="auto"> <glossentry> <glossterm>Irrelevant</glossterm> <glossdef> <para>If you can see this, the document was processed incorrectly. Use the <parameter>glossary.collection</parameter> parameter.</para> </glossdef> </glossentry> </glossary> What about glossary divisions? If your glossary database has glossary divisions and your automatic glossary contains at least one glossdiv, the automic glossary will have divisions. If the glossdiv is missing from either location, no divisions will be rendered. Glossary entries (and divisions, if appropriate) in the glossary will occur in precisely the order they occur in your database. Formatting the Document Finally, when you are ready to format your document, simply set the glossary.collection parameter (in either a customization layer or directly through your processor's interface) to point to your global glossary. The stylesheets will format the glossary in your document as if all of the entries implicilty referenced appeared there literally. Limitations Glossary cross-references within the glossary are not supported. For example, this will not work: <glossentry> <glossterm>gloss-1</glossterm> <glossdef><para>A description that references <glossterm>gloss-2</glossterm>.</para> <glossseealso>gloss-2</glossseealso> </glossdef> </glossentry> If you put glossary cross-references in your glossary that way, you'll get the cryptic error: Warning: glossary.collection specified, but there are 0 automatic glossaries. Instead, you must do two things: Markup your glossary using glossseealso: <glossentry> <glossterm>gloss-1</glossterm> <glossdef><para>A description that references <glossterm>gloss-2</glossterm>.</para> <glossseealso>gloss-2</glossseealso> </glossdef> </glossentry> Make sure there is at least one glossterm reference to gloss-2 in your document. The easiest way to do that is probably within a remark in your automatic glossary: <glossary role="auto"> <remark>Make sure there's a reference to <glossterm>gloss-2</glossterm>.</remark> <glossentry> <glossterm>Irrelevant</glossterm> <glossdef> <para>If you can see this, the document was processed incorrectly. Use the <parameter>glossary.collection</parameter> parameter.</para> </glossdef> </glossentry> </glossary> glossary.sort boolean glossary.sort Sort glossentry elements? <xsl:param name="glossary.sort" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then the glossentry elements within a glossary, glossdiv, or glosslist are sorted on the glossterm, using the current lang setting. If zero (the default), then glossentry elements are not sorted and are presented in document order. glossentry.show.acronym list no yes primary glossentry.show.acronym Display glossentry acronyms? <xsl:param name="glossentry.show.acronym">no</xsl:param> Description A setting of yes means they should be displayed; no means they shouldn't. If primary is used, then they are shown as the primary text for the entry. This setting controls both acronym and abbrev elements in the glossentry. Miscellaneous formal.procedures boolean formal.procedures Selects formal or informal procedures <xsl:param name="formal.procedures" select="1"></xsl:param> Description Formal procedures are numbered and always have a title. formal.title.placement table formal.title.placement Specifies where formal object titles should occur <xsl:param name="formal.title.placement"> figure before example before equation before table before procedure before task before </xsl:param> Description Specifies where formal object titles should occur. For each formal object type (figure, example, equation, table, and procedure) you can specify either the keyword before or after. runinhead.default.title.end.punct string runinhead.default.title.end.punct Default punctuation character on a run-in-head <xsl:param name="runinhead.default.title.end.punct">.</xsl:param> Description If non-zero, For a formalpara, use the specified string as the separator between the title and following text. The period is the default value. runinhead.title.end.punct string runinhead.title.end.punct Characters that count as punctuation on a run-in-head <xsl:param name="runinhead.title.end.punct">.!?:</xsl:param> Description Specify which characters are to be counted as punctuation. These characters are checked for a match with the last character of the title. If no match is found, the runinhead.default.title.end.punct contents are inserted. This is to avoid duplicated punctuation in the output. show.comments boolean show.comments Display remark elements? <xsl:param name="show.comments" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, comments will be displayed, otherwise they are suppressed. Comments here refers to the remark element (which was called comment prior to DocBook 4.0), not XML comments (<-- like this -->) which are unavailable. show.revisionflag boolean show.revisionflag Enable decoration of elements that have a revisionflag <xsl:param name="show.revisionflag" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If show.revisionflag is turned on, then the stylesheets may produce additional markup designed to allow a CSS stylesheet to highlight elements that have specific revisionflag settings. The markup inserted will be usually be either a <span> or <div> with an appropriate class attribute. (The value of the class attribute will be the same as the value of the revisionflag attribute). In some contexts, for example tables, where extra markup would be structurally illegal, the class attribute will be added to the appropriate container element. In general, the stylesheets only test for revisionflag in contexts where an importing stylesheet would have to redefine whole templates. Most of the revisionflag processing is expected to be done by another stylesheet, for example changebars.xsl. shade.verbatim boolean shade.verbatim Should verbatim environments be shaded? <xsl:param name="shade.verbatim" select="0"></xsl:param> Description In the FO stylesheet, if this parameter is non-zero then the shade.verbatim.style properties will be applied to verbatim environments. In the HTML stylesheet, this parameter is now deprecated. Use CSS instead. shade.verbatim.style attribute set shade.verbatim.style Properties that specify the style of shaded verbatim listings <xsl:attribute-set name="shade.verbatim.style"> <xsl:attribute name="border">0</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="bgcolor">#E0E0E0</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Properties that specify the style of shaded verbatim listings. The parameters specified (the border and background color) are added to the styling of the xsl-fo output. A border might be specified as "thin black solid" for example. See xsl-fo punct.honorific string punct.honorific Punctuation after an honorific in a personal name. <xsl:param name="punct.honorific">.</xsl:param> Description This parameter specifies the punctuation that should be added after an honorific in a personal name. tex.math.in.alt list plain latex tex.math.in.alt TeX notation used for equations <xsl:param name="tex.math.in.alt"></xsl:param> Description If you want type math directly in TeX notation in equations, this parameter specifies notation used. Currently are supported two values -- plain and latex. Empty value means that you are not using TeX math at all. Preferred way for including TeX alternative of math is inside of textobject element. Eg.: <inlineequation> <inlinemediaobject> <imageobject> <imagedata fileref="eq1.gif"/> </imageobject> <textobject><phrase>E=mc squared</phrase></textobject> <textobject role="tex"><phrase>E=mc^2</phrase></textobject> </inlinemediaobject> </inlineequation> If you are using graphic element, you can store TeX inside alt element: <inlineequation> <alt role="tex">a^2+b^2=c^2</alt> <graphic fileref="a2b2c2.gif"/> </inlineequation> If you want use this feature, you should process your FO with PassiveTeX, which only supports TeX math notation. When calling stylsheet, don't forget to specify also passivetex.extensions=1. If you want equations in HTML, just process generated file tex-math-equations.tex by TeX or LaTeX. Then run dvi2bitmap program on result DVI file. You will get images for equations in your document. This feature is useful for print/PDF output only if you use the obsolete and now unsupported PassiveTeX XSL-FO engine. Related Parameters tex.math.delims, passivetex.extensions, tex.math.file tex.math.file string tex.math.file Name of temporary file for generating images from equations <xsl:param name="tex.math.file">tex-math-equations.tex</xsl:param> Description Name of auxiliary file for TeX equations. This file can be processed by dvi2bitmap to get bitmap versions of equations for HTML output. Related Parameters tex.math.in.alt, tex.math.delims, More information For how-to documentation on embedding TeX equations and generating output from them, see DBTeXMath. tex.math.delims boolean tex.math.delims Should equations output for processing by TeX be surrounded by math mode delimiters? <xsl:param name="tex.math.delims" select="1"></xsl:param> Description For compatibility with DSSSL based DBTeXMath from Allin Cottrell you should set this parameter to 0. This feature is useful for print/PDF output only if you use the obsolete and now unsupported PassiveTeX XSL-FO engine. Related Parameters tex.math.in.alt, passivetex.extensions See Also You can also use the dbtex delims processing instruction to control whether delimiters are output. pixels.per.inch integer pixels.per.inch How many pixels are there per inch? <xsl:param name="pixels.per.inch">90</xsl:param> Description When lengths are converted to pixels, this value is used to determine the size of a pixel. The default value is taken from the XSL Recommendation. points.per.em number points.per.em Specify the nominal size of an em-space in points <xsl:param name="points.per.em">10</xsl:param> Description The fixed value used for calculations based upon the size of a character. The assumption made is that ten point font is in use. This assumption may not be valid. use.svg boolean use.svg Allow SVG in the result tree? <xsl:param name="use.svg" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, SVG will be considered an acceptable image format. SVG is passed through to the result tree, so correct rendering of the resulting diagram depends on the formatter (FO processor or web browser) that is used to process the output from the stylesheet. menuchoice.separator string menuchoice.separator Separator between items of a menuchoice other than guimenuitem and guisubmenu <xsl:param name="menuchoice.separator">+</xsl:param> Description Separator used to connect items of a menuchoice other than guimenuitem and guisubmenu. The latter elements are linked with menuchoice.menu.separator. menuchoice.menu.separator string menuchoice.menu.separator Separator between items of a menuchoice with guimenuitem or guisubmenu Description Separator used to connect items of a menuchoice with guimenuitem or guisubmenu. Other elements are linked with menuchoice.separator. The default value is →, which is the → (right arrow) character entity. The current FOP (0.20.5) requires setting the font-family explicitly. The default value also includes spaces around the arrow, which will allow a line to break. Replace the spaces with   (nonbreaking space) if you don't want those spaces to break. default.float.class string default.float.class Specifies the default float class <xsl:param name="default.float.class"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="contains($stylesheet.result.type,'html')">left</xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>before</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:param> Description Selects the direction in which a float should be placed. for xsl-fo this is before, for html it is left. For Western texts, the before direction is the top of the page. footnote.number.format list 11,2,3... AA,B,C... aa,b,c... ii,ii,iii... II,II,III... footnote.number.format Identifies the format used for footnote numbers <xsl:param name="footnote.number.format">1</xsl:param> Description The footnote.number.format specifies the format to use for footnote numeration (1, i, I, a, or A). table.footnote.number.format list 11,2,3... AA,B,C... aa,b,c... ii,ii,iii... II,II,III... table.footnote.number.format Identifies the format used for footnote numbers in tables <xsl:param name="table.footnote.number.format">a</xsl:param> Description The table.footnote.number.format specifies the format to use for footnote numeration (1, i, I, a, or A) in tables. footnote.number.symbols footnote.number.symbols Special characters to use as footnote markers <xsl:param name="footnote.number.symbols"></xsl:param> Description If footnote.number.symbols is not the empty string, footnotes will use the characters it contains as footnote symbols. For example, *†‡◊✠ will identify footnotes with *, †, ‡, ◊, and ✠. If there are more footnotes than symbols, the stylesheets will fall back to numbered footnotes using footnote.number.format. The use of symbols for footnotes depends on the ability of your processor (or browser) to render the symbols you select. Not all systems are capable of displaying the full range of Unicode characters. If the quoted characters in the preceding paragraph are not displayed properly, that's a good indicator that you may have trouble using those symbols for footnotes. table.footnote.number.symbols string table.footnote.number.symbols Special characters to use a footnote markers in tables <xsl:param name="table.footnote.number.symbols"></xsl:param> Description If table.footnote.number.symbols is not the empty string, table footnotes will use the characters it contains as footnote symbols. For example, *†‡◊✠ will identify footnotes with *, †, ‡, ◊, and ✠. If there are more footnotes than symbols, the stylesheets will fall back to numbered footnotes using table.footnote.number.format. The use of symbols for footnotes depends on the ability of your processor (or browser) to render the symbols you select. Not all systems are capable of displaying the full range of Unicode characters. If the quoted characters in the preceding paragraph are not displayed properly, that's a good indicator that you may have trouble using those symbols for footnotes. highlight.source boolean highlight.source Should the content of programlisting be syntactically highlighted? <xsl:param name="highlight.source" select="0"></xsl:param> Description When this parameter is non-zero, the stylesheets will try to do syntax highlighting of the content of programlisting elements. You specify the language for each programlisting by using the language attribute. The highlight.default.language parameter can be used to specify the language for programlistings without a language attribute. Syntax highlighting also works for screen and synopsis elements. The actual highlighting work is done by the XSLTHL extension module. This is an external Java library that has to be downloaded separately (see below). In order to use this extension, you must add xslthl-2.x.x.jar to your Java classpath. The latest version is available from the XSLT syntax highlighting project at SourceForge. use a customization layer in which you import one of the following stylesheet modules: html/highlight.xsl xhtml/highlight.xsl xhtml-1_1/highlight.xsl fo/highlight.xsl let either the xslthl.config Java system property or the highlight.xslthl.config parameter point to the configuration file for syntax highlighting (using URL syntax). DocBook XSL comes with a ready-to-use configuration file, highlighting/xslthl-config.xml. The extension works with Saxon 6.5.x and Xalan-J. (Saxon 8.5 or later is also supported, but since it is an XSLT 2.0 processor it is not guaranteed to work with DocBook XSL in all circumstances.) The following is an example of a Saxon 6 command adapted for syntax highlighting, to be used on Windows: java -cp c:/Java/saxon.jar;c:/Java/xslthl-2.0.1.jar -Dxslthl.config=file:///c:/docbook-xsl/highlighting/xslthl-config.xml com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet -o test.html test.xml myhtml.xsl highlight.xslthl.config uri highlight.xslthl.config Location of XSLTHL configuration file <xsl:param name="highlight.xslthl.config"></xsl:param> Description This location has precedence over the corresponding Java property. Please note that usually you have to specify location as URL not just as a simple path on the local filesystem. E.g. file:///home/user/xslthl/my-xslthl-config.xml. highlight.default.language string highlight.default.language Default language of programlisting <xsl:param name="highlight.default.language"></xsl:param> Description This language is used when there is no language attribute on programlisting. email.delimiters.enabled boolean email.delimiters.enabled Generate delimiters around email addresses? <xsl:param name="email.delimiters.enabled" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, delimiters For delimiters, the stylesheets are currently hard-coded to output angle brackets. are generated around e-mail addresses (the output of the email element). exsl.node.set.available boolean exsl.node.set.available Is the test function-available('exsl:node-set') true? <xsl:param name="exsl.node.set.available"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when exsl:foo="" test="function-available('exsl:node-set') or contains(system-property('xsl:vendor'), 'Apache Software Foundation')">1</xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>0</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then the exsl:node-set() function is available to be used in the stylesheet. If zero, then the function is not available. This param automatically detects the presence of the function and does not normally need to be set manually. This param was created to handle a long-standing bug in the Xalan processor that fails to detect the function even though it is available. Annotations annotation.support boolean annotation.support Enable annotations? <xsl:param name="annotation.support" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the stylesheets will attempt to support annotation elements in HTML by including some JavaScript (see annotation.js). annotation.js string annotation.js URIs identifying JavaScript files with support for annotation popups <xsl:param name="annotation.js"> <xsl:text>http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/script/AnchorPosition.js http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/script/PopupWindow.js</xsl:text></xsl:param> Description If annotation.support is enabled and the document contains annotations, then the URIs listed in this parameter will be included. These JavaScript files are required for popup annotation support. annotation.css string annotation.css CSS rules for annotations <xsl:param name="annotation.css"> /* ====================================================================== Annotations */ div.annotation-list { visibility: hidden; } div.annotation-nocss { position: absolute; visibility: hidden; } div.annotation-popup { position: absolute; z-index: 4; visibility: hidden; padding: 0px; margin: 2px; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px; width: 200px; background-color: white; } div.annotation-title { padding: 1px; font-weight: bold; border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: white; background-color: black; } div.annotation-body { padding: 2px; } div.annotation-body p { margin-top: 0px; padding-top: 0px; } div.annotation-close { position: absolute; top: 2px; right: 2px; } </xsl:param> Description If annotation.support is enabled and the document contains annotations, then the CSS in this parameter will be included in the document. annotation.graphic.open uri annotation.graphic.open Image for identifying a link that opens an annotation popup <xsl:param name="annotation.graphic.open">http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/images/annot-open.png</xsl:param> Description This image is used inline to identify the location of annotations. It may be replaced by a user provided graphic. The size should be approximately 10x10 pixels. annotation.graphic.close uri annotation.graphic.close Image for identifying a link that closes an annotation popup <xsl:param name="annotation.graphic.close"> http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/images/annot-close.png</xsl:param> Description This image is used on popup annotations as the “x” that the user can click to dismiss the popup. This image is used on popup annotations as the “x” that the user can click to dismiss the popup. It may be replaced by a user provided graphic. The size should be approximately 10x10 pixels. Graphics img.src.path string img.src.path Path to HTML/FO image files <xsl:param name="img.src.path"></xsl:param> Description Add a path prefix to the value of the fileref attribute of graphic, inlinegraphic, and imagedata elements. The resulting compound path is used in the output as the value of the src attribute of img (HTML) or external-graphic (FO). The path given by img.src.path could be relative to the directory where the HTML/FO files are created, or it could be an absolute URI. The default value is empty. Be sure to include a trailing slash if needed. This prefix is not applied to any filerefs that start with "/" or contain "//:". keep.relative.image.uris boolean keep.relative.image.uris Should image URIs be resolved against xml:base? <xsl:param name="keep.relative.image.uris" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, relative URIs (in, for example fileref attributes) will be used in the generated output. Otherwise, the URIs will be made absolute with respect to the base URI. Note that the stylesheets calculate (and use) the absolute form for some purposes, this only applies to the resulting output. graphic.default.extension string graphic.default.extension Default extension for graphic filenames <xsl:param name="graphic.default.extension"></xsl:param> Description If a graphic or mediaobject includes a reference to a filename that does not include an extension, and the format attribute is unspecified, the default extension will be used. default.image.width length default.image.width The default width of images <xsl:param name="default.image.width"></xsl:param> Description If specified, this value will be used for the width attribute on images that do not specify any viewport dimensions. nominal.image.width length nominal.image.width The nominal image width <xsl:param name="nominal.image.width" select="6 * $pixels.per.inch"></xsl:param> Description Graphic widths expressed as a percentage are problematic. In the following discussion, we speak of width and contentwidth, but the same issues apply to depth and contentdepth. A width of 50% means "half of the available space for the image." That's fine. But note that in HTML, this is a dynamic property and the image size will vary if the browser window is resized. A contentwidth of 50% means "half of the actual image width". But what does that mean if the stylesheets cannot assess the image's actual size? Treating this as a width of 50% is one possibility, but it produces behavior (dynamic scaling) that seems entirely out of character with the meaning. Instead, the stylesheets define a nominal.image.width and convert percentages to actual values based on that nominal size. nominal.image.depth length nominal.image.depth Nominal image depth <xsl:param name="nominal.image.depth" select="4 * $pixels.per.inch"></xsl:param> Description See nominal.image.width. use.embed.for.svg boolean use.embed.for.svg Use HTML embed for SVG? <xsl:param name="use.embed.for.svg" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, an embed element will be created for SVG figures. An object is always created, this parameter merely controls whether or not an additional embed is generated inside the object. On the plus side, this may be more portable among browsers and plug-ins. On the minus side, it isn't valid HTML. make.graphic.viewport boolean make.graphic.viewport Use tables in HTML to make viewports for graphics <xsl:param name="make.graphic.viewport" select="1"></xsl:param> Description The HTML img element only supports the notion of content-area scaling; it doesn't support the distinction between a content-area and a viewport-area, so we have to make some compromises. If make.graphic.viewport is non-zero, a table will be used to frame the image. This creates an effective viewport-area. Tables and alignment don't work together, so this parameter is ignored if alignment is specified on an image. preferred.mediaobject.role string preferred.mediaobject.role Select which mediaobject to use based on this value of an object's role attribute. <xsl:param name="preferred.mediaobject.role"></xsl:param> Description A mediaobject may contain several objects such as imageobjects. If the parameter use.role.for.mediaobject is non-zero, then the role attribute on imageobjects and other objects within a mediaobject container will be used to select which object will be used. If one of the objects has a role value that matches the preferred.mediaobject.role parameter, then it has first priority for selection. If more than one has such a role value, the first one is used. See the use.role.for.mediaobject parameter for the sequence of selection. use.role.for.mediaobject boolean use.role.for.mediaobject Use role attribute value for selecting which of several objects within a mediaobject to use. <xsl:param name="use.role.for.mediaobject" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the role attribute on imageobjects or other objects within a mediaobject container will be used to select which object will be used. The order of selection when then parameter is non-zero is: If the stylesheet parameter preferred.mediaobject.role has a value, then the object whose role equals that value is selected. Else if an object's role attribute has a value of html for HTML processing or fo for FO output, then the first of such objects is selected. Else the first suitable object is selected. If the value of use.role.for.mediaobject is zero, then role attributes are not considered and the first suitable object with or without a role value is used. ignore.image.scaling boolean ignore.image.scaling Tell the stylesheets to ignore the author's image scaling attributes <xsl:param name="ignore.image.scaling" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the scaling attributes on graphics and media objects are ignored. Chunking chunker.output.cdata-section-elements string chunker.output.cdata-section-elements List of elements to escape with CDATA sections <xsl:param name="chunker.output.cdata-section-elements"></xsl:param> Description This parameter specifies the list of elements that should be escaped as CDATA sections by the chunking stylesheet. Not all processors support specification of this parameter. This parameter is documented here, but the declaration is actually in the chunker.xsl stylesheet module. chunker.output.doctype-public string chunker.output.doctype-public Public identifer to use in the document type of generated pages <xsl:param name="chunker.output.doctype-public"></xsl:param> Description This parameter specifies the public identifier that should be used by the chunking stylesheet in the document type declaration of chunked pages.

This parameter is documented here, but the declaration is actually in the chunker.xsl stylesheet module. chunker.output.doctype-system uri chunker.output.doctype-system System identifier to use for the document type in generated pages <xsl:param name="chunker.output.doctype-system"></xsl:param> Description This parameter specifies the system identifier that should be used by the chunking stylesheet in the document type declaration of chunked pages. Not all processors support specification of this parameter. This parameter is documented here, but the declaration is actually in the chunker.xsl stylesheet module. chunker.output.encoding string chunker.output.encoding Encoding used in generated pages <xsl:param name="chunker.output.encoding">ISO-8859-1</xsl:param> Description This parameter specifies the encoding to be used in files generated by the chunking stylesheet. Not all processors support specification of this parameter. This parameter used to be named default.encoding. This parameter is documented here, but the declaration is actually in the chunker.xsl stylesheet module. chunker.output.indent string chunker.output.indent Specification of indentation on generated pages <xsl:param name="chunker.output.indent">no</xsl:param> Description This parameter specifies the value of the indent specification for generated pages. Not all processors support specification of this parameter. This parameter is documented here, but the declaration is actually in the chunker.xsl stylesheet module. chunker.output.media-type string chunker.output.media-type Media type to use in generated pages <xsl:param name="chunker.output.media-type"></xsl:param> Description This parameter specifies the media type that should be used by the chunking stylesheet. Not all processors support specification of this parameter. This parameter specifies the media type that should be used by the chunking stylesheet. This should be one from those defined in [RFC2045] and [RFC2046] This parameter is documented here, but the declaration is actually in the chunker.xsl stylesheet module. It must be one from html, xml or text chunker.output.method list html xml chunker.output.method Method used in generated pages <xsl:param name="chunker.output.method">html</xsl:param> Description This parameter specifies the output method to be used in files generated by the chunking stylesheet. This parameter used to be named output.method. This parameter is documented here, but the declaration is actually in the chunker.xsl stylesheet module. chunker.output.omit-xml-declaration string chunker.output.omit-xml-declaration Omit-xml-declaration for generated pages <xsl:param name="chunker.output.omit-xml-declaration">no</xsl:param> Description This parameter specifies the value of the omit-xml-declaration specification for generated pages. Not all processors support specification of this parameter. This parameter is documented here, but the declaration is actually in the chunker.xsl stylesheet module. chunker.output.standalone string chunker.output.standalone Standalone declaration for generated pages <xsl:param name="chunker.output.standalone">no</xsl:param> Description This parameter specifies the value of the standalone specification for generated pages. It must be either yes or no. Not all processors support specification of this parameter. This parameter is documented here, but the declaration is actually in the chunker.xsl stylesheet module. saxon.character.representation string saxon.character.representation Saxon character representation used in generated HTML pages <xsl:param name="saxon.character.representation" select="'entity;decimal'"></xsl:param> Description This parameter has effect only when Saxon 6 is used (version 6.4.2 or later). It sets the character representation in files generated by the chunking stylesheets. If you want to suppress entity references for characters with direct representations in chunker.output.encoding, set the parameter value to native. For more information, see Saxon output character representation.

[RFC1766] defines and explains the language codes that must be used in HTML documents. Briefly, language codes consist of a primary code and a possibly empty series of subcodes: language-code = primary-code ( "-" subcode )* And in RFC 1766, Tags for the Identification of Languages, the EBNF for "language tag" is given as: Language-Tag = Primary-tag *( "-" Subtag ) Primary-tag = 1*8ALPHA Subtag = 1*8ALPHA

. by taking any underscore characters in any lang values found in source documents, and replacing them with hyphen characters in output HTML files. For example, zh_CN in a source document becomes zh-CN in the HTML output form that source. This parameter does not cause any case change in lang values, because RFC 1766 explicitly states that all "language tags" (as it calls them) "are to be treated as case insensitive". writing.mode string writing.mode Direction of text flow based on locale <xsl:param name="writing.mode"> <xsl:call-template name="gentext"> <xsl:with-param name="key">writing-mode</xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="lang"> <xsl:call-template name="l10n.language"> <xsl:with-param name="target" select="/*[1]"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:param> Description Sets direction of text flow and text alignment based on locale. The value is normally taken from the gentext file for the lang attribute of the document's root element, using the key name 'writing-mode' to look it up in the gentext file. But the param can also be set on the command line to override that gentext value. Accepted values are: lr-tb Left-to-right text flow in each line, lines stack top to bottom. rl-tb Right-to-left text flow in each line, lines stack top to bottom. tb-rl Top-to-bottom text flow in each vertical line, lines stack right to left. Supported by only a few XSL-FO processors. Not supported in HTML output. lr Shorthand for lr-tb. rl Shorthand for rl-tb. tb Shorthand for tb-rl. FO Parameter Reference This is reference documentation for all user-configurable parameters in the DocBook XSL FO stylesheets (for generating XSL-FO output destined for final print/PDF output). Admonitions admon.graphics boolean admon.graphics Use graphics in admonitions? <xsl:param name="admon.graphics" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If true (non-zero), admonitions are presented in an alternate style that uses a graphic. Default graphics are provided in the distribution. admon.graphics.extension string admon.graphics.extension Filename extension for admonition graphics <xsl:param name="admon.graphics.extension">.png</xsl:param> Description Sets the filename extension to use on admonition graphics. admon.graphics.path string admon.graphics.path Path to admonition graphics <xsl:param name="admon.graphics.path">images/</xsl:param> Description Sets the path to the directory containing the admonition graphics (caution.png, important.png etc). This location is normally relative to the output html directory. See base.dir admon.textlabel boolean admon.textlabel Use text label in admonitions? <xsl:param name="admon.textlabel" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If true (non-zero), admonitions are presented with a generated text label such as Note or Warning in the appropriate language. If zero, such labels are turned off, but any title child of the admonition element are still output. The default value is 1. admonition.title.properties attribute set admonition.title.properties To set the style for admonitions titles. <xsl:attribute-set name="admonition.title.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-size">14pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-weight">bold</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="hyphenate">false</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="keep-with-next.within-column">always</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description How do you want admonitions titles styled? Set the font-size, weight etc to the style required. admonition.properties attribute set admonition.properties To set the style for admonitions. <xsl:attribute-set name="admonition.properties"></xsl:attribute-set> Description How do you want admonitions styled? Set the font-size, weight, etc. to the style required graphical.admonition.properties attribute set graphical.admonition.properties To add properties to the outer block of a graphical admonition. <xsl:attribute-set name="graphical.admonition.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0.8em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">1.2em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.minimum">0.8em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.maximum">1.2em</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description These properties are added to the outer block containing the entire graphical admonition, including its title. It is used when the parameter admon.graphics is set to nonzero. Use this attribute-set to set the space above and below, and any indent for the whole admonition. In addition to these properties, a graphical admonition also applies the admonition.title.properties attribute-set to the title, and applies the admonition.properties attribute-set to the rest of the content. nongraphical.admonition.properties attribute set nongraphical.admonition.properties To add properties to the outer block of a nongraphical admonition. <xsl:attribute-set name="nongraphical.admonition.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0.8em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">1.2em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="margin-{$direction.align.start}">0.25in</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="margin-{$direction.align.end}">0.25in</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description These properties are added to the outer block containing the entire nongraphical admonition, including its title. It is used when the parameter admon.graphics is set to zero. Use this attribute-set to set the space above and below, and any indent for the whole admonition. In addition to these properties, a nongraphical admonition also applies the admonition.title.properties attribute-set to the title, and the admonition.properties attribute-set to the rest of the content. Callouts callout.defaultcolumn integer callout.defaultcolumn Indicates what column callouts appear in by default <xsl:param name="callout.defaultcolumn">60</xsl:param> Description If a callout does not identify a column (for example, if it uses the linerange unit), it will appear in the default column. callout.graphics boolean callout.graphics Use graphics for callouts? <xsl:param name="callout.graphics" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, callouts are presented with graphics (e.g., reverse-video circled numbers instead of "(1)", "(2)", etc.). Default graphics are provided in the distribution. callout.graphics.extension string callout.graphics.extension Filename extension for callout graphics <xsl:param name="callout.graphics.extension">.svg</xsl:param> Description Sets the filename extension to use on callout graphics. The Docbook XSL distribution provides callout graphics in the following formats: SVG (extension: .svg) PNG (extension: .png) GIF (extension: .gif) callout.graphics.number.limit integer callout.graphics.number.limit Number of the largest callout graphic <xsl:param name="callout.graphics.number.limit">30</xsl:param> Description If callout.graphics is non-zero, graphics are used to represent callout numbers instead of plain text. The value of callout.graphics.number.limit is the largest number for which a graphic exists. If the callout number exceeds this limit, the default presentation "(plain text instead of a graphic)" will be used. callout.graphics.path string callout.graphics.path Path to callout graphics <xsl:param name="callout.graphics.path">images/callouts/</xsl:param> Description Sets the path to the directory holding the callout graphics. his location is normally relative to the output html directory. see base.dir. Always terminate the directory with / since the graphic file is appended to this string, hence needs the separator. callout.icon.size length callout.icon.size Specifies the size of callout marker icons <xsl:param name="callout.icon.size">7pt</xsl:param> Description Specifies the size of the callout marker icons. The default size is 7 points. callout.unicode boolean callout.unicode Use Unicode characters rather than images for callouts. <xsl:param name="callout.unicode" select="0"></xsl:param> Description The stylesheets can use either an image of the numbers one to ten, or the single Unicode character which represents the numeral, in white on a black background. Use this to select the Unicode character option. callout.unicode.font string callout.unicode.font Specify a font for Unicode glyphs <xsl:param name="callout.unicode.font">ZapfDingbats</xsl:param> Description The name of the font to specify around Unicode callout glyphs. If set to the empty string, no font change will occur. callout.unicode.number.limit integer callout.unicode.number.limit Number of the largest unicode callout character <xsl:param name="callout.unicode.number.limit">10</xsl:param> Description If callout.unicode is non-zero, unicode characters are used to represent callout numbers. The value of callout.unicode.number.limit is the largest number for which a unicode character exists. If the callout number exceeds this limit, the default presentation "(nnn)" will always be used. callout.unicode.start.character integer callout.unicode.start.character First Unicode character to use, decimal value. <xsl:param name="callout.unicode.start.character">10102</xsl:param> Description If callout.graphics is zero and callout.unicode is non-zero, unicode characters are used to represent callout numbers. The value of callout.unicode.start.character is the decimal unicode value used for callout number one. Currently, only 10102 is supported in the stylesheets for this parameter. callouts.extension boolean callouts.extension Enable the callout extension <xsl:param name="callouts.extension" select="1"></xsl:param> Description The callouts extension processes areaset elements in programlistingco and other text-based callout elements. ToC/LoT/Index Generation autotoc.label.separator string autotoc.label.separator Separator between labels and titles in the ToC <xsl:param name="autotoc.label.separator">. </xsl:param> Description String used to separate labels and titles in a table of contents. process.empty.source.toc boolean process.empty.source.toc Generate automated TOC if toc element occurs in a source document? <xsl:param name="process.empty.source.toc" select="0"></xsl:param> Description Specifies that if an empty toc element is found in a source document, an automated TOC is generated at this point in the document. Depending on what the value of the generate.toc parameter is, setting this parameter to 1 could result in generation of duplicate automated TOCs. So the process.empty.source.toc is primarily useful as an "override": by placing an empty toc in your document and setting this parameter to 1, you can force a TOC to be generated even if generate.toc says not to. process.source.toc boolean process.source.toc Process a non-empty toc element if it occurs in a source document? <xsl:param name="process.source.toc" select="0"></xsl:param> Description Specifies that the contents of a non-empty "hard-coded" toc element in a source document are processed to generate a TOC in output. This parameter has no effect on automated generation of TOCs. An automated TOC may still be generated along with the "hard-coded" TOC. To suppress automated TOC generation, adjust the value of the generate.toc paramameter. The process.source.toc parameter also has no effect if the toc element is empty; handling for empty toc is controlled by the process.empty.source.toc parameter. generate.toc table generate.toc Control generation of ToCs and LoTs <xsl:param name="generate.toc"> /appendix toc,title article/appendix nop /article toc,title book toc,title,figure,table,example,equation /chapter toc,title part toc,title /preface toc,title reference toc,title /sect1 toc /sect2 toc /sect3 toc /sect4 toc /sect5 toc /section toc set toc,title </xsl:param> Description This parameter has a structured value. It is a table of space-delimited path/value pairs. Each path identifies some element in the source document using a restricted subset of XPath (only the implicit child axis, no wildcards, no predicates). Paths can be either relative or absolute. When processing a particular element, the stylesheets consult this table to determine if a ToC (or LoT(s)) should be generated. For example, consider the entry: book toc,figure This indicates that whenever a book is formatted, a Table Of Contents and a List of Figures should be generated. Similarly, /chapter toc indicates that whenever a document that has a root of chapter is formatted, a Table of Contents should be generated. The entry chapter would match all chapters, but /chapter matches only chapter document elements. Generally, the longest match wins. So, for example, if you want to distinguish articles in books from articles in parts, you could use these two entries: book/article toc,figure part/article toc Note that an article in a part can never match a book/article, so if you want nothing to be generated for articles in parts, you can simply leave that rule out. If you want to leave the rule in, to make it explicit that you're turning something off, use the value nop. For example, the following entry disables ToCs and LoTs for articles: article nop Do not simply leave the word article in the file without a matching value. That'd be just begging the silly little path/value parser to get confused. Section ToCs are further controlled by the generate.section.toc.level parameter. For a given section level to have a ToC, it must have both an entry in generate.toc and be within the range enabled by generate.section.toc.level. generate.index boolean generate.index Do you want an index? <xsl:param name="generate.index" select="1"></xsl:param> Description Specify if an index should be generated. make.index.markup boolean make.index.markup Generate XML index markup in the index? <xsl:param name="make.index.markup" select="0"></xsl:param> Description This parameter enables a very neat trick for getting properly merged, collated back-of-the-book indexes. G. Ken Holman suggested this trick at Extreme Markup Languages 2002 and I'm indebted to him for it. Jeni Tennison's excellent code in autoidx.xsl does a great job of merging and sorting indexterms in the document and building a back-of-the-book index. However, there's one thing that it cannot reasonably be expected to do: merge page numbers into ranges. (I would not have thought that it could collate and suppress duplicate page numbers, but in fact it appears to manage that task somehow.) Ken's trick is to produce a document in which the index at the back of the book is displayed in XML. Because the index is generated by the FO processor, all of the page numbers have been resolved. It's a bit hard to explain, but what it boils down to is that instead of having an index at the back of the book that looks like this:

A ap1, 1, 2, 3

you get one that looks like this:

<indexdiv>A</indexdiv> <indexentry> <primaryie>ap1</primaryie>, <phrase role="pageno">1</phrase>, <phrase role="pageno">2</phrase>, <phrase role="pageno">3</phrase> </indexentry>

After building a PDF file with this sort of odd-looking index, you can extract the text from the PDF file and the result is a proper index expressed in XML. Now you have data that's amenable to processing and a simple Perl script (such as fo/pdf2index) can merge page ranges and generate a proper index. Finally, reformat your original document using this literal index instead of an automatically generated one and bingo! index.method list basic kosek kimber index.method Select method used to group index entries in an index <xsl:param name="index.method">basic</xsl:param> Description This parameter lets you select which method to use for sorting and grouping index entries in an index. Indexes in Latin-based languages that have accented characters typically sort together accented words and unaccented words. Thus Á (U+00C1 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH ACUTE) would sort together with A (U+0041 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A), so both would appear in the A section of the index. Languages using other alphabets (such as Russian, which is written in the Cyrillic alphabet) and languages using ideographic chararacters (such as Japanese) require grouping specific to the languages and alphabets. The default indexing method is limited. It can group accented characters in Latin-based languages only. It cannot handle non-Latin alphabets or ideographic languages. The other indexing methods require extensions of one type or another, and do not work with all XSLT processors, which is why they are not used by default. The three choices for indexing method are: basic (default) Sort and groups words based only on the Latin alphabet. Words with accented Latin letters will group and sort with their respective primary letter, but words in non-Latin alphabets will be put in the Symbols section of the index. kosek This method sorts and groups words based on letter groups configured in the DocBook locale file for the given language. See, for example, the French locale file common/fr.xml. This method requires that the XSLT processor supports the EXSLT extensions (most do). It also requires support for using user-defined functions in xsl:key (xsltproc does not). This method is suitable for any language for which you can list all the individual characters that should appear in each letter group in an index. It is probably not practical to use it for ideographic languages such as Chinese that have hundreds or thousands of characters. To use the kosek method, you must: Use a processor that supports its extensions, such as Saxon 6 or Xalan (xsltproc and Saxon 8 do not). Set the index.method parameter's value to kosek. Import the appropriate index extensions stylesheet module fo/autoidx-kosek.xsl or html/autoidx-kosek.xsl into your customization. kimber This method uses extensions to the Saxon processor to implement sophisticated indexing processes. It uses its own configuration file, which can include information for any number of languages. Each language's configuration can group words using one of two processes. In the enumerated process similar to that used in the kosek method, you indicate the groupings character-by-character. In the between-key process, you specify the break-points in the sort order that should start a new group. The latter configuration is useful for ideographic languages such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. You can also define your own collation algorithms and how you want mixed Latin-alphabet words sorted. For a whitepaper describing the extensions, see: http://www.innodata-isogen.com/knowledge_center/white_papers/back_of_book_for_xsl_fo.pdf. To download the extension library, see http://www.innodata-isogen.com/knowledge_center/tools_downloads/i18nsupport. To use the kimber method, you must: Use Saxon (version 6 or 8) as your XSLT processor. Install and configure the Innodata Isogen library, using the documentation that comes with it. Set the index.method parameter's value to kimber. Import the appropriate index extensions stylesheet module fo/autoidx-kimber.xsl or html/autoidx-kimber.xsl into your customization. index.on.type boolean index.on.type Select indexterms based on type attribute value <xsl:param name="index.on.type" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then an index element that has a type attribute value will contain only those indexterm elements with a matching type attribute value. If an index has no type attribute or it is blank, then the index will contain all indexterms in the current scope. If index.on.type is zero, then the type attribute has no effect on selecting indexterms for an index. For those using DocBook version 4.2 or earlier, the type attribute is not available for index terms. However, you can achieve the same effect by using the role attribute in the same manner on indexterm and index, and setting the stylesheet parameter index.on.role to a nonzero value. index.on.role boolean index.on.role Select indexterms based on role value <xsl:param name="index.on.role" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then an index element that has a role attribute value will contain only those indexterm elements with a matching role value. If an index has no role attribute or it is blank, then the index will contain all indexterms in the current scope. If index.on.role is zero, then the role attribute has no effect on selecting indexterms for an index. If you are using DocBook version 4.3 or later, you should use the type attribute instead of role on indexterm and index, and set the index.on.type to a nonzero value. index.preferred.page.properties attribute set index.preferred.page.properties Properties used to emphasize page number references for significant index terms <xsl:attribute-set name="index.preferred.page.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-weight">bold</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Properties used to emphasize page number references for significant index terms (significance=preferred). Currently works only with XEP. index.entry.properties attribute set index.entry.properties Properties applied to the formatted entries in an index <xsl:attribute-set name="index.entry.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="start-indent">0pt</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This attribute set is applied to the block containing the entries in a letter division in an index. It can be used to set the font-size, font-family, and other inheritable properties that will be applied to all index entries. index.div.title.properties attribute set index.div.title.properties Properties associated with the letter headings in an index <xsl:attribute-set name="index.div.title.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="margin-{$direction.align.start}">0pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-size">14.4pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-family"><xsl:value-of select="$title.fontset"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-weight">bold</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="keep-with-next.within-column">always</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum"><xsl:value-of select="concat($body.font.master,'pt')"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum"><xsl:value-of select="concat($body.font.master,'pt * 0.8')"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum"><xsl:value-of select="concat($body.font.master,'pt * 1.2')"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="start-indent">0pt</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This attribute set is used on the letter headings that separate the divisions in an index. index.number.separator string index.number.separator Override for punctuation separating page numbers in index <xsl:param name="index.number.separator"></xsl:param> Description This parameter permits you to override the text to insert between page references in a formatted index entry. Typically that would be a comma and a space. Because this text may be locale dependent, this parameter's value is normally taken from a gentext template named 'number-separator' in the context 'index' in the stylesheet locale file for the language of the current document. This parameter can be used to override the gentext string, and would typically be used on the command line. This parameter would apply to all languages. So this text string can be customized in two ways. You can reset the default gentext string using the local.l10n.xml parameter, or you can override the gentext with the content of this parameter. The content can be a simple string, or it can be something more complex such as a call-template. In HTML index output, section title references are used instead of page number references. This punctuation appears between such section titles in an HTML index. index.range.separator string index.range.separator Override for punctuation separating the two numbers in a page range in index <xsl:param name="index.range.separator"></xsl:param> Description This parameter permits you to override the text to insert between the two numbers of a page range in an index. This parameter is only used by those XSL-FO processors that support an extension for generating such page ranges (such as XEP). Because this text may be locale dependent, this parameter's value is normally taken from a gentext template named 'range-separator' in the context 'index' in the stylesheet locale file for the language of the current document. This parameter can be used to override the gentext string, and would typically be used on the command line. This parameter would apply to all languages. So this text string can be customized in two ways. You can reset the default gentext string using the local.l10n.xml parameter, or you can override the gentext with the content of this parameter. The content can be a simple string, or it can be something more complex such as a call-template. In HTML index output, section title references are used instead of page number references. So there are no page ranges and this parameter has no effect. index.term.separator string index.term.separator Override for punctuation separating an index term from its list of page references in an index <xsl:param name="index.term.separator"></xsl:param> Description This parameter permits you to override the text to insert between the end of an index term and its list of page references. Typically that might be a comma and a space. Because this text may be locale dependent, this parameter's value is normally taken from a gentext template named 'term-separator' in the context 'index' in the stylesheet locale file for the language of the current document. This parameter can be used to override the gentext string, and would typically be used on the command line. This parameter would apply to all languages. So this text string can be customized in two ways. You can reset the default gentext string using the local.l10n.xml parameter, or you can fill in the content for this normally empty override parameter. The content can be a simple string, or it can be something more complex such as a call-template. For fo output, it could be an fo:leader element to provide space of a specific length, or a dot leader. xep.index.item.properties attribute set xep.index.item.properties Properties associated with XEP index-items <xsl:attribute-set name="xep.index.item.properties" use-attribute-sets="index.page.number.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="merge-subsequent-page-numbers">true</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="link-back">true</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Properties associated with XEP index-items, which generate page numbers in an index processed by XEP. For more info see the XEP documentation section "Indexes" in http://www.renderx.com/reference.html#Indexes. This attribute-set also adds by default any properties from the index.page.number.properties attribute-set. toc.section.depth integer toc.section.depth How deep should recursive sections appear in the TOC? <xsl:param name="toc.section.depth">2</xsl:param> Description Specifies the depth to which recursive sections should appear in the TOC. toc.max.depth integer toc.max.depth How many levels should be created for each TOC? <xsl:param name="toc.max.depth">8</xsl:param> Description Specifies the maximal depth of TOC on all levels. toc.indent.width float toc.indent.width Amount of indentation for TOC entries <xsl:param name="toc.indent.width">24</xsl:param>  Description Specifies, in points, the distance by which each level of the TOC is indented from its parent. This value is expressed in points, without a unit (in other words, it is a bare number). Using a bare number allows the stylesheet to perform calculations that would otherwise have to be performed by the FO processor because not all processors support expressions. toc.line.properties attribute set toc.line.properties Properties for lines in ToCs and LoTs <xsl:attribute-set name="toc.line.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="text-align-last">justify</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="text-align">start</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="end-indent"><xsl:value-of select="concat($toc.indent.width, 'pt')"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="last-line-end-indent"><xsl:value-of select="concat('-', $toc.indent.width, 'pt')"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Properties which are applied to every line in ToC (or LoT). You can modify them in order to change appearance of all, or some lines. For example, in order to make lines for chapters bold, specify the following in your customization layer: <xsl:attribute-set name="toc.line.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-weight"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="self::chapter">bold</xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>normal</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> toc.margin.properties attribute set toc.margin.properties Margin properties used on Tables of Contents <xsl:attribute-set name="toc.margin.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0.5em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">2em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.minimum">0.5em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.maximum">2em</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This attribute set is used on Tables of Contents. These attributes are set on the wrapper that surrounds the ToC block, not on each individual lines. bridgehead.in.toc boolean bridgehead.in.toc Should bridgehead elements appear in the TOC? <xsl:param name="bridgehead.in.toc" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, bridgeheads appear in the TOC. Note that this option is not fully supported and may be removed in a future version of the stylesheets. simplesect.in.toc boolean simplesect.in.toc Should simplesect elements appear in the TOC? <xsl:param name="simplesect.in.toc" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, simplesects will be included in the TOC. generate.section.toc.level integer generate.section.toc.level Control depth of TOC generation in sections <xsl:param name="generate.section.toc.level" select="0"></xsl:param> Description The generate.section.toc.level parameter controls the depth of section in which TOCs will be generated. Note that this is related to, but not the same as toc.section.depth, which controls the depth to which TOC entries will be generated in a given TOC. If, for example, generate.section.toc.level is 3, TOCs will be generated in first, second, and third level sections, but not in fourth level sections. Processor Extensions arbortext.extensions boolean arbortext.extensions Enable Arbortext extensions? <xsl:param name="arbortext.extensions" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, Arbortext extensions will be used. This parameter can also affect which graphics file formats are supported axf.extensions boolean axf.extensions Enable XSL Formatter extensions? <xsl:param name="axf.extensions" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, XSL Formatter extensions will be used. XSL Formatter extensions consists of PDF bookmarks, document information and better index processing. This parameter can also affect which graphics file formats are supported fop.extensions boolean fop.extensions Enable extensions for FOP version 0.20.5 and earlier <xsl:param name="fop.extensions" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, extensions intended for FOP version 0.20.5 and earlier will be used. At present, this consists of PDF bookmarks. This parameter can also affect which graphics file formats are supported. If you are using a version of FOP beyond version 0.20.5, then use the fop1.extensions parameter instead. fop1.extensions boolean fop1.extensions Enable extensions for FOP version 0.90 and later <xsl:param name="fop1.extensions" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, extensions for FOP version 0.90 and later will be used. This parameter can also affect which graphics file formats are supported. The original fop.extensions parameter should still be used for FOP version 0.20.5 and earlier. passivetex.extensions boolean passivetex.extensions Enable PassiveTeX extensions? <xsl:param name="passivetex.extensions" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, PassiveTeX extensions will be used. At present, this consists of PDF bookmarks and sorted index terms. This parameter can also affect which graphics file formats are supported PassiveTeX is incomplete and development has ceased. In most cases, another XSL-FO engine is probably a better choice. tex.math.in.alt list plain latex tex.math.in.alt TeX notation used for equations <xsl:param name="tex.math.in.alt"></xsl:param> Description If you want type math directly in TeX notation in equations, this parameter specifies notation used. Currently are supported two values -- plain and latex. Empty value means that you are not using TeX math at all. Preferred way for including TeX alternative of math is inside of textobject element. Eg.: <inlineequation> <inlinemediaobject> <imageobject> <imagedata fileref="eq1.gif"/> </imageobject> <textobject><phrase>E=mc squared</phrase></textobject> <textobject role="tex"><phrase>E=mc^2</phrase></textobject> </inlinemediaobject> </inlineequation> If you are using graphic element, you can store TeX inside alt element: <inlineequation> <alt role="tex">a^2+b^2=c^2</alt> <graphic fileref="a2b2c2.gif"/> </inlineequation> If you want use this feature, you should process your FO with PassiveTeX, which only supports TeX math notation. When calling stylsheet, don't forget to specify also passivetex.extensions=1. If you want equations in HTML, just process generated file tex-math-equations.tex by TeX or LaTeX. Then run dvi2bitmap program on result DVI file. You will get images for equations in your document. This feature is useful for print/PDF output only if you use the obsolete and now unsupported PassiveTeX XSL-FO engine. Related Parameters tex.math.delims, passivetex.extensions, tex.math.file tex.math.delims boolean tex.math.delims Should equations output for processing by TeX be surrounded by math mode delimiters? <xsl:param name="tex.math.delims" select="1"></xsl:param> Description For compatibility with DSSSL based DBTeXMath from Allin Cottrell you should set this parameter to 0. This feature is useful for print/PDF output only if you use the obsolete and now unsupported PassiveTeX XSL-FO engine. Related Parameters tex.math.in.alt, passivetex.extensions See Also You can also use the dbtex delims processing instruction to control whether delimiters are output. xep.extensions boolean xep.extensions Enable XEP extensions? <xsl:param name="xep.extensions" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, XEP extensions will be used. XEP extensions consists of PDF bookmarks, document information and better index processing. This parameter can also affect which graphics file formats are supported Stylesheet Extensions linenumbering.everyNth integer linenumbering.everyNth Indicate which lines should be numbered <xsl:param name="linenumbering.everyNth">5</xsl:param> Description If line numbering is enabled, everyNth line will be numbered. Note that numbering is one based, not zero based. linenumbering.extension boolean linenumbering.extension Enable the line numbering extension <xsl:param name="linenumbering.extension" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, verbatim environments (address, literallayout, programlisting, screen, synopsis) that specify line numbering will have line numbers. linenumbering.separator string linenumbering.separator Specify a separator between line numbers and lines <xsl:param name="linenumbering.separator"><xsl:text> </xsl:text></xsl:param> Description The separator is inserted between line numbers and lines in the verbatim environment. The default value is a single white space. Note the interaction with linenumbering.width linenumbering.width integer linenumbering.width Indicates the width of line numbers <xsl:param name="linenumbering.width">3</xsl:param> Description If line numbering is enabled, line numbers will appear right justified in a field "width" characters wide. tablecolumns.extension boolean tablecolumns.extension Enable the table columns extension function <xsl:param name="tablecolumns.extension" select="1"></xsl:param> Description The table columns extension function adjusts the widths of table columns in the HTML result to more accurately reflect the specifications in the CALS table. textinsert.extension boolean textinsert.extension Enables the textinsert extension element <xsl:param name="textinsert.extension" select="1"></xsl:param> Description The textinsert extension element inserts the contents of a file into the result tree (as text). To use the textinsert extension element, you must use either Saxon or Xalan as your XSLT processor (it doesn’t work with xsltproc), along with either the DocBook Saxon extensions or DocBook Xalan extensions (for more information about those extensions, see DocBook Saxon Extensions and DocBook Xalan Extensions), and you must set both the use.extensions and textinsert.extension parameters to 1. As an alternative to using the textinsert element, consider using an Xinclude element with the parse="text" attribute and value specified, as detailed in Using XInclude for text inclusions. See Also You can also use the dbhtml-include href processing instruction to insert external files — both files containing plain text and files with markup content (including HTML content). More information For how-to documentation on inserting contents of external code files and other text files into output, see External code files. For guidelines on inserting contents of HTML files into output, see Inserting external HTML code. textdata.default.encoding string textdata.default.encoding Default encoding of external text files which are included using textdata element <xsl:param name="textdata.default.encoding"></xsl:param> Description Specifies the encoding of any external text files included using textdata element. This value is used only when you do not specify encoding by the appropriate attribute directly on textdata. An empty string is interpreted as the system default encoding. use.extensions boolean use.extensions Enable extensions <xsl:param name="use.extensions" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, extensions may be used. Each extension is further controlled by its own parameter. But if use.extensions is zero, no extensions will be used. Automatic labelling appendix.autolabel list 0none 11,2,3... AA,B,C... aa,b,c... ii,ii,iii... II,II,III... appendix.autolabel Specifies the labeling format for Appendix titles <xsl:param name="appendix.autolabel">A</xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then appendices will be numbered using the parameter value as the number format if the value matches one of the following: 1 or arabic Arabic numeration (1, 2, 3 ...). A or upperalpha Uppercase letter numeration (A, B, C ...). a or loweralpha Lowercase letter numeration (a, b, c ...). I or upperroman Uppercase roman numeration (I, II, III ...). i or lowerroman Lowercase roman letter numeration (i, ii, iii ...). Any nonzero value other than the above will generate the default number format (upperalpha). chapter.autolabel list 0none 11,2,3... AA,B,C... aa,b,c... ii,ii,iii... II,II,III... chapter.autolabel Specifies the labeling format for Chapter titles <xsl:param name="chapter.autolabel" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then chapters will be numbered using the parameter value as the number format if the value matches one of the following: 1 or arabic Arabic numeration (1, 2, 3 ...). A or upperalpha Uppercase letter numeration (A, B, C ...). a or loweralpha Lowercase letter numeration (a, b, c ...). I or upperroman Uppercase roman numeration (I, II, III ...). i or lowerroman Lowercase roman letter numeration (i, ii, iii ...). Any nonzero value other than the above will generate the default number format (arabic). part.autolabel list 0none 11,2,3... AA,B,C... aa,b,c... ii,ii,iii... II,II,III... part.autolabel Specifies the labeling format for Part titles <xsl:param name="part.autolabel">I</xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then parts will be numbered using the parameter value as the number format if the value matches one of the following: 1 or arabic Arabic numeration (1, 2, 3 ...). A or upperalpha Uppercase letter numeration (A, B, C ...). a or loweralpha Lowercase letter numeration (a, b, c ...). I or upperroman Uppercase roman numeration (I, II, III ...). i or lowerroman Lowercase roman letter numeration (i, ii, iii ...). Any nonzero value other than the above will generate the default number format (upperroman). reference.autolabel list 0none 11,2,3... AA,B,C... aa,b,c... ii,ii,iii... II,II,III... reference.autolabel Specifies the labeling format for Reference titles <xsl:param name="reference.autolabel">I</xsl:param> Description If non-zero, references will be numbered using the parameter value as the number format if the value matches one of the following: 1 or arabic Arabic numeration (1, 2, 3 ...). A or upperalpha Uppercase letter numeration (A, B, C ...). a or loweralpha Lowercase letter numeration (a, b, c ...). I or upperroman Uppercase roman numeration (I, II, III ...). i or lowerroman Lowercase roman letter numeration (i, ii, iii ...). Any non-zero value other than the above will generate the default number format (upperroman). preface.autolabel list 0none 11,2,3... AA,B,C... aa,b,c... ii,ii,iii... II,II,III... preface.autolabel Specifices the labeling format for Preface titles <xsl:param name="preface.autolabel" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero then prefaces will be numbered using the parameter value as the number format if the value matches one of the following: 1 or arabic Arabic numeration (1, 2, 3 ...). A or upperalpha Uppercase letter numeration (A, B, C ...). a or loweralpha Lowercase letter numeration (a, b, c ...). I or upperroman Uppercase roman numeration (I, II, III ...). i or lowerroman Lowercase roman letter numeration (i, ii, iii ...). Any nonzero value other than the above will generate the default number format (arabic). section.autolabel boolean section.autolabel Are sections enumerated? <xsl:param name="section.autolabel" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If true (non-zero), unlabeled sections will be enumerated. section.autolabel.max.depth integer section.autolabel.max.depth The deepest level of sections that are numbered. <xsl:param name="section.autolabel.max.depth">8</xsl:param> Description When section numbering is turned on by the section.autolabel parameter, then this parameter controls the depth of section nesting that is numbered. Sections nested to a level deeper than this value will not be numbered. section.label.includes.component.label boolean section.label.includes.component.label Do section labels include the component label? <xsl:param name="section.label.includes.component.label" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, section labels are prefixed with the label of the component that contains them. label.from.part boolean label.from.part Renumber components in each part? <xsl:param name="label.from.part" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If label.from.part is non-zero, then numbering of components — preface, chapter, appendix, and reference (when reference occurs at the component level) — is re-started within each part. If label.from.part is zero (the default), numbering of components is not re-started within each part; instead, components are numbered sequentially throughout each book, regardless of whether or not they occur within part instances. component.label.includes.part.label boolean component.label.includes.part.label Do component labels include the part label? <xsl:param name="component.label.includes.part.label" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, number labels for chapter, appendix, and other component elements are prefixed with the label of the part element that contains them. So you might see Chapter II.3 instead of Chapter 3. Also, the labels for formal elements such as table and figure will include the part label. If there is no part element container, then no prefix is generated. This feature is most useful when the label.from.part parameter is turned on. In that case, there would be more than one chapter 1, and the extra part label prefix will identify each chapter unambiguously. XSLT Processing rootid string rootid Specify the root element to format <xsl:param name="rootid"></xsl:param> Description If rootid is not empty, it must be the value of an ID that occurs in the document being formatted. The entire document will be loaded and parsed, but formatting will begin at the element identified, rather than at the root. For example, this allows you to process only chapter 4 of a book. Because the entire document is available to the processor, automatic numbering, cross references, and other dependencies are correctly resolved. Meta/*Info make.single.year.ranges boolean make.single.year.ranges Print single-year ranges (e.g., 1998-1999) <xsl:param name="make.single.year.ranges" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, year ranges that span a single year will be printed in range notation (1998-1999) instead of discrete notation (1998, 1999). make.year.ranges boolean make.year.ranges Collate copyright years into ranges? <xsl:param name="make.year.ranges" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, multiple copyright year elements will be collated into ranges. This works only if each year number is put into a separate year element. The copyright element permits multiple year elements. If a year element contains a dash or a comma, then that year element will not be merged into any range. author.othername.in.middle boolean author.othername.in.middle Is othername in author a middle name? <xsl:param name="author.othername.in.middle" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the othername of an author appears between the firstname and surname. Otherwise, othername is suppressed. Reference Pages funcsynopsis.decoration boolean funcsynopsis.decoration Decorate elements of a funcsynopsis? <xsl:param name="funcsynopsis.decoration" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, elements of the funcsynopsis will be decorated (e.g. rendered as bold or italic text). The decoration is controlled by templates that can be redefined in a customization layer. funcsynopsis.style list ansi kr funcsynopsis.style What style of funcsynopsis should be generated? <xsl:param name="funcsynopsis.style">kr</xsl:param> Description If funcsynopsis.style is ansi, ANSI-style function synopses are generated for a funcsynopsis, otherwise K&R-style function synopses are generated. function.parens boolean function.parens Generate parens after a function? <xsl:param name="function.parens" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the formatting of a function element will include generated parentheses. refentry.generate.name boolean refentry.generate.name Output NAME header before refnames? <xsl:param name="refentry.generate.name" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, a "NAME" section title is output before the list of refnames. This parameter and refentry.generate.title are mutually exclusive. This means that if you change this parameter to zero, you should set refentry.generate.title to non-zero unless you want get quite strange output. refentry.generate.title boolean refentry.generate.title Output title before refnames? <xsl:param name="refentry.generate.title" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the reference page title or first name is output before the list of refnames. This parameter and refentry.generate.name are mutually exclusive. This means that if you change this parameter to non-zero, you should set refentry.generate.name to zero unless you want get quite strange output. refentry.pagebreak boolean refentry.pagebreak Start each refentry on a new page <xsl:param name="refentry.pagebreak" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero (the default), each refentry element will start on a new page. If zero, a page break will not be generated between refentry elements. The exception is when the refentry elements are children of a part element, in which case the page breaks are always retained. That is because a part element does not generate a page-sequence for its children, so each refentry must start its own page-sequence. refentry.title.properties attribute set refentry.title.properties Title properties for a refentry title <xsl:attribute-set name="refentry.title.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-family"> <xsl:value-of select="$title.font.family"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-size">18pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-weight">bold</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="hyphenate">false</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="keep-with-next.within-column">always</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0.8em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">1.0em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">1.2em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.optimum">0.5em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.minimum">0.4em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.maximum">0.6em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="start-indent"><xsl:value-of select="$title.margin.left"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Formatting properties applied to the title generated for the refnamediv part of output for refentry when the value of the refentry.generate.title parameter is non-zero. The font size is supplied by the appropriate section.levelX.title.properties attribute-set, computed from the location of the refentry in the section hierarchy. This parameter has no effect on the the title generated for the refnamediv part of output for refentry when the value of the refentry.generate.name parameter is non-zero. By default, that title is formatted with the same properties as the titles for all other first-level children of refentry. refentry.xref.manvolnum boolean refentry.xref.manvolnum Output manvolnum as part of refentry cross-reference? <xsl:param name="refentry.xref.manvolnum" select="1"></xsl:param> Description if non-zero, the manvolnum is used when cross-referencing refentrys, either with xref or citerefentry. refclass.suppress boolean refclass.suppress Suppress display of refclass contents? <xsl:param name="refclass.suppress" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If the value of refclass.suppress is non-zero, then display of refclass contents is suppressed in output. Tables default.table.width length default.table.width The default width of tables <xsl:param name="default.table.width"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, this value will be used for the width attribute on tables that do not specify an alternate width (with the dbhtml table-width or dbfo table-width processing instruction). nominal.table.width length nominal.table.width The (absolute) nominal width of tables <xsl:param name="nominal.table.width">6in</xsl:param> Description In order to convert CALS column widths into HTML column widths, it is sometimes necessary to have an absolute table width to use for conversion of mixed absolute and relative widths. This value must be an absolute length (not a percentage). default.table.frame string default.table.frame The default framing of tables <xsl:param name="default.table.frame">all</xsl:param> Description This value will be used when there is no frame attribute on the table. default.table.rules string default.table.rules The default column and row rules for tables using HTML markup <xsl:param name="default.table.rules">none</xsl:param> Description Tables using HTML markup elements can use an attribute named rules on the table or informaltable element to specify whether column and row border rules should be displayed. This parameter lets you specify a global default style for all HTML tables that don't otherwise have that attribute. These are the supported values: all Rules will appear between all rows and columns. rows Rules will appear between rows only. cols Rules will appear between columns only. groups Rules will appear between row groups (thead, tfoot, tbody). No support for rules between column groups yet. none No rules. This is the default value. The border after the last row and the border after the last column are not affected by this setting. Those borders are controlled by the frame attribute on the table element. table.cell.padding attribute set table.cell.padding Specifies the padding of table cells <xsl:attribute-set name="table.cell.padding"> <xsl:attribute name="padding-start">2pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="padding-end">2pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="padding-top">2pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="padding-bottom">2pt</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Specifies the padding of table cells. table.frame.border.thickness length table.frame.border.thickness Specifies the thickness of the frame border <xsl:param name="table.frame.border.thickness">0.5pt</xsl:param> Description Specifies the thickness of the border on the table's frame. table.frame.border.style list none solid dotted dashed double groove ridge inset outset solid table.frame.border.style Specifies the border style of table frames <xsl:param name="table.frame.border.style">solid</xsl:param> Description Specifies the border style of table frames. table.frame.border.color color table.frame.border.color Specifies the border color of table frames <xsl:param name="table.frame.border.color">black</xsl:param> Description Specifies the border color of table frames. table.cell.border.thickness length table.cell.border.thickness Specifies the thickness of table cell borders <xsl:param name="table.cell.border.thickness">0.5pt</xsl:param> Description If non-zero, specifies the thickness of borders on table cells. The units are points. See CSS To control properties of cell borders in HTML output, you must also turn on the table.borders.with.css parameter. table.cell.border.style list none solid dotted dashed double groove ridge inset outset solid table.cell.border.style Specifies the border style of table cells <xsl:param name="table.cell.border.style">solid</xsl:param> Description Specifies the border style of table cells. To control properties of cell borders in HTML output, you must also turn on the table.borders.with.css parameter. table.cell.border.color color table.cell.border.color Specifies the border color of table cells <xsl:param name="table.cell.border.color">black</xsl:param> Description Set the color of table cell borders. If non-zero, the value is used for the border coloration. See CSS. A color is either a keyword or a numerical RGB specification. Keywords are aqua, black, blue, fuchsia, gray, green, lime, maroon, navy, olive, orange, purple, red, silver, teal, white, and yellow. To control properties of cell borders in HTML output, you must also turn on the table.borders.with.css parameter. table.table.properties attribute set table.table.properties Properties associated with a table <xsl:attribute-set name="table.table.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="border-before-width.conditionality">retain</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="border-collapse">collapse</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description The styling for tables. This parameter should really have been called table.properties, but that parameter name was inadvertently established for the block-level properties of the table as a whole. See also table.properties. Linking current.docid string current.docid targetdoc identifier for the document being processed <xsl:param name="current.docid"></xsl:param> Description When olinks between documents are resolved for HTML output, the stylesheet can compute the relative path between the current document and the target document. The stylesheet needs to know the targetdoc identifiers for both documents, as they appear in the target.database.document database file. This parameter passes to the stylesheet the targetdoc identifier of the current document, since that identifier does not appear in the document itself. This parameter can also be used for print output. If an olink's targetdoc id differs from the current.docid, then the stylesheet can append the target document's title to the generated olink text. That identifies to the reader that the link is to a different document, not the current document. See also olink.doctitle to enable that feature. collect.xref.targets list no yes only collect.xref.targets Controls whether cross reference data is collected <xsl:param name="collect.xref.targets">no</xsl:param> Description In order to resolve olinks efficiently, the stylesheets can generate an external data file containing information about all potential cross reference endpoints in a document. This parameter determines whether the collection process is run when the document is processed by the stylesheet. The default value is no, which means the data file is not generated during processing. The other choices are yes, which means the data file is created and the document is processed for output, and only, which means the data file is created but the document is not processed for output. See also targets.filename. insert.olink.page.number list no yes maybe insert.olink.page.number Turns page numbers in olinks on and off <xsl:param name="insert.olink.page.number">no</xsl:param> Description The value of this parameter determines if cross references made between documents with olink will include page number citations. In most cases this is only applicable to references in printed output. The parameter has three possible values. no No page number references will be generated for olinks. yes Page number references will be generated for all olink references. The style of page reference may be changed if an xrefstyle attribute is used. maybe Page number references will not be generated for an olink element unless it has an xrefstyle attribute whose value specifies a page reference. Olinks that point to targets within the same document are treated as xrefs, and controlled by the insert.xref.page.number parameter. Page number references for olinks to external documents can only be inserted if the information exists in the olink database. This means each olink target element (div or obj) must have a page attribute whose value is its page number in the target document. The XSL stylesheets are not able to extract that information during processing because pages have not yet been created in XSLT transformation. Only the XSL-FO processor knows what page each element is placed on. Therefore some postprocessing must take place to populate page numbers in the olink database. insert.olink.pdf.frag boolean insert.olink.pdf.frag Add fragment identifiers for links into PDF files <xsl:param name="insert.olink.pdf.frag" select="0"></xsl:param> Description The value of this parameter determines whether the cross reference URIs to PDF documents made with olink will include fragment identifiers. When forming a URI to link to a PDF document, a fragment identifier (typically a '#' followed by an id value) appended to the PDF filename can be used by the PDF viewer to open the PDF file to a location within the document instead of the first page. However, not all PDF files have id values embedded in them, and not all PDF viewers can handle fragment identifiers. If insert.olink.pdf.frag is set to a non-zero value, then any olink targeting a PDF file will have the fragment identifier appended to the URI. The URI is formed by concatenating the value of the olink.base.uri parameter, the value of the baseuri attribute from the document element in the olink database with the matching targetdoc value, and the value of the href attribute for the targeted element in the olink database. The href attribute contains the fragment identifier. If insert.olink.pdf.frag is set to zero (the default value), then the href attribute from the olink database is not appended to PDF olinks, so the fragment identifier is left off. A PDF olink is any olink for which the baseuri attribute from the matching document element in the olink database ends with '.pdf'. Any other olinks will still have the fragment identifier added. olink.base.uri uri olink.base.uri Base URI used in olink hrefs <xsl:param name="olink.base.uri"></xsl:param> Description When cross reference data is collected for resolving olinks, it may be necessary to prepend a base URI to each target's href. This parameter lets you set that base URI when cross reference data is collected. This feature is needed when you want to link to a document that is processed without chunking. The output filename for such a document is not known to the XSL stylesheet; the only target information consists of fragment identifiers such as #idref. To enable the resolution of olinks between documents, you should pass the name of the HTML output file as the value of this parameter. Then the hrefs recorded in the cross reference data collection look like outfile.html#idref, which can be reached as links from other documents. olink.debug boolean olink.debug Turn on debugging messages for olinks <xsl:param name="olink.debug" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then each olink will generate several messages about how it is being resolved during processing. This is useful when an olink does not resolve properly and the standard error messages are not sufficient to find the problem. You may need to read through the olink XSL templates to understand the context for some of the debug messages. olink.doctitle list no yes maybe olink.doctitle show the document title for external olinks? <xsl:param name="olink.doctitle">no</xsl:param> Description When olinks between documents are resolved, the generated text may not make it clear that the reference is to another document. It is possible for the stylesheets to append the other document's title to external olinks. For this to happen, two parameters must be set. This olink.doctitle parameter should be set to either yes or maybe to enable this feature. And you should also set the current.docid parameter to the document id for the document currently being processed for output. Then if an olink's targetdoc id differs from the current.docid value, the stylesheet knows that it is a reference to another document and can append the target document's title to the generated olink text. The text for the target document's title is copied from the olink database from the ttl element of the top-level div for that document. If that ttl element is missing or empty, no title is output. The supported values for olink.doctitle are: yes Always insert the title to the target document if it is not the current document. no Never insert the title to the target document, even if requested in an xrefstyle attribute. maybe Only insert the title to the target document, if requested in an xrefstyle attribute. An xrefstyle attribute may override the global setting for individual olinks. The following values are supported in an xrefstyle attribute using the select: syntax: docname Insert the target document name for this olink using the docname gentext template, but only if the value of olink.doctitle is not no. docnamelong Insert the target document name for this olink using the docnamelong gentext template, but only if the value of olink.doctitle is not no. nodocname Omit the target document name even if the value of olink.doctitle is yes. Another way of inserting the target document name for a single olink is to employ an xrefstyle attribute using the template: syntax. The %o placeholder (the letter o, not zero) in such a template will be filled in with the target document's title when it is processed. This will occur regardless of the value of olink.doctitle. Note that prior to version 1.66 of the XSL stylesheets, the allowed values for this parameter were 0 and 1. Those values are still supported and mapped to 'no' and 'yes', respectively. olink.lang.fallback.sequence string olink.lang.fallback.sequence look up translated documents if olink not found? <xsl:param name="olink.lang.fallback.sequence"></xsl:param> Description This parameter defines a list of lang values to search among to resolve olinks. Normally an olink tries to resolve to a document in the same language as the olink itself. The language of an olink is determined by its nearest ancestor element with a lang attribute, otherwise the value of the l10n.gentext.default.lang parameter. An olink database can contain target data for the same document in multiple languages. Each set of data has the same value for the targetdoc attribute in the document element in the database, but with a different lang attribute value. When an olink is being resolved, the target is first sought in the document with the same language as the olink. If no match is found there, then this parameter is consulted for additional languages to try. The olink.lang.fallback.sequence must be a whitespace separated list of lang values to try. The first one with a match in the olink database is used. The default value is empty. For example, a document might be written in German and contain an olink with targetdoc="adminguide". When the document is processed, the processor first looks for a target dataset in the olink database starting with: <document targetdoc="adminguide" lang="de">. If there is no such element, then the olink.lang.fallback.sequence parameter is consulted. If its value is, for example, fr en, then the processor next looks for targetdoc="adminguide" lang="fr", and then for targetdoc="adminguide" lang="en". If there is still no match, it looks for targetdoc="adminguide" with no lang attribute. This parameter is useful when a set of documents is only partially translated, or is in the process of being translated. If a target of an olink has not yet been translated, then this parameter permits the processor to look for the document in other languages. This assumes the reader would rather have a link to a document in a different language than to have a broken link. olink.properties attribute set olink.properties Properties associated with the cross-reference text of an olink. <xsl:attribute-set name="olink.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="show-destination">replace</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This attribute set is applied to the fo:basic-link element of an olink. It is not applied to the optional page number or optional title of the external document. prefer.internal.olink boolean prefer.internal.olink Prefer a local olink reference to an external reference <xsl:param name="prefer.internal.olink" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If you are re-using XML content modules in multiple documents, you may want to redirect some of your olinks. This parameter permits you to redirect an olink to the current document. For example: you are writing documentation for a product, which includes 3 manuals: a little installation booklet (booklet.xml), a user guide (user.xml), and a reference manual (reference.xml). All 3 documents begin with the same introduction section (intro.xml) that contains a reference to the customization section (custom.xml) which is included in both user.xml and reference.xml documents. How do you write the link to custom.xml in intro.xml so that it is interpreted correctly in all 3 documents? If you use xref, it will fail in user.xml. If you use olink (pointing to reference.xml), the reference in user.xml will point to the customization section of the reference manual, while it is actually available in user.xml. If you set the prefer.internal.olink parameter to a non-zero value, then the processor will first look in the olink database for the olink's targetptr attribute value in document matching the current.docid parameter value. If it isn't found there, then it tries the document in the database with the targetdoc value that matches the olink's targetdoc attribute. This feature permits an olink reference to resolve to the current document if there is an element with an id matching the olink's targetptr value. The current document's olink data must be included in the target database for this to work. There is a potential for incorrect links if the same id attribute value is used for different content in different documents. Some of your olinks may be redirected to the current document when they shouldn't be. It is not possible to control individual olink instances. target.database.document uri target.database.document Name of master database file for resolving olinks <xsl:param name="target.database.document">olinkdb.xml</xsl:param> Description To resolve olinks between documents, the stylesheets use a master database document that identifies the target datafiles for all the documents within the scope of the olinks. This parameter value is the URI of the master document to be read during processing to resolve olinks. The default value is olinkdb.xml. The data structure of the file is defined in the targetdatabase.dtd DTD. The database file provides the high level elements to record the identifiers, locations, and relationships of documents. The cross reference data for individual documents is generally pulled into the database using system entity references or XIncludes. See also targets.filename. targets.filename string targets.filename Name of cross reference targets data file <xsl:param name="targets.filename">target.db</xsl:param> Description In order to resolve olinks efficiently, the stylesheets can generate an external data file containing information about all potential cross reference endpoints in a document. This parameter lets you change the name of the generated file from the default name target.db. The name must agree with that used in the target database used to resolve olinks during processing. See also target.database.document. use.local.olink.style boolean use.local.olink.style Process olinks using xref style of current document <xsl:param name="use.local.olink.style" select="0"></xsl:param> Description When cross reference data is collected for use by olinks, the data for each potential target includes one field containing a completely assembled cross reference string, as if it were an xref generated in that document. Other fields record the separate title, number, and element name of each target. When an olink is formed to a target from another document, the olink resolves to that preassembled string by default. If the use.local.olink.style parameter is set to non-zero, then instead the cross reference string is formed again from the target title, number, and element name, using the stylesheet processing the targeting document. Then olinks will match the xref style in the targeting document rather than in the target document. If both documents are processed with the same stylesheet, then the results will be the same. Cross References insert.xref.page.number list no yes maybe insert.xref.page.number Turns page numbers in xrefs on and off <xsl:param name="insert.xref.page.number">no</xsl:param> Description The value of this parameter determines if cross references (xrefs) in printed output will include page number citations. It has three possible values. no No page number references will be generated. yes Page number references will be generated for all xref elements. The style of page reference may be changed if an xrefstyle attribute is used. maybe Page number references will not be generated for an xref element unless it has an xrefstyle attribute whose value specifies a page reference. xref.properties attribute set xref.properties Properties associated with cross-reference text <xsl:attribute-set name="xref.properties"> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This attribute set is used to set properties on cross reference text. xref.label-title.separator string xref.label-title.separator Punctuation or space separating label from title in xref <xsl:param name="xref.label-title.separator">: </xsl:param> Description This parameter allows you to control the punctuation of certain types of generated cross reference text. When cross reference text is generated for an xref or olink element using an xrefstyle attribute that makes use of the select: feature, and the selected components include both label and title, then the value of this parameter is inserted between label and title in the output. xref.label-page.separator string xref.label-page.separator Punctuation or space separating label from page number in xref <xsl:param name="xref.label-page.separator"><xsl:text> </xsl:text></xsl:param> Description This parameter allows you to control the punctuation of certain types of generated cross reference text. When cross reference text is generated for an xref or olink element using an xrefstyle attribute that makes use of the select: feature, and the selected components include both label and page but no title, then the value of this parameter is inserted between label and page number in the output. If a title is included, then other separators are used. xref.title-page.separator string xref.title-page.separator Punctuation or space separating title from page number in xref <xsl:param name="xref.title-page.separator"><xsl:text> </xsl:text></xsl:param> Description This parameter allows you to control the punctuation of certain types of generated cross reference text. When cross reference text is generated for an xref or olink element using an xrefstyle attribute that makes use of the select: feature, and the selected components include both title and page number, then the value of this parameter is inserted between title and page number in the output. insert.link.page.number list no yes maybe insert.link.page.number Turns page numbers in link elements on and off <xsl:param name="insert.link.page.number">no</xsl:param> Description The value of this parameter determines if cross references using the link element in printed output will include standard page number citations. It has three possible values. no No page number references will be generated. yes Page number references will be generated for all link elements. The style of page reference may be changed if an xrefstyle attribute is used. maybe Page number references will not be generated for a link element unless it has an xrefstyle attribute whose value specifies a page reference. Although the xrefstyle attribute can be used to turn the page reference on or off, it cannot be used to control the formatting of the page number as it can in xref. In link it will always format with the style established by the gentext template with name="page.citation" in the l:context name="xref". Lists compact.list.item.spacing attribute set compact.list.item.spacing What space do you want between list items (when spacing="compact")? <xsl:attribute-set name="compact.list.item.spacing"> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">0em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">0.2em</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Specify what spacing you want between each list item when spacing is compact. itemizedlist.properties attribute set itemizedlist.properties Properties that apply to each list-block generated by itemizedlist. <xsl:attribute-set name="itemizedlist.properties" use-attribute-sets="list.block.properties"> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Properties that apply to each fo:list-block generated by itemizedlist. itemizedlist.label.properties attribute set itemizedlist.label.properties Properties that apply to each label inside itemized list. <xsl:attribute-set name="itemizedlist.label.properties"> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Properties that apply to each label inside itemized list.

You can override the default value on any particular list with the “dbfo” processing instruction using the “label-width” pseudoattribute. list.block.properties attribute set list.block.properties Properties that apply to each list-block generated by list. <xsl:attribute-set name="list.block.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="provisional-label-separation">0.2em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="provisional-distance-between-starts">1.5em</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Properties that apply to each fo:list-block generated by itemizedlist/orderedlist. list.block.spacing attribute set list.block.spacing What spacing do you want before and after lists? <xsl:attribute-set name="list.block.spacing"> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0.8em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">1.2em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.minimum">0.8em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.maximum">1.2em</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Specify the spacing required before and after a list. It is necessary to specify the space after a list block because lists can come inside of paras. list.item.spacing attribute set list.item.spacing What space do you want between list items? <xsl:attribute-set name="list.item.spacing"> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0.8em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">1.2em</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Specify what spacing you want between each list item. orderedlist.properties attribute set orderedlist.properties Properties that apply to each list-block generated by orderedlist. <xsl:attribute-set name="orderedlist.properties" use-attribute-sets="list.block.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="provisional-distance-between-starts">2em</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Properties that apply to each fo:list-block generated by orderedlist. orderedlist.label.properties attribute set orderedlist.label.properties Properties that apply to each label inside ordered list. <xsl:attribute-set name="orderedlist.label.properties"> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Properties that apply to each label inside ordered list. E.g.: <xsl:attribute-set name="orderedlist.label.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="text-align">right</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> orderedlist.label.width length orderedlist.label.width The default width of the label (number) in an ordered list. <xsl:param name="orderedlist.label.width">1.2em</xsl:param> Description Specifies the default width of the label (usually a number or sequence of numbers) in an ordered list. You can override the default value on any particular list with the “dbfo” processing instruction using the “label-width” pseudoattribute. variablelist.max.termlength number variablelist.max.termlength Specifies the longest term in variablelists <xsl:param name="variablelist.max.termlength">24</xsl:param> Description In variablelists, the listitem is indented to leave room for the term elements. That indent may be computed if it is not specified with a termlength attribute on the variablelist element. The computation counts characters in the term elements in the list to find the longest term. However, some terms are very long and would produce extreme indents. This parameter lets you set a maximum character count. Any terms longer than the maximum would line wrap. The default value is 24. The character counts are converted to physical widths by multiplying by 0.50em. There will be some variability in how many actual characters fit in the space since some characters are wider than others. variablelist.term.separator string variablelist.term.separator Text to separate terms within a multi-term varlistentry <xsl:param name="variablelist.term.separator">, </xsl:param> Description When a varlistentry contains multiple term elements, the string specified in the value of the variablelist.term.separator parameter is placed after each term except the last. To generate a line break between multiple terms in a varlistentry, set a non-zero value for the variablelist.term.break.after parameter. If you do so, you may also want to set the value of the variablelist.term.separator parameter to an empty string (to suppress rendering of the default comma and space after each term). variablelist.term.properties attribute set variablelist.term.properties To add properties to the term elements in a variablelist. <xsl:attribute-set name="variablelist.term.properties"> </xsl:attribute-set> Description These properties are added to the block containing a term in a variablelist. Use this attribute-set to set font properties or alignment, for example. variablelist.term.break.after boolean variablelist.term.break.after Generate line break after each term within a multi-term varlistentry? <xsl:param name="variablelist.term.break.after">0</xsl:param> Description Set a non-zero value for the variablelist.term.break.after parameter to generate a line break between terms in a multi-term varlistentry. If you set a non-zero value for variablelist.term.break.after, you may also want to set the value of the variablelist.term.separator parameter to an empty string (to suppress rendering of the default comma and space after each term). QAndASet qandadiv.autolabel boolean qandadiv.autolabel Are divisions in QAndASets enumerated? <xsl:param name="qandadiv.autolabel" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, unlabeled qandadivs will be enumerated. qanda.inherit.numeration boolean qanda.inherit.numeration Does enumeration of QandASet components inherit the numeration of parent elements? <xsl:param name="qanda.inherit.numeration" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, numbered qandadiv elements and question and answer inherit the enumeration of the ancestors of the qandaset. qanda.defaultlabel list number qanda none qanda.defaultlabel Sets the default for defaultlabel on QandASet. <xsl:param name="qanda.defaultlabel">number</xsl:param> Description If no defaultlabel attribute is specified on a qandaset, this value is used. It is generally one of the legal values for the defaultlabel attribute (none, number or qanda), or one of the additional stylesheet-specific values (qnumber or qnumberanda). The default value is 'number'. The values are rendered as follows: qanda questions are labeled "Q:" and answers are labeled "A:". number The questions are enumerated and the answers are not labeled. qnumber The questions are labeled "Q:" followed by a number, and answers are not labeled. When sections are numbered, adding a label to the number distinguishes the question numbers from the section numbers. This value is not allowed in the defaultlabel attribute of a qandaset element. qnumberanda The questions are labeled "Q:" followed by a number, and the answers are labeled "A:". When sections are numbered, adding a label to the number distinguishes the question numbers from the section numbers. This value is not allowed in the defaultlabel attribute of a qandaset element. none No distinguishing label precedes Questions or Answers. qanda.in.toc boolean qanda.in.toc Should qandaentry questions appear in the document table of contents? <xsl:param name="qanda.in.toc" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If true (non-zero), then the generated table of contents for a document will include qandaset titles, qandadiv titles, and question elements. The default value (zero) excludes them from the TOC. This parameter does not affect any tables of contents that may be generated inside a qandaset or qandadiv. qanda.nested.in.toc boolean qanda.nested.in.toc Should nested answer/qandaentry instances appear in TOC? <xsl:param name="qanda.nested.in.toc" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, instances of qandaentry that are children of answer elements are shown in the TOC. Bibliography bibliography.style list normal iso690 bibliography.style Style used for formatting of biblioentries. <xsl:param name="bibliography.style">normal</xsl:param> Description Currently only normal and iso690 styles are supported. In order to use ISO690 style to the full extent you might need to use additional markup described on the following WiKi page. biblioentry.item.separator string biblioentry.item.separator Text to separate bibliography entries <xsl:param name="biblioentry.item.separator">. </xsl:param> Description Text to separate bibliography entries bibliography.collection string bibliography.collection Name of the bibliography collection file <xsl:param name="bibliography.collection">http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/bibliography/bibliography.xml</xsl:param> Description Maintaining bibliography entries across a set of documents is tedious, time consuming, and error prone. It makes much more sense, usually, to store all of the bibliography entries in a single place and simply extract the ones you need in each document. That's the purpose of the bibliography.collection parameter. To setup a global bibliography database, follow these steps: First, create a stand-alone bibliography document that contains all of the documents that you wish to reference. Make sure that each bibliography entry (whether you use biblioentry or bibliomixed) has an ID. My global bibliography, ~/bibliography.xml begins like this: <!DOCTYPE bibliography PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd"> <bibliography><title>References</title> <bibliomixed id="xml-rec"><abbrev>XML 1.0</abbrev>Tim Bray, Jean Paoli, C. M. Sperberg-McQueen, and Eve Maler, editors. <citetitle><ulink url="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml">Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 Second Edition</ulink></citetitle>. World Wide Web Consortium, 2000. </bibliomixed> <bibliomixed id="xml-names"><abbrev>Namespaces</abbrev>Tim Bray, Dave Hollander, and Andrew Layman, editors. <citetitle><ulink url="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/">Namespaces in XML</ulink></citetitle>. World Wide Web Consortium, 1999. </bibliomixed>  </bibliography> When you create a bibliography in your document, simply provide empty bibliomixed entries for each document that you wish to cite. Make sure that these elements have the same ID as the corresponding real entry in your global bibliography. For example: <bibliography><title>Bibliography</title> <bibliomixed id="xml-rec"/> <bibliomixed id="xml-names"/> <bibliomixed id="DKnuth86">Donald E. Knuth. <citetitle>Computers and Typesetting: Volume B, TeX: The Program</citetitle>. Addison-Wesley, 1986. ISBN 0-201-13437-3. </bibliomixed> <bibliomixed id="relaxng"/> </bibliography> Note that it's perfectly acceptable to mix entries from your global bibliography with normal entries. You can use xref or other elements to cross-reference your bibliography entries in exactly the same way you do now. Finally, when you are ready to format your document, simply set the bibliography.collection parameter (in either a customization layer or directly through your processor's interface) to point to your global bibliography. The stylesheets will format the bibliography in your document as if all of the entries referenced appeared there literally. bibliography.numbered boolean bibliography.numbered Should bibliography entries be numbered? <xsl:param name="bibliography.numbered" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero bibliography entries will be numbered biblioentry.properties attribute set biblioentry.properties To set the style for biblioentry. <xsl:attribute-set name="biblioentry.properties" use-attribute-sets="normal.para.spacing"> <xsl:attribute name="start-indent">0.5in</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="text-indent">-0.5in</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description How do you want biblioentry styled? Set the font-size, weight, space-above and space-below, indents, etc. to the style required Glossary glossterm.auto.link boolean glossterm.auto.link Generate links from glossterm to glossentry automatically? <xsl:param name="glossterm.auto.link" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, links from inline glossterms to the corresponding glossentry elements in a glossary or glosslist will be automatically generated. This is useful when your glossterms are consistent and you don't want to add links manually. The automatic link generation feature is not used on glossterm elements that have a linkend attribute. firstterm.only.link boolean firstterm.only.link Does automatic glossterm linking only apply to firstterms? <xsl:param name="firstterm.only.link" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, only firstterms will be automatically linked to the glossary. If glossary linking is not enabled, this parameter has no effect. glossary.collection string glossary.collection Name of the glossary collection file <xsl:param name="glossary.collection"></xsl:param> Description Glossaries maintained independently across a set of documents are likely to become inconsistent unless considerable effort is expended to keep them in sync. It makes much more sense, usually, to store all of the glossary entries in a single place and simply extract the ones you need in each document. That's the purpose of the glossary.collection parameter. To setup a global glossary database, follow these steps: Setting Up the Glossary Database First, create a stand-alone glossary document that contains all of the entries that you wish to reference. Make sure that each glossary entry has an ID. Here's an example glossary: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!DOCTYPE glossary PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd"> <glossary> <glossaryinfo> <editor><firstname>Eric</firstname><surname>Raymond</surname></editor> <title>Jargon File 4.2.3 (abridged)</title> <releaseinfo>Just some test data</releaseinfo> </glossaryinfo> <glossdiv><title>0</title> <glossentry> <glossterm>0</glossterm> <glossdef> <para>Numeric zero, as opposed to the letter `O' (the 15th letter of the English alphabet). In their unmodified forms they look a lot alike, and various kluges invented to make them visually distinct have compounded the confusion. If your zero is center-dotted and letter-O is not, or if letter-O looks almost rectangular but zero looks more like an American football stood on end (or the reverse), you're probably looking at a modern character display (though the dotted zero seems to have originated as an option on IBM 3270 controllers). If your zero is slashed but letter-O is not, you're probably looking at an old-style ASCII graphic set descended from the default typewheel on the venerable ASR-33 Teletype (Scandinavians, for whom /O is a letter, curse this arrangement). (Interestingly, the slashed zero long predates computers; Florian Cajori's monumental "A History of Mathematical Notations" notes that it was used in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries.) If letter-O has a slash across it and the zero does not, your display is tuned for a very old convention used at IBM and a few other early mainframe makers (Scandinavians curse <emphasis>this</emphasis> arrangement even more, because it means two of their letters collide). Some Burroughs/Unisys equipment displays a zero with a <emphasis>reversed</emphasis> slash. Old CDC computers rendered letter O as an unbroken oval and 0 as an oval broken at upper right and lower left. And yet another convention common on early line printers left zero unornamented but added a tail or hook to the letter-O so that it resembled an inverted Q or cursive capital letter-O (this was endorsed by a draft ANSI standard for how to draw ASCII characters, but the final standard changed the distinguisher to a tick-mark in the upper-left corner). Are we sufficiently confused yet?</para> </glossdef> </glossentry> <glossentry> <glossterm>1TBS</glossterm> <glossdef> <para role="accidence"> <phrase role="pronounce"></phrase> <phrase role="partsofspeach">n</phrase> </para> <para>The "One True Brace Style"</para> <glossseealso>indent style</glossseealso> </glossdef> </glossentry>  </glossdiv>  </glossary> Marking Up Glossary Terms That takes care of the glossary database, now you have to get the entries into your document. Unlike bibliography entries, which can be empty, creating placeholder glossary entries would be very tedious. So instead, support for glossary.collection relies on implicit linking. In your source document, simply use firstterm and glossterm to identify the terms you wish to have included in the glossary. The stylesheets assume that you will either set the baseform attribute correctly, or that the content of the element exactly matches a term in your glossary. If you're using a glossary.collection, don't make explicit links on the terms in your document. So, in your document, you might write things like this: <para>This is dummy text, without any real meaning. The point is simply to reference glossary terms like <glossterm>0</glossterm> and the <firstterm baseform="1TBS">One True Brace Style (1TBS)</firstterm>. The <glossterm>1TBS</glossterm>, as you can probably imagine, is a nearly religious issue.</para> If you set the firstterm.only.link parameter, only the terms marked with firstterm will be links. Otherwise, all the terms will be linked. Marking Up the Glossary The glossary itself has to be identified for the stylesheets. For lack of a better choice, the role is used. To identify the glossary as the target for automatic processing, set the role to auto. The title of this glossary (and any other information from the glossaryinfo that's rendered by your stylesheet) will be displayed, but the entries will come from the database. Unfortunately, the glossary can't be empty, so you must put in at least one glossentry. The content of this entry is irrelevant, it will not be rendered: <glossary role="auto"> <glossentry> <glossterm>Irrelevant</glossterm> <glossdef> <para>If you can see this, the document was processed incorrectly. Use the <parameter>glossary.collection</parameter> parameter.</para> </glossdef> </glossentry> </glossary> What about glossary divisions? If your glossary database has glossary divisions and your automatic glossary contains at least one glossdiv, the automic glossary will have divisions. If the glossdiv is missing from either location, no divisions will be rendered. Glossary entries (and divisions, if appropriate) in the glossary will occur in precisely the order they occur in your database. Formatting the Document Finally, when you are ready to format your document, simply set the glossary.collection parameter (in either a customization layer or directly through your processor's interface) to point to your global glossary. The stylesheets will format the glossary in your document as if all of the entries implicilty referenced appeared there literally. Limitations Glossary cross-references within the glossary are not supported. For example, this will not work: <glossentry> <glossterm>gloss-1</glossterm> <glossdef><para>A description that references <glossterm>gloss-2</glossterm>.</para> <glossseealso>gloss-2</glossseealso> </glossdef> </glossentry> If you put glossary cross-references in your glossary that way, you'll get the cryptic error: Warning: glossary.collection specified, but there are 0 automatic glossaries. Instead, you must do two things: Markup your glossary using glossseealso: <glossentry> <glossterm>gloss-1</glossterm> <glossdef><para>A description that references <glossterm>gloss-2</glossterm>.</para> <glossseealso>gloss-2</glossseealso> </glossdef> </glossentry> Make sure there is at least one glossterm reference to gloss-2 in your document. The easiest way to do that is probably within a remark in your automatic glossary: <glossary role="auto"> <remark>Make sure there's a reference to <glossterm>gloss-2</glossterm>.</remark> <glossentry> <glossterm>Irrelevant</glossterm> <glossdef> <para>If you can see this, the document was processed incorrectly. Use the <parameter>glossary.collection</parameter> parameter.</para> </glossdef> </glossentry> </glossary> glossary.as.blocks boolean glossary.as.blocks Present glossarys using blocks instead of lists? <xsl:param name="glossary.as.blocks" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, glossarys will be formatted as blocks. If you have long glossterms, proper list markup in the FO case may produce unattractive lists. By setting this parameter, you can force the stylesheets to produce block markup instead of proper lists. You can override this setting with a processing instruction as the child of glossary: dbfo glossary-presentation="blocks" or dbfo glossary-presentation="list" glosslist.as.blocks boolean glosslist.as.blocks Use blocks for glosslists? <xsl:param name="glosslist.as.blocks" select="0"></xsl:param> Description See glossary.as.blocks. glossentry.list.item.properties attribute set glossentry.list.item.properties To add properties to each glossentry in a list. <xsl:attribute-set name="glossentry.list.item.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0.8em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">1.2em</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description These properties are added to the fo:list-item containing a glossentry in a glossary when the glossary.as.blocks parameter is zero. Use this attribute-set to set spacing between entries, for example. glossterm.block.properties attribute set glossterm.block.properties To add properties to the block of a glossentry's glossterm. <xsl:attribute-set name="glossterm.block.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0.8em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">1.2em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="keep-with-next.within-column">always</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="keep-together.within-column">always</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description These properties are added to the block containing a glossary term in a glossary when the glossary.as.blocks parameter is non-zero. Use this attribute-set to set the space above and below, font properties, and any indent for the glossary term. glossdef.block.properties attribute set glossdef.block.properties To add properties to the block of a glossary definition. <xsl:attribute-set name="glossdef.block.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="margin-{$direction.align.start}">.25in</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description These properties are added to the block containing a glossary definition in a glossary when the glossary.as.blocks parameter is non-zero. Use this attribute-set to set the space above and below, any font properties, and any indent for the glossary definition. glossterm.list.properties attribute set glossterm.list.properties To add properties to the glossterm in a list. <xsl:attribute-set name="glossterm.list.properties"> </xsl:attribute-set> Description These properties are added to the block containing a glossary term in a glossary when the glossary.as.blocks parameter is zero. Use this attribute-set to set font properties, for example. glossdef.list.properties attribute set glossdef.list.properties To add properties to the glossary definition in a list. <xsl:attribute-set name="glossdef.list.properties"> </xsl:attribute-set> Description These properties are added to the block containing a glossary definition in a glossary when the glossary.as.blocks parameter is zero. Use this attribute-set to set font properties, for example. glossterm.width length glossterm.width Width of glossterm in list presentation mode <xsl:param name="glossterm.width">2in</xsl:param> Description This parameter specifies the width reserved for glossary terms when a list presentation is used. glossterm.separation length glossterm.separation Separation between glossary terms and descriptions in list mode <xsl:param name="glossterm.separation">0.25in</xsl:param> Description Specifies the miminum horizontal separation between glossary terms and descriptions when they are presented side-by-side using lists when the glossary.as.blocks is zero. glossentry.show.acronym list no yes primary glossentry.show.acronym Display glossentry acronyms? <xsl:param name="glossentry.show.acronym">no</xsl:param> Description A setting of yes means they should be displayed; no means they shouldn't. If primary is used, then they are shown as the primary text for the entry. This setting controls both acronym and abbrev elements in the glossentry. glossary.sort boolean glossary.sort Sort glossentry elements? <xsl:param name="glossary.sort" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then the glossentry elements within a glossary, glossdiv, or glosslist are sorted on the glossterm, using the current lang setting. If zero (the default), then glossentry elements are not sorted and are presented in document order. Miscellaneous formal.procedures boolean formal.procedures Selects formal or informal procedures <xsl:param name="formal.procedures" select="1"></xsl:param> Description Formal procedures are numbered and always have a title. formal.title.placement table formal.title.placement Specifies where formal object titles should occur <xsl:param name="formal.title.placement"> figure before example before equation before table before procedure before task before </xsl:param> Description Specifies where formal object titles should occur. For each formal object type (figure, example, equation, table, and procedure) you can specify either the keyword before or after. runinhead.default.title.end.punct string runinhead.default.title.end.punct Default punctuation character on a run-in-head <xsl:param name="runinhead.default.title.end.punct">.</xsl:param> Description If non-zero, For a formalpara, use the specified string as the separator between the title and following text. The period is the default value. runinhead.title.end.punct string runinhead.title.end.punct Characters that count as punctuation on a run-in-head <xsl:param name="runinhead.title.end.punct">.!?:</xsl:param> Description Specify which characters are to be counted as punctuation. These characters are checked for a match with the last character of the title. If no match is found, the runinhead.default.title.end.punct contents are inserted. This is to avoid duplicated punctuation in the output. show.comments boolean show.comments Display remark elements? <xsl:param name="show.comments" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, comments will be displayed, otherwise they are suppressed. Comments here refers to the remark element (which was called comment prior to DocBook 4.0), not XML comments (<-- like this -->) which are unavailable. punct.honorific string punct.honorific Punctuation after an honorific in a personal name. <xsl:param name="punct.honorific">.</xsl:param> Description This parameter specifies the punctuation that should be added after an honorific in a personal name. segmentedlist.as.table boolean segmentedlist.as.table Format segmented lists as tables? <xsl:param name="segmentedlist.as.table" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, segmentedlists will be formatted as tables. variablelist.as.blocks boolean variablelist.as.blocks Format variablelists lists as blocks? <xsl:param name="variablelist.as.blocks" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, variablelists will be formatted as blocks. If you have long terms, proper list markup in the FO case may produce unattractive lists. By setting this parameter, you can force the stylesheets to produce block markup instead of proper lists. You can override this setting with a processing instruction as the child of variablelist: dbfo list-presentation="blocks" or dbfo list-presentation="list". When using list-presentation="list", you can also control the amount of space used for the terms with the dbfo term-width=".25in" processing instruction, the termlength attribute on variablelist, or allow the stylesheets to attempt to calculate the amount of space to leave based on the number of letters in the longest term. <variablelist> <?dbfo list-presentation="list"?> <?dbfo term-width="1.5in"?> <?dbhtml list-presentation="table"?> <?dbhtml term-width="1.5in"?> <varlistentry> <term>list</term> <listitem> <para> Formatted as a list even if variablelist.as.blocks is set to 1. </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> blockquote.properties attribute set blockquote.properties To set the style for block quotations. <xsl:attribute-set name="blockquote.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="margin-{$direction.align.start}">0.5in</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="margin-{$direction.align.end}">0.5in</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.minimum">0.5em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.maximum">2em</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description The blockquote.properties attribute set specifies the formating properties of block quotations. ulink.show boolean ulink.show Display URLs after ulinks? <xsl:param name="ulink.show" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the URL of each ulink will appear after the text of the link. If the text of the link and the URL are identical, the URL is suppressed. See also ulink.footnotes. DocBook 5 does not have an ulink element. When processing DocBoook 5 documents, ulink.show applies to all inline elements that are marked up with xlink:href attributes that point to external resources. ulink.footnotes boolean ulink.footnotes Generate footnotes for ulinks? <xsl:param name="ulink.footnotes" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, and if ulink.show also is non-zero, the URL of each ulink will appear as a footnote. DocBook 5 does not have an ulink element. When processing DocBoook 5 documents, ulink.footnotes applies to all inline elements that are marked up with xlink:href attributes that point to external resources. ulink.hyphenate string ulink.hyphenate Allow URLs to be automatically hyphenated <xsl:param name="ulink.hyphenate"></xsl:param> Description If not empty, the specified character (or more generally, content) is added to URLs after every character included in the string in the ulink.hyphenate.chars parameter (default is /). If the character in this parameter is a Unicode soft hyphen (0x00AD) or Unicode zero-width space (0x200B), some FO processors will be able to reasonably hyphenate long URLs. As of 28 Jan 2002, discretionary hyphens are more widely and correctly supported than zero-width spaces for this purpose. ulink.hyphenate.chars string ulink.hyphenate.chars List of characters to allow ulink URLs to be automatically hyphenated on <xsl:param name="ulink.hyphenate.chars">/</xsl:param> Description If the ulink.hyphenate is not empty, then hyphenation of ulinks is turned on, and any character contained in this parameter is treated as an allowable hyphenation point. The default value is /, but the parameter could be customized to contain other URL characters, as for example: <xsl:param name="ulink.hyphenate.chars">:/@&?.#</xsl:param> shade.verbatim boolean shade.verbatim Should verbatim environments be shaded? <xsl:param name="shade.verbatim" select="0"></xsl:param> Description In the FO stylesheet, if this parameter is non-zero then the shade.verbatim.style properties will be applied to verbatim environments. In the HTML stylesheet, this parameter is now deprecated. Use CSS instead. shade.verbatim.style attribute set shade.verbatim.style Properties that specify the style of shaded verbatim listings <xsl:attribute-set name="shade.verbatim.style"> <xsl:attribute name="background-color">#E0E0E0</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Properties that specify the style of shaded verbatim listings. The parameters specified (the border and background color) are added to the styling of the xsl-fo output. A border might be specified as "thin black solid" for example. See xsl-fo hyphenate.verbatim boolean hyphenate.verbatim Should verbatim environments be hyphenated on space characters? <xsl:param name="hyphenate.verbatim" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If the lines of program listing are too long to fit into one line it is quite common to split them at space and indicite by hook arrow that code continues on the next line. You can turn on this behaviour for programlisting, screen and synopsis elements by using this parameter. Note that you must also enable line wrapping for verbatim environments and select appropriate hyphenation character (e.g. hook arrow). This can be done using monospace.verbatim.properties attribute set: <xsl:attribute-set name="monospace.verbatim.properties" use-attribute-sets="verbatim.properties monospace.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="wrap-option">wrap</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="hyphenation-character">►</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> For a list of arrows available in Unicode see http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U2190.pdf and http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U2900.pdf and make sure that selected character is available in the font you are using for verbatim environments. hyphenate.verbatim.characters string hyphenate.verbatim.characters List of characters after which a line break can occur in listings <xsl:param name="hyphenate.verbatim.characters"></xsl:param> Description If you enable hyphenate.verbatim line breaks are allowed only on space characters. If this is not enough for your document, you can specify list of additional characters after which line break is allowed in this parameter. use.svg boolean use.svg Allow SVG in the result tree? <xsl:param name="use.svg" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, SVG will be considered an acceptable image format. SVG is passed through to the result tree, so correct rendering of the resulting diagram depends on the formatter (FO processor or web browser) that is used to process the output from the stylesheet. use.role.as.xrefstyle boolean use.role.as.xrefstyle Use role attribute for xrefstyle on xref? <xsl:param name="use.role.as.xrefstyle" select="1"></xsl:param> Description In DocBook documents that conform to a schema older than V4.3, this parameter allows role to serve the purpose of specifying the cross reference style. If non-zero, the role attribute on xref will be used to select the cross reference style. In DocBook V4.3, the xrefstyle attribute was added for this purpose. If the xrefstyle attribute is present, role will be ignored, regardless of the setting of this parameter. Example The following small stylesheet shows how to configure the stylesheets to make use of the cross reference style: <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:import href="../xsl/html/docbook.xsl"/> <xsl:output method="html"/> <xsl:param name="local.l10n.xml" select="document('')"/> <l:i18n xmlns:l="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/xmlns/l10n/1.0"> <l:l10n xmlns:l="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/xmlns/l10n/1.0" language="en"> <l:context name="xref"> <l:template name="chapter" style="title" text="Chapter %n, %t"/> <l:template name="chapter" text="Chapter %n"/> </l:context> </l:l10n> </l:i18n> </xsl:stylesheet> With this stylesheet, the cross references in the following document: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.2//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd"> <book id="book"><title>Book</title> <preface> <title>Preface</title> <para>Normal: <xref linkend="ch1"/>.</para> <para>Title: <xref xrefstyle="title" linkend="ch1"/>.</para> </preface> <chapter id="ch1"> <title>First Chapter</title> <para>Irrelevant.</para> </chapter> </book> will appear as: Normal: Chapter 1. Title: Chapter 1, First Chapter. menuchoice.separator string menuchoice.separator Separator between items of a menuchoice other than guimenuitem and guisubmenu <xsl:param name="menuchoice.separator">+</xsl:param> Description Separator used to connect items of a menuchoice other than guimenuitem and guisubmenu. The latter elements are linked with menuchoice.menu.separator. menuchoice.menu.separator string menuchoice.menu.separator Separator between items of a menuchoice with guimenuitem or guisubmenu Description Separator used to connect items of a menuchoice with guimenuitem or guisubmenu. Other elements are linked with menuchoice.separator. The default value is →, which is the → (right arrow) character entity. The current FOP (0.20.5) requires setting the font-family explicitly. The default value also includes spaces around the arrow, which will allow a line to break. Replace the spaces with   (nonbreaking space) if you don't want those spaces to break. default.float.class string default.float.class Specifies the default float class <xsl:param name="default.float.class"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="contains($stylesheet.result.type,'html')">left</xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>before</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:param> Description Selects the direction in which a float should be placed. for xsl-fo this is before, for html it is left. For Western texts, the before direction is the top of the page. footnote.number.format list 11,2,3... AA,B,C... aa,b,c... ii,ii,iii... II,II,III... footnote.number.format Identifies the format used for footnote numbers <xsl:param name="footnote.number.format">1</xsl:param> Description The footnote.number.format specifies the format to use for footnote numeration (1, i, I, a, or A). table.footnote.number.format list 11,2,3... AA,B,C... aa,b,c... ii,ii,iii... II,II,III... table.footnote.number.format Identifies the format used for footnote numbers in tables <xsl:param name="table.footnote.number.format">a</xsl:param> Description The table.footnote.number.format specifies the format to use for footnote numeration (1, i, I, a, or A) in tables. footnote.number.symbols footnote.number.symbols Special characters to use as footnote markers <xsl:param name="footnote.number.symbols"></xsl:param> Description If footnote.number.symbols is not the empty string, footnotes will use the characters it contains as footnote symbols. For example, *†‡◊✠ will identify footnotes with *, †, ‡, ◊, and ✠. If there are more footnotes than symbols, the stylesheets will fall back to numbered footnotes using footnote.number.format. The use of symbols for footnotes depends on the ability of your processor (or browser) to render the symbols you select. Not all systems are capable of displaying the full range of Unicode characters. If the quoted characters in the preceding paragraph are not displayed properly, that's a good indicator that you may have trouble using those symbols for footnotes. table.footnote.number.symbols string table.footnote.number.symbols Special characters to use a footnote markers in tables <xsl:param name="table.footnote.number.symbols"></xsl:param> Description If table.footnote.number.symbols is not the empty string, table footnotes will use the characters it contains as footnote symbols. For example, *†‡◊✠ will identify footnotes with *, †, ‡, ◊, and ✠. If there are more footnotes than symbols, the stylesheets will fall back to numbered footnotes using table.footnote.number.format. The use of symbols for footnotes depends on the ability of your processor (or browser) to render the symbols you select. Not all systems are capable of displaying the full range of Unicode characters. If the quoted characters in the preceding paragraph are not displayed properly, that's a good indicator that you may have trouble using those symbols for footnotes. footnote.properties attribute set footnote.properties Properties applied to each footnote body <xsl:attribute-set name="footnote.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-family"><xsl:value-of select="$body.fontset"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-size"><xsl:value-of select="$footnote.font.size"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-weight">normal</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-style">normal</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="text-align"><xsl:value-of select="$alignment"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="start-indent">0pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="text-indent">0pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="hyphenate"><xsl:value-of select="$hyphenate"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="wrap-option">wrap</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="linefeed-treatment">treat-as-space</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This attribute set is applied to the footnote-block for each footnote. It can be used to set the font-size, font-family, and other inheritable properties that will be applied to all footnotes. table.footnote.properties attribute set table.footnote.properties Properties applied to each table footnote body <xsl:attribute-set name="table.footnote.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-family"><xsl:value-of select="$body.fontset"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-size"><xsl:value-of select="$footnote.font.size"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-weight">normal</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-style">normal</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before">2pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="text-align"><xsl:value-of select="$alignment"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This attribute set is applied to the footnote-block for each table footnote. It can be used to set the font-size, font-family, and other inheritable properties that will be applied to all table footnotes. footnote.mark.properties attribute set footnote.mark.properties Properties applied to each footnote mark <xsl:attribute-set name="footnote.mark.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-family"><xsl:value-of select="$body.fontset"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-size">75%</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-weight">normal</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-style">normal</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This attribute set is applied to the footnote mark used for each footnote. It should contain only inline properties. The property to make the mark a superscript is contained in the footnote template itself, because the current version of FOP reports an error if baseline-shift is used. footnote.sep.leader.properties attribute set footnote.sep.leader.properties Properties associated with footnote separators <xsl:attribute-set name="footnote.sep.leader.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="color">black</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="leader-pattern">rule</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="leader-length">1in</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description The styling for the rule line that separates the footnotes from the body text. These are properties applied to the fo:leader used as the separator. If you want to do more than just set properties on the leader element, then you can customize the template named footnote.separator in fo/pagesetup.xsl. xref.with.number.and.title boolean xref.with.number.and.title Use number and title in cross references <xsl:param name="xref.with.number.and.title" select="1"></xsl:param> Description A cross reference may include the number (for example, the number of an example or figure) and the title which is a required child of some targets. This parameter inserts both the relevant number as well as the title into the link. superscript.properties attribute set superscript.properties Properties associated with superscripts <xsl:attribute-set name="superscript.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-size">75%</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Specifies styling properties for superscripts. subscript.properties attribute set subscript.properties Properties associated with subscripts <xsl:attribute-set name="subscript.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-size">75%</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Specifies styling properties for subscripts. pgwide.properties attribute set pgwide.properties Properties to make a figure or table page wide. <xsl:attribute-set name="pgwide.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="start-indent">0pt</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This attribute set is used to set the properties that make a figure or table "page wide" in fo output. It comes into effect when an attribute pgwide="1" is used. By default, it sets start-indent to 0pt. In a stylesheet that sets the parameter body.start.indent to a non-zero value in order to indent body text, this attribute set can be used to outdent pgwide figures to the start margin. If a document uses a multi-column page layout, then this attribute set could try setting span to a value of all. However, this may not work with some processors because a span property must be on an fo:block that is a direct child of fo:flow. It may work in some processors anyway. highlight.source boolean highlight.source Should the content of programlisting be syntactically highlighted? <xsl:param name="highlight.source" select="0"></xsl:param> Description When this parameter is non-zero, the stylesheets will try to do syntax highlighting of the content of programlisting elements. You specify the language for each programlisting by using the language attribute. The highlight.default.language parameter can be used to specify the language for programlistings without a language attribute. Syntax highlighting also works for screen and synopsis elements. The actual highlighting work is done by the XSLTHL extension module. This is an external Java library that has to be downloaded separately (see below). In order to use this extension, you must add xslthl-2.x.x.jar to your Java classpath. The latest version is available from the XSLT syntax highlighting project at SourceForge. use a customization layer in which you import one of the following stylesheet modules: html/highlight.xsl xhtml/highlight.xsl xhtml-1_1/highlight.xsl fo/highlight.xsl let either the xslthl.config Java system property or the highlight.xslthl.config parameter point to the configuration file for syntax highlighting (using URL syntax). DocBook XSL comes with a ready-to-use configuration file, highlighting/xslthl-config.xml. The extension works with Saxon 6.5.x and Xalan-J. (Saxon 8.5 or later is also supported, but since it is an XSLT 2.0 processor it is not guaranteed to work with DocBook XSL in all circumstances.) The following is an example of a Saxon 6 command adapted for syntax highlighting, to be used on Windows: java -cp c:/Java/saxon.jar;c:/Java/xslthl-2.0.1.jar -Dxslthl.config=file:///c:/docbook-xsl/highlighting/xslthl-config.xml com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet -o test.html test.xml myhtml.xsl highlight.xslthl.config uri highlight.xslthl.config Location of XSLTHL configuration file <xsl:param name="highlight.xslthl.config"></xsl:param> Description This location has precedence over the corresponding Java property. Please note that usually you have to specify location as URL not just as a simple path on the local filesystem. E.g. file:///home/user/xslthl/my-xslthl-config.xml. highlight.default.language string highlight.default.language Default language of programlisting <xsl:param name="highlight.default.language"></xsl:param> Description This language is used when there is no language attribute on programlisting. email.delimiters.enabled boolean email.delimiters.enabled Generate delimiters around email addresses? <xsl:param name="email.delimiters.enabled" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, delimiters For delimiters, the stylesheets are currently hard-coded to output angle brackets. are generated around e-mail addresses (the output of the email element). email.mailto.enabled boolean email.mailto.enabled Generate mailto: links for email addresses? <xsl:param name="email.mailto.enabled" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero the generated output for the email element will be a clickable mailto: link that brings up the default mail client on the system. section.container.element list block wrapper section.container.element Select XSL-FO element name to contain sections <xsl:param name="section.container.element">block</xsl:param> Description Selects the element name for outer container of each section. The choices are block (default) or wrapper. The fo: namespace prefix is added by the stylesheet to form the full element name. This element receives the section id attribute and the appropriate section level attribute-set. Changing this parameter to wrapper is only necessary when producing multi-column output that contains page-wide spans. Using fo:wrapper avoids the nesting of fo:block elements that prevents spans from working (the standard says a span must be on a block that is a direct child of fo:flow). If set to wrapper, the section attribute-sets only support properties that are inheritable. That's because there is no block to apply them to. Properties such as font-family are inheritable, but properties such as border are not. Only some XSL-FO processors need to use this parameter. The Antenna House processor, for example, will handle spans in nested blocks without changing the element name. The RenderX XEP product and FOP follow the XSL-FO standard and need to use wrapper. monospace.verbatim.font.width length monospace.verbatim.font.width Width of a single monospace font character <xsl:param name="monospace.verbatim.font.width">0.60em</xsl:param> Description Specifies with em units the width of a single character of the monospace font. The default value is 0.6em. This parameter is only used when a screen or programlisting element has a width attribute, which is expressed as a plain integer to indicate the maximum character count of each line. To convert this character count to an actual maximum width measurement, the width of the font characters must be provided. Different monospace fonts have different character width, so this parameter should be adjusted to fit the monospace font being used. exsl.node.set.available boolean exsl.node.set.available Is the test function-available('exsl:node-set') true? <xsl:param name="exsl.node.set.available"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when exsl:foo="" test="function-available('exsl:node-set') or contains(system-property('xsl:vendor'), 'Apache Software Foundation')">1</xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>0</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:param> Description If non-zero, then the exsl:node-set() function is available to be used in the stylesheet. If zero, then the function is not available. This param automatically detects the presence of the function and does not normally need to be set manually. This param was created to handle a long-standing bug in the Xalan processor that fails to detect the function even though it is available. bookmarks.collapse boolean bookmarks.collapse Specifies the initial state of bookmarks <xsl:param name="bookmarks.collapse" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the bookmark tree is collapsed so that only the top-level bookmarks are displayed initially. Otherwise, the whole tree of bookmarks is displayed. This parameter currently works with FOP 0.93 or later. Graphics graphic.default.extension string graphic.default.extension Default extension for graphic filenames <xsl:param name="graphic.default.extension"></xsl:param> Description If a graphic or mediaobject includes a reference to a filename that does not include an extension, and the format attribute is unspecified, the default extension will be used. default.image.width length default.image.width The default width of images <xsl:param name="default.image.width"></xsl:param> Description If specified, this value will be used for the width attribute on images that do not specify any viewport dimensions. preferred.mediaobject.role string preferred.mediaobject.role Select which mediaobject to use based on this value of an object's role attribute. <xsl:param name="preferred.mediaobject.role"></xsl:param> Description A mediaobject may contain several objects such as imageobjects. If the parameter use.role.for.mediaobject is non-zero, then the role attribute on imageobjects and other objects within a mediaobject container will be used to select which object will be used. If one of the objects has a role value that matches the preferred.mediaobject.role parameter, then it has first priority for selection. If more than one has such a role value, the first one is used. See the use.role.for.mediaobject parameter for the sequence of selection. use.role.for.mediaobject boolean use.role.for.mediaobject Use role attribute value for selecting which of several objects within a mediaobject to use. <xsl:param name="use.role.for.mediaobject" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the role attribute on imageobjects or other objects within a mediaobject container will be used to select which object will be used. The order of selection when then parameter is non-zero is: If the stylesheet parameter preferred.mediaobject.role has a value, then the object whose role equals that value is selected. Else if an object's role attribute has a value of html for HTML processing or fo for FO output, then the first of such objects is selected. Else the first suitable object is selected. If the value of use.role.for.mediaobject is zero, then role attributes are not considered and the first suitable object with or without a role value is used. ignore.image.scaling boolean ignore.image.scaling Tell the stylesheets to ignore the author's image scaling attributes <xsl:param name="ignore.image.scaling" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the scaling attributes on graphics and media objects are ignored. img.src.path string img.src.path Path to HTML/FO image files <xsl:param name="img.src.path"></xsl:param> Description Add a path prefix to the value of the fileref attribute of graphic, inlinegraphic, and imagedata elements. The resulting compound path is used in the output as the value of the src attribute of img (HTML) or external-graphic (FO). The path given by img.src.path could be relative to the directory where the HTML/FO files are created, or it could be an absolute URI. The default value is empty. Be sure to include a trailing slash if needed. This prefix is not applied to any filerefs that start with "/" or contain "//:". keep.relative.image.uris boolean keep.relative.image.uris Should image URIs be resolved against xml:base? <xsl:param name="keep.relative.image.uris" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, relative URIs (in, for example fileref attributes) will be used in the generated output. Otherwise, the URIs will be made absolute with respect to the base URI. Note that the stylesheets calculate (and use) the absolute form for some purposes, this only applies to the resulting output. Pagination and General Styles

Understanding XSL FO Margins To make sense of the parameters in this section, it's useful to consider .

Page Model Figure showing page margins This figure shows the physical page with the various FO page regions identified. First, let's consider the regions on the page. The white region is the physical page. Its dimensions are determined by the page.height and page.width parameters. The yellow region is the region-body. The size and placement of the region body is constrained by the dimensions labelled in the figure. The pink region at the top of the page is the region-before. The darker area inside the region-before is the header text. In XSL, the default display alignment for a region is before, but the DocBook stylesheets still explicitly make it before. That's why the darker area is at the top. The pink region at the bottom of the page is the region-after. The darker area is the footer text. In XSL, the default display alignment for a region is before, but the DocBook stylesheets explicitly make it after. That's why the darker area is at the bottom. The dimensions in the figure are: The page-master margin-top. The region-before extent. The region-body margin-top. The region-after extent. The page-master margin-bottom. The region-body margin-bottom. The sum of the page-master margin-left and the region-body margin-left. In DocBook, the region-body margin-left is zero by default, so this is simply the page-master margin-left. The sum of the page-master margin-right and the region-body margin-right. In DocBook, the region-body margin-right is zero by default, so this is simply the page-master margin-right.

For left-to-right text direction, it indents the left side. For right-to-left text direction, it indents the right side. It is used in place of the title.margin.left for all XSL-FO processors except FOP 0.25. It enables support for side floats to appear in the indented margin area. This start-indent property is added to the fo:flow for certain page sequences. Which page-sequences it is applied to is determined by the template named set.flow.properties. By default, that template adds it to the flow for page-sequences using the body master-reference, as well as appendixes and prefaces. If this parameter is used, section titles should have a start-indent value of 0pt if they are to be outdented relative to the body text. If you are using FOP, then set this parameter to a zero width value and set the title.margin.left parameter to the negative value of the desired indent. See also body.end.indent and title.margin.left. body.end.indent length body.end.indent The end-indent for the body text <xsl:param name="body.end.indent">0pt</xsl:param> Description This end-indent property is added to the fo:flow for certain page sequences.

Unqualified dimensions are not allowed in XSL Formatting Objects. normal.para.spacing attribute set normal.para.spacing What space do you want between normal paragraphs <xsl:attribute-set name="normal.para.spacing"> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0.8em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">1.2em</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Specify the spacing required between normal paragraphs body.font.master number body.font.master Specifies the default point size for body text <xsl:param name="body.font.master">10</xsl:param> Description The body font size is specified in two parameters (body.font.master and body.font.size) so that math can be performed on the font size by XSLT. body.font.size length body.font.size Specifies the default font size for body text <xsl:param name="body.font.size"> <xsl:value-of select="$body.font.master"></xsl:value-of><xsl:text>pt</xsl:text> </xsl:param> Description The body font size is specified in two parameters (body.font.master and body.font.size) so that math can be performed on the font size by XSLT. footnote.font.size length footnote.font.size The font size for footnotes <xsl:param name="footnote.font.size"> <xsl:value-of select="$body.font.master * 0.8"></xsl:value-of><xsl:text>pt</xsl:text> </xsl:param> Description The footnote font size is used for...footnotes! title.margin.left length title.margin.left Adjust the left margin for titles <xsl:param name="title.margin.left"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$fop.extensions != 0">-4pc</xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$passivetex.extensions != 0">0pt</xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>0pt</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:param> Description This parameter provides the means of adjusting the left margin for titles when the XSL-FO processor being used is an old version of FOP (0.25 and earlier). It is only useful when the fop.extensions is nonzero. The left margin of the body region is calculated to include this space, and titles are outdented to the left outside the body region by this amount, effectively leaving titles at the intended left margin and the body text indented. Currently this method is only used for old FOP because it cannot properly use the body.start.indent parameter. The default value when the fop.extensions parameter is nonzero is -4pc, which means the body text is indented 4 picas relative to the titles. The default value when the fop.extensions parameter equals zero is 0pt, and the body indent should instead be specified using the body.start.indent parameter. If you set the value to zero, be sure to still include a unit indicator such as 0pt, or the FO processor will report errors. draft.mode list no yes maybe draft.mode Select draft mode <xsl:param name="draft.mode">no</xsl:param> Description Selects draft mode. If draft.mode is yes, the entire document will be treated as a draft. If it is no, the entire document will be treated as a final copy. If it is maybe, individual sections will be treated as draft or final independently, depending on how their status attribute is set. draft.watermark.image uri draft.watermark.image The URI of the image to be used for draft watermarks <xsl:param name="draft.watermark.image">images/draft.png</xsl:param> Description The image to be used for draft watermarks. headers.on.blank.pages boolean headers.on.blank.pages Put headers on blank pages? <xsl:param name="headers.on.blank.pages" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, headers will be placed on blank pages. footers.on.blank.pages boolean footers.on.blank.pages Put footers on blank pages? <xsl:param name="footers.on.blank.pages" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, footers will be placed on blank pages. header.column.widths string header.column.widths Specify relative widths of header areas Description Page headers in print output use a three column table to position text at the left, center, and right side of the header on the page. This parameter lets you specify the relative sizes of the three columns. The default value is "1 1 1". The parameter value must be three numbers, separated by white space. The first number represents the relative width of the inside header for double-sided output. The second number is the relative width of the center header. The third number is the relative width of the outside header for double-sided output. For single-sided output, the first number is the relative width of left header for left-to-right text direction, or the right header for right-to-left text direction. The third number is the relative width of right header for left-to-right text direction, or the left header for right-to-left text direction. The numbers are used to specify the column widths for the table that makes up the header area. In the FO output, this looks like: <fo:table-column column-number="1" column-width="proportional-column-width(1)"/> The proportional-column-width() function computes a column width by dividing its argument by the total of the arguments for all the columns, and then multiplying the result by the width of the whole table (assuming all the column specs use the function). Its argument can be any positive integer or floating point number. Zero is an acceptable value, although some FO processors may warn about it, in which case using a very small number might be more satisfactory. For example, the value "1 2 1" means the center header should have twice the width of the other areas. A value of "0 0 1" means the entire header area is reserved for the right (or outside) header text. Note that to keep the center area centered on the page, the left and right values must be the same. A specification like "1 2 3" means the center area is no longer centered on the page since the right area is three times the width of the left area. footer.column.widths string footer.column.widths Specify relative widths of footer areas Description Page footers in print output use a three column table to position text at the left, center, and right side of the footer on the page. This parameter lets you specify the relative sizes of the three columns. The default value is "1 1 1". The parameter value must be three numbers, separated by white space. The first number represents the relative width of the inside footer for double-sided output. The second number is the relative width of the center footer. The third number is the relative width of the outside footer for double-sided output. For single-sided output, the first number is the relative width of left footer for left-to-right text direction, or the right footer for right-to-left text direction. The third number is the relative width of right footer for left-to-right text direction, or the left footer for right-to-left text direction. The numbers are used to specify the column widths for the table that makes up the footer area. In the FO output, this looks like: <fo:table-column column-number="1" column-width="proportional-column-width(1)"/> The proportional-column-width() function computes a column width by dividing its argument by the total of the arguments for all the columns, and then multiplying the result by the width of the whole table (assuming all the column specs use the function). Its argument can be any positive integer or floating point number. Zero is an acceptable value, although some FO processors may warn about it, in which case using a very small number might be more satisfactory. For example, the value "1 2 1" means the center footer should have twice the width of the other areas. A value of "0 0 1" means the entire footer area is reserved for the right (or outside) footer text. Note that to keep the center area centered on the page, the left and right values must be the same. A specification like "1 2 3" means the center area is no longer centered on the page since the right area is three times the width of the left area. header.table.height length header.table.height Specify the minimum height of the table containing the running page headers Description Page headers in print output use a three column table to position text at the left, center, and right side of the header on the page. This parameter lets you specify the minimum height of the single row in the table. Since this specifies only the minimum height, the table should automatically grow to fit taller content. The default value is "14pt". footer.table.height length footer.table.height Specify the minimum height of the table containing the running page footers Description Page footers in print output use a three column table to position text at the left, center, and right side of the footer on the page. This parameter lets you specify the minimum height of the single row in the table. Since this specifies only the minimum height, the table should automatically grow to fit taller content. The default value is "14pt". header.content.properties attribute set header.content.properties Properties of page header content <xsl:attribute-set name="header.content.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-family"> <xsl:value-of select="$body.fontset"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="margin-left"> <xsl:value-of select="$title.margin.left"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Properties of page header content. footer.content.properties attribute set footer.content.properties Properties of page footer content <xsl:attribute-set name="footer.content.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-family"> <xsl:value-of select="$body.fontset"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="margin-left"> <xsl:value-of select="$title.margin.left"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Properties of page footer content. marker.section.level integer marker.section.level Control depth of sections shown in running headers or footers <xsl:param name="marker.section.level">2</xsl:param> Description The marker.section.level parameter controls the depth of section levels that may be displayed in running headers and footers. For example, if the value is 2 (the default), then titles from sect1 and sect2 or equivalent section elements are candidates for use in running headers and footers. Each candidate title is marked in the FO output with a <fo:marker marker-class-name="section.head.marker"> element. In order for such titles to appear in headers or footers, the header.content or footer.content template must be customized to retrieve the marker using an output element such as: <fo:retrieve-marker retrieve-class-name="section.head.marker" retrieve-position="first-including-carryover" retrieve-boundary="page-sequence"/> Font Families body.font.family list open serif sans-serif monospace body.font.family The default font family for body text <xsl:param name="body.font.family">serif</xsl:param> Description The body font family is the default font used for text in the page body. dingbat.font.family list open serif sans-serif monospace dingbat.font.family The font family for copyright, quotes, and other symbols <xsl:param name="dingbat.font.family">serif</xsl:param> Description The dingbat font family is used for dingbats. If it is defined as the empty string, no font change is effected around dingbats. monospace.font.family string monospace.font.family The default font family for monospace environments <xsl:param name="monospace.font.family">monospace</xsl:param> Description The monospace font family is used for verbatim environments (program listings, screens, etc.). sans.font.family string sans.font.family The default sans-serif font family <xsl:param name="sans.font.family">sans-serif</xsl:param> Description The default sans-serif font family. At the present, this isn't actually used by the stylesheets. title.font.family list open serif sans-serif monospace title.font.family The default font family for titles <xsl:param name="title.font.family">sans-serif</xsl:param> Description The title font family is used for titles (chapter, section, figure, etc.) symbol.font.family list open serif sans-serif monospace symbol.font.family The font families to be searched for symbols outside of the body font <xsl:param name="symbol.font.family">Symbol,ZapfDingbats</xsl:param> Description A typical body or title font does not contain all the character glyphs that DocBook supports. This parameter specifies additional fonts that should be searched for special characters not in the normal font.

This property set used to set the font-size as well, but that doesn't work very well when different fonts are used (as they are in titles and paragraphs, for example). If you want to set the font-size in a customization layer, it's probably going to be more appropriate to set font-size-adjust, if your formatter supports it. verbatim.properties attribute set verbatim.properties Properties associated with verbatim text <xsl:attribute-set name="verbatim.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0.8em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">1.2em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.minimum">0.8em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.optimum">1em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after.maximum">1.2em</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="hyphenate">false</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="wrap-option">no-wrap</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="white-space-collapse">false</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="white-space-treatment">preserve</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="linefeed-treatment">preserve</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="text-align">start</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This attribute set is used on all verbatim environments. monospace.verbatim.properties attribute set monospace.verbatim.properties What font and size do you want for monospaced content? <xsl:attribute-set name="monospace.verbatim.properties" use-attribute-sets="verbatim.properties monospace.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="text-align">start</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="wrap-option">no-wrap</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description Specify the font name and size you want for monospaced output sidebar.properties attribute set sidebar.properties Attribute set for sidebar properties <xsl:attribute-set name="sidebar.properties" use-attribute-sets="formal.object.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="border-style">solid</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="border-width">1pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="border-color">black</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="background-color">#DDDDDD</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="padding-start">12pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="padding-end">12pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="padding-top">6pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="padding-bottom">6pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="margin-{$direction.align.start}">0pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="margin-{$direction.align.end}">0pt</xsl:attribute>  </xsl:attribute-set> Description The styling for sidebars. sidebar.float.type list none before left start right end inside outside sidebar.float.type Select type of float for sidebar elements Description Selects the type of float for sidebar elements. If sidebar.float.type is none, then no float is used. If sidebar.float.type is before, then the float appears at the top of the page. On some processors, that may be the next page rather than the current page. If sidebar.float.type is left, then a left side float is used. If sidebar.float.type is start, then when the text direction is left-to-right a left side float is used. When the text direction is right-to-left, a right side float is used. If sidebar.float.type is right, then a right side float is used. If sidebar.float.type is end, then when the text direction is left-to-right a right side float is used. When the text direction is right-to-left, a left side float is used. If your XSL-FO processor supports floats positioned on the inside or outside of double-sided pages, then you have those two options for side floats as well. margin.note.properties attribute set margin.note.properties Attribute set for margin.note properties <xsl:attribute-set name="margin.note.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-size">90%</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="text-align">start</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description The styling for margin notes. By default, margin notes are not implemented for any element. A stylesheet customization is needed to make use of this attribute-set. You can use a template named floater to create the customization. That template can create side floats by specifying the content and characteristics as template parameters. For example: <xsl:template match="para[@role='marginnote']"> <xsl:call-template name="floater"> <xsl:with-param name="position"> <xsl:value-of select="$margin.note.float.type"/> </xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="width"> <xsl:value-of select="$margin.note.width"/> </xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="content"> <xsl:apply-imports/> </xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:template> margin.note.title.properties attribute set margin.note.title.properties Attribute set for margin note titles <xsl:attribute-set name="margin.note.title.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-weight">bold</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="hyphenate">false</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="text-align">start</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="keep-with-next.within-column">always</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description The styling for margin note titles. margin.note.float.type list none before left start right end inside outside margin.note.float.type Select type of float for margin note customizations <xsl:param name="margin.note.float.type">none</xsl:param> Description Selects the type of float for margin notes. DocBook does not define a margin note element, so this feature must be implemented as a customization of the stylesheet. See margin.note.properties for an example. If margin.note.float.type is none, then no float is used. If margin.note.float.type is before, then the float appears at the top of the page. On some processors, that may be the next page rather than the current page. If margin.note.float.type is left or start, then a left side float is used. If margin.note.float.type is right or end, then a right side float is used. If your XSL-FO processor supports floats positioned on the inside or outside of double-sided pages, then you have those two options for side floats as well. margin.note.width length margin.note.width Set the default width for margin notes <xsl:param name="margin.note.width">1in</xsl:param> Description Sets the default width for margin notes when used as a side float. The width determines the degree to which the margin note block intrudes into the text area. If margin.note.float.type is before or none, then this parameter is ignored. component.title.properties attribute set component.title.properties Properties for component titles <xsl:attribute-set name="component.title.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="keep-with-next.within-column">always</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum"><xsl:value-of select="concat($body.font.master, 'pt')"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum"><xsl:value-of select="concat($body.font.master, 'pt * 0.8')"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum"><xsl:value-of select="concat($body.font.master, 'pt * 1.2')"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="hyphenate">false</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="text-align"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="((parent::article | parent::articleinfo | parent::info/parent::article) and not(ancestor::book) and not(self::bibliography)) or (parent::slides | parent::slidesinfo)">center</xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>start</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="start-indent"><xsl:value-of select="$title.margin.left"></xsl:value-of></xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description The properties common to all component titles. component.titlepage.properties attribute set component.titlepage.properties Properties for component titlepages <xsl:attribute-set name="component.titlepage.properties"> </xsl:attribute-set> Description The properties that are applied to the outer block containing all the component title page information.

You can specify multiple profiles by separating them by semicolon. You can change separator character by profile.separator parameter. This parameter has effect only when you are using profiling stylesheets (profile-docbook.xsl, profile-chunk.xsl, …) instead of normal ones (docbook.xsl, chunk.xsl, …). profile.role string profile.role Target profile for role attribute <xsl:param name="profile.role"></xsl:param> Description The value of this parameter specifies profiles which should be included in the output. You can specify multiple profiles by separating them by semicolon. You can change separator character by profile.separator parameter. This parameter has effect only when you are using profiling stylesheets (profile-docbook.xsl, profile-chunk.xsl, …) instead of normal ones (docbook.xsl, chunk.xsl, …). Note that role is often used for other purposes than profiling. For example it is commonly used to get emphasize in bold font: <emphasis role="bold">very important</emphasis> If you are using role for these purposes do not forget to add values like bold to value of this parameter. If you forgot you will get document with small pieces missing which are very hard to track. For this reason it is not recommended to use role attribute for profiling. You should rather use profiling specific attributes like userlevel, os, arch, condition, etc. profile.security string profile.security Target profile for security attribute <xsl:param name="profile.security"></xsl:param> Description The value of this parameter specifies profiles which should be included in the output. You can specify multiple profiles by separating them by semicolon. You can change separator character by profile.separator parameter. This parameter has effect only when you are using profiling stylesheets (profile-docbook.xsl, profile-chunk.xsl, …) instead of normal ones (docbook.xsl, chunk.xsl, …). profile.status string profile.status Target profile for status attribute <xsl:param name="profile.status"></xsl:param> Description The value of this parameter specifies profiles which should be included in the output.

The value of this parameter specifies profiles which should be included in the output. You can specify multiple profiles by separating them by semicolon. You can change separator character by profile.separator parameter. This parameter has effect only when you are using profiling stylesheets (profile-docbook.xsl, profile-chunk.xsl, …) instead of normal ones (docbook.xsl, chunk.xsl, …). profile.separator string profile.separator Separator character for compound profile values <xsl:param name="profile.separator">;</xsl:param> Description Separator character used for compound profile values. See profile.arch Localization l10n.gentext.language string l10n.gentext.language Sets the gentext language <xsl:param name="l10n.gentext.language"></xsl:param> Description If this parameter is set to any value other than the empty string, its value will be used as the value for the language when generating text. Setting l10n.gentext.language overrides any settings within the document being formatted. It's much more likely that you might want to set the l10n.gentext.default.language parameter. l10n.gentext.default.language string l10n.gentext.default.language Sets the default language for generated text <xsl:param name="l10n.gentext.default.language">en</xsl:param> Description The value of the l10n.gentext.default.language parameter is used as the language for generated text if no setting is provided in the source document. l10n.gentext.use.xref.language boolean l10n.gentext.use.xref.language Use the language of target when generating cross-reference text? <xsl:param name="l10n.gentext.use.xref.language" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, the language of the target will be used when generating cross reference text. Usually, the current language is used when generating text (that is, the language of the element that contains the cross-reference element). But setting this parameter allows the language of the element pointed to to control the generated text. Consider the following example: <para lang="en">See also <xref linkend="chap3"/>.</para> Suppose that Chapter 3 happens to be written in German. If l10n.gentext.use.xref.language is non-zero, the resulting text will be something like this:

[RFC1766] defines and explains the language codes that must be used in HTML documents. Briefly, language codes consist of a primary code and a possibly empty series of subcodes: language-code = primary-code ( "-" subcode )* And in RFC 1766, Tags for the Identification of Languages, the EBNF for "language tag" is given as: Language-Tag = Primary-tag *( "-" Subtag ) Primary-tag = 1*8ALPHA Subtag = 1*8ALPHA

Since the odds are not great for finding a set of words, for every output line, which fit nicely on a line without inserting excessive amounts of space between words, 'gtroff' hyphenates words so that it can justify lines without inserting too much space between words.

So, if you set a non-zero value for the man.justify parameter (to enable justification), then you should probably also set a non-zero value for man.hyphenate (to enable hyphenation). man.hyphenate.urls boolean man.hyphenate.urls Hyphenate URLs? <xsl:param name="man.hyphenate.urls">0</xsl:param> Description If zero (the default), hyphenation is suppressed for output of the ulink url attribute. If hyphenation is already turned off globally (that is, if man.hyphenate is zero, setting man.hyphenate.urls is not necessary. If man.hyphenate.urls is non-zero, URLs will not be treated specially and are subject to hyphenation just like other words. If you are thinking about setting a non-zero value for man.hyphenate.urls in order to make long URLs break across lines, you'd probably be better off experimenting with setting the man.break.after.slash parameter first. That will cause long URLs to be broken after slashes. man.hyphenate.filenames boolean man.hyphenate.filenames Hyphenate filenames? <xsl:param name="man.hyphenate.filenames">0</xsl:param> Description If zero (the default), hyphenation is suppressed for filename output. If hyphenation is already turned off globally (that is, if man.hyphenate is zero, setting man.hyphenate.filenames is not necessary. If man.hyphenate.filenames is non-zero, filenames will not be treated specially and are subject to hyphenation just like other words. If you are thinking about setting a non-zero value for man.hyphenate.filenames in order to make long filenames/pathnames break across lines, you'd probably be better off experimenting with setting the man.break.after.slash parameter first. That will cause long pathnames to be broken after slashes. man.hyphenate.computer.inlines boolean man.hyphenate.computer.inlines Hyphenate computer inlines? <xsl:param name="man.hyphenate.computer.inlines">0</xsl:param> Description If zero (the default), hyphenation is suppressed for computer inlines such as environment variables, constants, etc. This parameter current affects output of the following elements: classname constant envar errorcode option replaceable userinput type varname If hyphenation is already turned off globally (that is, if man.hyphenate is zero, setting the man.hyphenate.computer.inlines is not necessary. If man.hyphenate.computer.inlines is non-zero, computer inlines will not be treated specially and will be hyphenated like other words when needed. man.justify boolean man.justify Justify text to both right and left margins? <xsl:param name="man.justify">0</xsl:param> Description If non-zero, text is justified to both the right and left margins (or, in roff terminology, "adjusted and filled" to both the right and left margins). If zero (the default), text is adjusted to the left margin only -- producing what is traditionally called "ragged-right" text. The default value for this parameter is zero because justified text looks good only when it is also hyphenated. Without hyphenation, excessive amounts of space often end up getting between words, in order to "pad" lines out to align on the right margin. The problem is that groff is not particularly smart about how it does hyphenation; it can end up hyphenating a lot of things that you don't want hyphenated. So, disabling both justification and hyphenation ensures that hyphens won't get inserted where you don't want to them, and you don't end up with lines containing excessive amounts of space between words. However, if do you decide to set a non-zero value for the man.justify parameter (to enable justification), then you should probably also set a non-zero value for man.hyphenate (to enable hyphenation). Yes, these default settings run counter to how most existing man pages are formatted. But there are some notable exceptions, such as the perl man pages. man.break.after.slash boolean man.break.after.slash Enable line-breaking after slashes? <xsl:param name="man.break.after.slash">0</xsl:param> Description If non-zero, line-breaking after slashes is enabled. This is mainly useful for causing long URLs or pathnames/filenames to be broken up or "wrapped" across lines (though it also has the side effect of sometimes causing relatively short URLs and pathnames to be broken up across lines too). If zero (the default), line-breaking after slashes is disabled. In that case, strings containing slashes (for example, URLs or filenames) are not broken across lines, even if they exceed the maximum column widith. If you set a non-zero value for this parameter, check your man-page output carefuly afterwards, in order to make sure that the setting has not introduced an excessive amount of breaking-up of URLs or pathnames. If your content contains mostly short URLs or pathnames, setting a non-zero value for man.break.after.slash will probably result in in a significant number of relatively short URLs and pathnames being broken across lines, which is probably not what you want. Indentation man.indent.width length man.indent.width Specifies width used for adjusted indents <xsl:param name="man.indent.width">4</xsl:param> Description The man.indent.width parameter specifies the width used for adjusted indents. The value of man.indent.width is used for indenting of lists, verbatims, headings, and elsewhere, depending on whether the values of certain man.indent.* boolean parameters are non-zero. The value of man.indent.width should include a valid roff measurement unit (for example, n or u). The default value of 4n specifies a 4-en width; when viewed on a console, that amounts to the width of four characters. For details about roff measurment units, see the Measurements node in the groff info page. man.indent.refsect boolean man.indent.refsect Adjust indentation of refsect* and refsection? <xsl:param name="man.indent.refsect" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If the value of man.indent.refsect is non-zero, the width of the left margin for refsect1, refsect2 and refsect3 contents and titles (and first-level, second-level, and third-level nested refsectioninstances) is adjusted by the value of the man.indent.width parameter. With man.indent.width set to its default value of 3n, the main results are that: contents of refsect1 are output with a left margin of three characters instead the roff default of seven or eight characters contents of refsect2 are displayed in console output with a left margin of six characters instead the of the roff default of seven characters the contents of refsect3 and nested refsection instances are adjusted accordingly. If instead the value of man.indent.refsect is zero, no margin adjustment is done for refsect* output. If your content is primarly comprised of refsect1 and refsect2 content (or the refsection equivalent) – with few or no refsect3 or lower nested sections , you may be able to “conserve” space in your output by setting man.indent.refsect to a non-zero value. Doing so will “squeeze” the left margin in such as way as to provide an additional four characters of “room” per line in refsect1 output. That extra room may be useful if, for example, you have many verbatim sections with long lines in them. man.indent.blurbs boolean man.indent.blurbs Adjust indentation of blurbs? <xsl:param name="man.indent.blurbs" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If the value of man.indent.blurbs is non-zero, the width of the left margin for authorblurb, personblurb, and contrib output is set to the value of the man.indent.width parameter (3n by default). If instead the value of man.indent.blurbs is zero, the built-in roff default width (7.2n) is used. man.indent.lists boolean man.indent.lists Adjust indentation of lists? <xsl:param name="man.indent.lists" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If the value of man.indent.lists is non-zero, the width of the left margin for list items in itemizedlist, orderedlist, variablelist output (and output of some other lists) is set to the value of the man.indent.width parameter (4n by default). If instead the value of man.indent.lists is zero, the built-in roff default width (7.2n) is used. man.indent.verbatims boolean man.indent.verbatims Adjust indentation of verbatims? <xsl:param name="man.indent.verbatims" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If the value of man.indent.verbatims is non-zero, the width of the left margin for output of verbatim environments (programlisting, screen, and so on) is set to the value of the man.indent.width parameter (3n by default). If instead the value of man.indent.verbatims is zero, the built-in roff default width (7.2n) is used. Fonts man.font.funcprototype string man.font.funcprototype Specifies font for funcprototype output <xsl:param name="man.font.funcprototype">BI</xsl:param> Description The man.font.funcprototype parameter specifies the font for funcprototype output. It should be a valid roff font name, such as BI or B. man.font.funcsynopsisinfo string man.font.funcsynopsisinfo Specifies font for funcsynopsisinfo output <xsl:param name="man.font.funcsynopsisinfo">B</xsl:param> Description The man.font.funcsynopsisinfo parameter specifies the font for funcsynopsisinfo output. It should be a valid roff font name, such as B or I. man.font.links string man.font.links Specifies font for links <xsl:param name="man.font.links">B</xsl:param> Description The man.font.links parameter specifies the font for output of links (ulink instances and any instances of any element with an xlink:href attribute). The value of man.font.links must be either B or I, or empty. If the value is empty, no font formatting is applied to links. If you set man.endnotes.are.numbered and/or man.endnotes.list.enabled to zero (disabled), then you should probably also set an empty value for man.font.links. But if man.endnotes.are.numbered is non-zero (enabled), you should probably keep man.font.links set to B or IThe main purpose of applying a font format to links in most output formats it to indicate that the formatted text is “clickable”; given that links rendered in man pages are not “real” hyperlinks that users can click on, it might seem like there is never a good reason to have font formatting for link contents in man output. In fact, if you suppress the display of inline link references (by setting man.endnotes.are.numbered to zero), there is no good reason to apply font formatting to links. However, if man.endnotes.are.numbered is non-zero, having font formatting for links (arguably) serves a purpose: It provides “context” information about exactly what part of the text is being “annotated” by the link. Depending on how you mark up your content, that context information may or may not have value.. Related Parameters man.endnotes.list.enabled, man.endnotes.are.numbered man.font.table.headings string man.font.table.headings Specifies font for table headings <xsl:param name="man.font.table.headings">B</xsl:param> Description The man.font.table.headings parameter specifies the font for table headings. It should be a valid roff font, such as B or I. man.font.table.title string man.font.table.title Specifies font for table headings <xsl:param name="man.font.table.title">B</xsl:param> Description The man.font.table.title parameter specifies the font for table titles. It should be a valid roff font, such as B or I. SYNOPSIS section man.funcsynopsis.style list ansi kr man.funcsynopsis.style What style of funcsynopsis should be generated? <xsl:param name="man.funcsynopsis.style">ansi</xsl:param> Description If man.funcsynopsis.style is ansi, ANSI-style function synopses are generated for a funcsynopsis, otherwise K&R-style function synopses are generated. AUTHORS and COPYRIGHT sections man.authors.section.enabled boolean man.authors.section.enabled Display auto-generated AUTHORS section? <xsl:param name="man.authors.section.enabled">1</xsl:param> Description If the value of man.authors.section.enabled is non-zero (the default), then an AUTHORS section is generated near the end of each man page. The output of the AUTHORS section is assembled from any author, editor, and othercredit metadata found in the contents of the child info or refentryinfo (if any) of the refentry itself, or from any author, editor, and othercredit metadata that may appear in info contents of any ancestors of the refentry. If the value of man.authors.section.enabled is zero, the the auto-generated AUTHORS section is suppressed. Set the value of man.authors.section.enabled to zero if you want to have a manually created AUTHORS section in your source, and you want it to appear in output instead of the auto-generated AUTHORS section. man.copyright.section.enabled boolean man.copyright.section.enabled Display auto-generated COPYRIGHT section? <xsl:param name="man.copyright.section.enabled">1</xsl:param> Description If the value of man.copyright.section.enabled is non-zero (the default), then a COPYRIGHT section is generated near the end of each man page. The output of the COPYRIGHT section is assembled from any copyright and legalnotice metadata found in the contents of the child info or refentryinfo (if any) of the refentry itself, or from any copyright and legalnotice metadata that may appear in info contents of any ancestors of the refentry. If the value of man.copyright.section.enabled is zero, the the auto-generated COPYRIGHT section is suppressed. Set the value of man.copyright.section.enabled to zero if you want to have a manually created COPYRIGHT section in your source, and you want it to appear in output instead of the auto-generated COPYRIGHT section. Endnotes and link handling man.endnotes.list.enabled boolean man.endnotes.list.enabled Display endnotes list at end of man page? <xsl:param name="man.endnotes.list.enabled">1</xsl:param> Description If the value of man.endnotes.list.enabled is non-zero (the default), then an endnotes list is added to the end of the output man page. If the value of man.endnotes.list.enabled is zero, the list is suppressed — unless link numbering is enabled (that is, if man.endnotes.are.numbered is non-zero), in which case, that setting overrides the man.endnotes.list.enabled setting, and the endnotes list is still displayed. The reason is that inline numbering of notesources associated with endnotes only makes sense if a (numbered) list of endnotes is also generated. Leaving man.endnotes.list.enabled at its default (non-zero) value ensures that no “out of line” information (such as the URLs for hyperlinks and images) gets lost in your man-page output. It just gets “rearranged”. So if you’re thinking about disabling endnotes listing by setting the value of man.endnotes.list.enabled to zero: Before you do so, first take some time to carefully consider the information needs and experiences of your users. The “out of line” information has value even if the presentation of it in text output is not as interactive as it may be in other output formats. As far as the specific case of URLs: Even though the URLs displayed in text output may not be “real” (clickable) hyperlinks, many X terminals have convenience features for recognizing URLs and can, for example, present users with an options to open a URL in a browser with the user clicks on the URL is a terminal window. And short of those, users with X terminals can always manually cut and paste the URLs into a web browser. Also, note that various “man to html” tools, such as the widely used man2html (VH-Man2html) application, automatically mark up URLs with a@href markup during conversion — resulting in “real” hyperlinks in HTML output from those tools. To “turn off” numbering of endnotes in the endnotes list, set man.endnotes.are.numbered to zero. The endnotes list will still be displayed; it will just be displayed without the numbersIt can still make sense to have the list of endnotes displayed even if you have endnotes numbering turned off. In that case, your endnotes list basically becomes a “list of references” without any association with specific text in your document. This is probably the best option if you find the inline endnotes numbering obtrusive. Your users will still have access to all the “out of line” such as URLs for hyperlinks. The default heading for the endnotes list is NOTES. To change that, set a non-empty value for the man.endnotes.list.heading parameter. In the case of notesources that are links: Along with the URL for each link, the endnotes list includes the contents of the link. The list thus includes only non-empty A “non-empty” link is one that looks like this: <ulink url="http://docbook.sf.net/snapshot/xsl/doc/manpages/">manpages</ulink> an “empty link” is on that looks like this: <ulink url="http://docbook.sf.net/snapshot/xsl/doc/manpages/"/> links. Empty links are never included, and never numbered. They are simply displayed inline, without any numbering. In addition, if there are multiple instances of links in a refentry that have the same URL, the URL is listed only once. The contents listed for that link in the endnotes list are the contents of the first link which has that URL. If you disable endnotes listing, you should probably also set man.links.are.underlined to zero (to disable link underlining). man.endnotes.list.heading string man.endnotes.list.heading Specifies an alternate name for endnotes list <xsl:param name="man.endnotes.list.heading"></xsl:param> Description If the value of the man.endnotes.are.numbered parameter and/or the man.endnotes.list.enabled parameter is non-zero (the defaults for both are non-zero), a numbered list of endnotes is generated near the end of each man page. The default heading for the list of endnotes is the equivalent of the English word NOTES in the current locale. To cause an alternate heading to be displayed, set a non-empty value for the man.endnotes.list.heading parameter — for example, REFERENCES. man.endnotes.are.numbered boolean man.endnotes.are.numbered Number endnotes? <xsl:param name="man.endnotes.are.numbered">1</xsl:param> Description If the value of man.endnotes.are.numbered is non-zero (the default), then for each non-empty A “non-empty” notesource is one that looks like this: <ulink url="http://docbook.sf.net/snapshot/xsl/doc/manpages/">manpages</ulink> an “empty” notesource is on that looks like this: <ulink url="http://docbook.sf.net/snapshot/xsl/doc/manpages/"/> “notesource”: a number (in square brackets) is displayed inline after the rendered inline contents (if any) of the notesource the contents of the notesource are included in a numbered list of endnotes that is generated at the end of each man page; the number for each endnote corresponds to the inline number for the notesource with which it is associated The default heading for the list of endnotes is NOTES. To output a different heading, set a value for the man.endnotes.section.heading parameter. The endnotes list is also displayed (but without numbers) if the value of man.endnotes.list.enabled is non-zero. If the value of man.endnotes.are.numbered is zero, numbering of endnotess is suppressed; only inline contents (if any) of the notesource are displayed inline. If you are thinking about disabling endnote numbering by setting the value of man.endnotes.are.numbered to zero, before you do so, first take some time to carefully consider the information needs and experiences of your users. The square-bracketed numbers displayed inline after notesources may seem obstrusive and aesthetically unpleasingAs far as notesources that are links, ytou might think it would be better to just display URLs for non-empty links inline, after their content, rather than displaying square-bracketed numbers all over the place. But it's not better. In fact, it's not even practical, because many (most) URLs for links are too long to be displayed inline. They end up overflowing the right margin. You can set a non-zero value for man.break.after.slash parameter to deal with that, but it could be argued that what you end up with is at least as ugly, and definitely more obstrusive, then having short square-bracketed numbers displayed inline., but in a text-only output format, the numbered-notesources/endnotes-listing mechanism is the only practical way to handle this kind of content. Also, users of “text based” browsers such as lynx will already be accustomed to seeing inline numbers for links. And various "man to html" applications, such as the widely used man2html (VH-Man2html) application, can automatically turn URLs into "real" HTML hyperlinks in output. So leaving man.endnotes.are.numbered at its default (non-zero) value ensures that no information is lost in your man-page output. It just gets “rearranged”. The handling of empty links is not affected by this parameter. Empty links are handled simply by displaying their URLs inline. Empty links are never auto-numbered. If you disable endnotes numbering, you should probably also set man.font.links to an empty value (to disable font formatting for links. Related Parameters man.endnotes.list.enabled, man.font.links man.base.url.for.relative.links string man.base.url.for.relative.links Specifies a base URL for relative links <xsl:param name="man.base.url.for.relative.links">[set $man.base.url.for.relative.links]/</xsl:param> Description For any “notesource” listed in the auto-generated “NOTES” section of output man pages (which is generated when the value of the man.endnotes.list.enabled parameter is non-zero), if the notesource is a link source with a relative URI, the URI is displayed in output with the value of the man.base.url.for.relative.links parameter prepended to the value of the link URI. A link source is an notesource that references an external resource: a ulink element with a url attribute any element with an xlink:href attribute an imagedata, audiodata, or videodata element If you use relative URIs in link sources in your DocBook refentry source, and you leave man.base.url.for.relative.links unset, the relative links will appear “as is” in the “Notes” section of any man-page output generated from your source. That’s probably not what you want, because such relative links are only usable in the context of HTML output. So, to make the links meaningful and usable in the context of man-page output, set a value for man.base.url.for.relative.links that points to the online version of HTML output generated from your DocBook refentry source. For example: <xsl:param name="man.base.url.for.relative.links" >http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/</xsl:param> Related Parameters man.endnotes.list.enabled Lists man.segtitle.suppress boolean man.segtitle.suppress Suppress display of segtitle contents? <xsl:param name="man.segtitle.suppress" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If the value of man.segtitle.suppress is non-zero, then display of segtitle contents is suppressed in output. Character/string substitution man.charmap.enabled boolean man.charmap.enabled Apply character map before final output? <xsl:param name="man.charmap.enabled" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If the value of the man.charmap.enabled parameter is non-zero, a "character map" is used to substitute certain Unicode symbols and special characters with appropriate roff/groff equivalents, just before writing each man-page file to the filesystem. If instead the value of man.charmap.enabled is zero, Unicode characters are passed through "as is". Details For converting certain Unicode symbols and special characters in UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoded XML source to appropriate groff/roff equivalents in man-page output, the DocBook XSL Stylesheets distribution includes a roff character map that is compliant with the XSLT character map format as detailed in the XSLT 2.0 specification. The map contains more than 800 character mappings and can be considered the standard roff character map for the distribution. You can use the man.charmap.uri parameter to specify a URI for the location for an alternate roff character map to use in place of the standard roff character map provided in the distribution. You can also use a subset of a character map. For details, see the man.charmap.use.subset, man.charmap.subset.profile, and man.charmap.subset.profile.english parameters. man.charmap.uri uri man.charmap.uri URI for custom roff character map <xsl:param name="man.charmap.uri"></xsl:param> Description For converting certain Unicode symbols and special characters in UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoded XML source to appropriate groff/roff equivalents in man-page output, the DocBook XSL Stylesheets distribution includes an XSLT character map. That character map can be considered the standard roff character map for the distribution. If the value of the man.charmap.uri parameter is non-empty, that value is used as the URI for the location for an alternate roff character map to use in place of the standard roff character map provided in the distribution. Do not set a value for man.charmap.uri unless you have a custom roff character map that differs from the standard one provided in the distribution. man.charmap.use.subset boolean man.charmap.use.subset Use subset of character map instead of full map? <xsl:param name="man.charmap.use.subset" select="1"></xsl:param> Description If the value of the man.charmap.use.subset parameter is non-zero, a subset of the roff character map is used instead of the full roff character map. The profile of the subset used is determined either by the value of the man.charmap.subset.profile parameter (if the source is not in English) or the man.charmap.subset.profile.english parameter (if the source is in English). You may want to experiment with setting a non-zero value of man.charmap.use.subset, so that the full character map is used. Depending on which XSLT engine you run, setting a non-zero value for man.charmap.use.subset may significantly increase the time needed to process your documents. Or it may not. For example, if you set it and run it with xsltproc, it seems to dramatically increase processing time; on the other hand, if you set it and run it with Saxon, it does not seem to increase processing time nearly as much. If processing time is not a important concern and/or you can tolerate the increase in processing time imposed by using the full character map, set man.charmap.use.subset to zero. Details For converting certain Unicode symbols and special characters in UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoded XML source to appropriate groff/roff equivalents in man-page output, the DocBook XSL Stylesheets distribution includes a roff character map that is compliant with the XSLT character map format as detailed in the XSLT 2.0 specification. The map contains more than 800 character mappings and can be considered the standard roff character map for the distribution. You can use the man.charmap.uri parameter to specify a URI for the location for an alternate roff character map to use in place of the standard roff character map provided in the distribution. Because it is not terrifically efficient to use the standard 800-character character map in full -- and for most (or all) users, never necessary to use it in full -- the DocBook XSL Stylesheets support a mechanism for using, within any given character map, a subset of character mappings instead of the full set. You can use the man.charmap.subset.profile or man.charmap.subset.profile.english parameter to tune the profile of that subset to use. man.charmap.subset.profile string man.charmap.subset.profile Profile of character map subset <xsl:param name="man.charmap.subset.profile"> @*[local-name() = 'block'] = 'Miscellaneous Technical' or (@*[local-name() = 'block'] = 'C1 Controls And Latin-1 Supplement (Latin-1 Supplement)' and (@*[local-name() = 'class'] = 'symbols' or @*[local-name() = 'class'] = 'letters') ) or @*[local-name() = 'block'] = 'Latin Extended-A' or (@*[local-name() = 'block'] = 'General Punctuation' and (@*[local-name() = 'class'] = 'spaces' or @*[local-name() = 'class'] = 'dashes' or @*[local-name() = 'class'] = 'quotes' or @*[local-name() = 'class'] = 'bullets' ) ) or @*[local-name() = 'name'] = 'HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS' or @*[local-name() = 'name'] = 'WORD JOINER' or @*[local-name() = 'name'] = 'SERVICE MARK' or @*[local-name() = 'name'] = 'TRADE MARK SIGN' or @*[local-name() = 'name'] = 'ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE' </xsl:param> Description If the value of the man.charmap.use.subset parameter is non-zero, and your DocBook source is not written in English (that is, if the lang or xml:lang attribute on the root element in your DocBook source or on the first refentry element in your source has a value other than en), then the character-map subset specified by the man.charmap.subset.profile parameter is used instead of the full roff character map. Otherwise, if the lang or xml:lang attribute on the root element in your DocBook source or on the first refentry element in your source has the value en or if it has no lang or xml:lang attribute, then the character-map subset specified by the man.charmap.subset.profile.english parameter is used instead of man.charmap.subset.profile. The difference between the two subsets is that man.charmap.subset.profile provides mappings for characters in Western European languages that are not part of the Roman (English) alphabet (ASCII character set). The value of man.charmap.subset.profile is a string representing an XPath expression that matches attribute names and values for output-character elements in the character map. The attributes supported in the standard roff character map included in the distribution are: character a raw Unicode character or numeric Unicode character-entity value (either in decimal or hex); all characters have this attribute name a standard full/long ISO/Unicode character name (e.g., "OHM SIGN"); all characters have this attribute block a standard Unicode "block" name (e.g., "General Punctuation"); all characters have this attribute. For the full list of Unicode block names supported in the standard roff character map, see . class a class of characters (e.g., "spaces"). Not all characters have this attribute; currently, it is used only with certain characters within the "C1 Controls And Latin-1 Supplement" and "General Punctuation" blocks. For details, see . entity an ISO entity name (e.g., "ohm"); not all characters have this attribute, because not all characters have ISO entity names; for example, of the 800 or so characters in the standard roff character map included in the distribution, only around 300 have ISO entity names. string a string representing an roff/groff escape-code (with "@esc@" used in place of the backslash), or a simple ASCII string; all characters in the roff character map have this attribute The value of man.charmap.subset.profile is evaluated as an XPath expression at run-time to select a portion of the roff character map to use. You can tune the subset used by adding or removing parts. For example, if you need to use a wide range of mathematical operators in a document, and you want to have them converted into roff markup properly, you might add the following: @*[local-name() = 'block'] ='MathematicalOperators' That will cause a additional set of around 67 additional "math" characters to be converted into roff markup. Depending on which XSLT engine you use, either the EXSLT dyn:evaluate extension function (for xsltproc or Xalan) or saxon:evaluate extension function (for Saxon) are used to dynamically evaluate the value of man.charmap.subset.profile at run-time. If you don't use xsltproc, Saxon, Xalan -- or some other XSLT engine that supports dyn:evaluate -- you must either set the value of the man.charmap.use.subset parameter to zero and process your documents using the full character map instead, or set the value of the man.charmap.enabled parameter to zero instead (so that character-map processing is disabled completely. An alternative to using man.charmap.subset.profile is to create your own custom character map, and set the value of man.charmap.uri to the URI/filename for that. If you use a custom character map, you will probably want to include in it just the characters you want to use, and so you will most likely also want to set the value of man.charmap.use.subset to zero. You can create a custom character map by making a copy of the standard roff character map provided in the distribution, and then adding to, changing, and/or deleting from that. If you author your DocBook XML source in UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoding and aren't sure what OSes or environments your man-page output might end up being viewed on, and not sure what version of nroff/groff those environments might have, you should be careful about what Unicode symbols and special characters you use in your source and what parts you add to the value of man.charmap.subset.profile. Many of the escape codes used are specific to groff and using them may not provide the expected output on an OS or environment that uses nroff instead of groff. On the other hand, if you intend for your man-page output to be viewed only on modern systems (for example, GNU/Linux systems, FreeBSD systems, or Cygwin environments) that have a good, up-to-date groff, then you can safely include a wide range of Unicode symbols and special characters in your UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoded DocBook XML source and add any of the supported Unicode block names to the value of man.charmap.subset.profile. For other details, see the documentation for the man.charmap.use.subset parameter. Supported Unicode block names and "class" values Below is the full list of Unicode block names and "class" values supported in the standard roff stylesheet provided in the distribution, along with a description of which codepoints from the Unicode range corresponding to that block name or block/class combination are supported. C1 Controls And Latin-1 Supplement (Latin-1 Supplement) (x00a0 to x00ff) class values symbols letters Latin Extended-A (x0100 to x017f, partial) Spacing Modifier Letters (x02b0 to x02ee, partial) Greek and Coptic (x0370 to x03ff, partial) General Punctuation (x2000 to x206f, partial) class values spaces dashes quotes daggers bullets leaders primes Superscripts and Subscripts (x2070 to x209f) Currency Symbols (x20a0 to x20b1) Letterlike Symbols (x2100 to x214b) Number Forms (x2150 to x218f) Arrows (x2190 to x21ff, partial) Mathematical Operators (x2200 to x22ff, partial) Control Pictures (x2400 to x243f) Enclosed Alphanumerics (x2460 to x24ff) Geometric Shapes (x25a0 to x25f7, partial) Miscellaneous Symbols (x2600 to x26ff, partial) Dingbats (x2700 to x27be, partial) Alphabetic Presentation Forms (xfb00 to xfb04 only) man.charmap.subset.profile.english string man.charmap.subset.profile.english Profile of character map subset <xsl:param name="man.charmap.subset.profile.english"> @*[local-name() = 'block'] = 'Miscellaneous Technical' or (@*[local-name() = 'block'] = 'C1 Controls And Latin-1 Supplement (Latin-1 Supplement)' and @*[local-name() = 'class'] = 'symbols') or (@*[local-name() = 'block'] = 'General Punctuation' and (@*[local-name() = 'class'] = 'spaces' or @*[local-name() = 'class'] = 'dashes' or @*[local-name() = 'class'] = 'quotes' or @*[local-name() = 'class'] = 'bullets' ) ) or @*[local-name() = 'name'] = 'HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS' or @*[local-name() = 'name'] = 'WORD JOINER' or @*[local-name() = 'name'] = 'SERVICE MARK' or @*[local-name() = 'name'] = 'TRADE MARK SIGN' or @*[local-name() = 'name'] = 'ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE' </xsl:param> Description If the value of the man.charmap.use.subset parameter is non-zero, and your DocBook source is written in English (that is, if its lang or xml:lang attribute on the root element in your DocBook source or on the first refentry element in your source has the value en or if it has no lang or xml:lang attribute), then the character-map subset specified by the man.charmap.subset.profile.english parameter is used instead of the full roff character map. Otherwise, if the lang or xml:lang attribute on the root element in your DocBook source or on the first refentry element in your source has a value other than en, then the character-map subset specified by the man.charmap.subset.profile parameter is used instead of man.charmap.subset.profile.english. The difference between the two subsets is that man.charmap.subset.profile provides mappings for characters in Western European languages that are not part of the Roman (English) alphabet (ASCII character set). The value of man.charmap.subset.profile.english is a string representing an XPath expression that matches attribute names and values for output-character elements in the character map. For other details, see the documentation for the man.charmap.subset.profile.english and man.charmap.use.subset parameters. man.string.subst.map.local.pre string man.string.subst.map.local.pre Specifies “local” string substitutions <xsl:param name="man.string.subst.map.local.pre"></xsl:param> Description Use the man.string.subst.map.local.pre parameter to specify any “local” string substitutions to perform over the entire roff source for each man page before performing the string substitutions specified by the man.string.subst.map parameter. For details about the format of this parameter, see the documentation for the man.string.subst.map parameter. man.string.subst.map rtf man.string.subst.map Specifies a set of string substitutions <xsl:param name="man.string.subst.map">  <ss:substitution oldstring="▒▀" newstring="▒"></ss:substitution>  <ss:substitution oldstring="▀" newstring="\ "></ss:substitution>   <ss:substitution oldstring=" ." newstring=" ."></ss:substitution>  <ss:substitution oldstring=".sp .PP" newstring=".PP"></ss:substitution>  <ss:substitution oldstring=".sp .sp" newstring=".sp"></ss:substitution>  <ss:substitution oldstring=".PP .sp" newstring=".PP"></ss:substitution>  <ss:substitution oldstring=".nf " newstring=".nf "></ss:substitution>  <ss:substitution oldstring=".RE " newstring=".RE "></ss:substitution>   <ss:substitution oldstring="░" newstring=" "></ss:substitution>  <ss:substitution oldstring="▒" newstring=" "></ss:substitution>      <ss:substitution oldstring="•" newstring="\(bu"></ss:substitution>  <ss:substitution oldstring="“" newstring="\(lq"></ss:substitution>  <ss:substitution oldstring="”" newstring="\(rq"></ss:substitution>  <ss:substitution oldstring="‘" newstring="\(oq"></ss:substitution>  <ss:substitution oldstring="’" newstring="\(cq"></ss:substitution>  <ss:substitution oldstring="©" newstring="\(co"></ss:substitution>  <ss:substitution oldstring="®" newstring="\(rg"></ss:substitution>   <ss:substitution oldstring="℠" newstring="(SM)"></ss:substitution>          <ss:substitution oldstring="™" newstring="(TM)"></ss:substitution> </xsl:param> Description The man.string.subst.map parameter contains a map that specifies a set of string substitutions to perform over the entire roff source for each man page, either just before generating final man-page output (that is, before writing man-page files to disk) or, if the value of the man.charmap.enabled parameter is non-zero, before applying the roff character map. You can use man.string.subst.map as a “lightweight” character map to perform “essential” substitutions -- that is, substitutions that are always performed, even if the value of the man.charmap.enabled parameter is zero. For example, you can use it to replace quotation marks or other special characters that are generated by the DocBook XSL stylesheets for a particular locale setting (as opposed to those characters that are actually in source XML documents), or to replace any special characters that may be automatically generated by a particular customization of the DocBook XSL stylesheets. Do you not change value of the man.string.subst.map parameter unless you are sure what you are doing. First consider adding your string-substitution mappings to either or both of the following parameters: man.string.subst.map.local.pre applied before man.string.subst.map man.string.subst.map.local.post applied after man.string.subst.map By default, both of those parameters contain no string substitutions. They are intended as a means for you to specify your own local string-substitution mappings. If you remove any of default mappings from the value of the man.string.subst.map parameter, you are likely to end up with broken output. And be very careful about adding anything to it; it’s used for doing string substitution over the entire roff source of each man page – it causes target strings to be replaced in roff requests and escapes, not just in the visible contents of the page. Contents of the substitution map The string-substitution map contains one or more ss:substitution elements, each of which has two attributes: oldstring string to replace newstring string with which to replace oldstring It may also include XML comments (that is, delimited with ""). man.string.subst.map.local.post string man.string.subst.map.local.post Specifies “local” string substitutions <xsl:param name="man.string.subst.map.local.post"></xsl:param> Description Use the man.string.subst.map.local.post parameter to specify any “local” string substitutions to perform over the entire roff source for each man page after performing the string substitutions specified by the man.string.subst.map parameter. For details about the format of this parameter, see the documentation for the man.string.subst.map parameter. Refentry metadata gathering refentry.meta.get.quietly boolean refentry.meta.get.quietly Suppress notes and warnings when gathering refentry metadata? <xsl:param name="refentry.meta.get.quietly" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If zero (the default), notes and warnings about “missing” markup are generated during gathering of refentry metadata. If non-zero, the metadata is gathered “quietly” -- that is, the notes and warnings are suppressed. If you are processing a large amount of refentry content, you may be able to speed up processing significantly by setting a non-zero value for refentry.meta.get.quietly. refentry.date.profile string refentry.date.profile Specifies profile for refentry "date" data <xsl:param name="refentry.date.profile"> (($info[//date])[last()]/date)[1]| (($info[//pubdate])[last()]/pubdate)[1] </xsl:param> Description The value of refentry.date.profile is a string representing an XPath expression. It is evaluated at run-time and used only if refentry.date.profile.enabled is non-zero. Otherwise, the refentry metadata-gathering logic "hard coded" into the stylesheets is used. The man(7) man page describes this content as "the date of the last revision". In man pages, it is the content that is usually displayed in the center footer. refentry.date.profile.enabled boolean refentry.date.profile.enabled Enable refentry "date" profiling? <xsl:param name="refentry.date.profile.enabled">0</xsl:param> Description If the value of refentry.date.profile.enabled is non-zero, then during refentry metadata gathering, the info profile specified by the customizable refentry.date.profile parameter is used. If instead the value of refentry.date.profile.enabled is zero (the default), then "hard coded" logic within the DocBook XSL stylesheets is used for gathering refentry "date" data. If you find that the default refentry metadata-gathering behavior is causing incorrect "date" data to show up in your output, then consider setting a non-zero value for refentry.date.profile.enabled and adjusting the value of refentry.date.profile to cause correct data to be gathered. Note that the terms "source" and "date" have special meanings in this context. For details, see the documentation for the refentry.date.profile parameter. refentry.manual.profile string refentry.manual.profile Specifies profile for refentry "manual" data <xsl:param name="refentry.manual.profile"> (($info[//title])[last()]/title)[1]| ../title/node() </xsl:param> Description The value of refentry.manual.profile is a string representing an XPath expression. It is evaluated at run-time and used only if refentry.manual.profile.enabled is non-zero. Otherwise, the refentry metadata-gathering logic "hard coded" into the stylesheets is used. In man pages, this content is usually displayed in the middle of the header of the page. The man(7) man page describes this as "the title of the manual (e.g., Linux Programmer's Manual)". Here are some examples from existing man pages: dpkg utilities (dpkg-name) User Contributed Perl Documentation (GET) GNU Development Tools (ld) Emperor Norton Utilities (ddate) Debian GNU/Linux manual (faked) GIMP Manual Pages (gimp) KDOC Documentation System (qt2kdoc) refentry.manual.profile.enabled boolean refentry.manual.profile.enabled Enable refentry "manual" profiling? <xsl:param name="refentry.manual.profile.enabled">0</xsl:param> Description If the value of refentry.manual.profile.enabled is non-zero, then during refentry metadata gathering, the info profile specified by the customizable refentry.manual.profile parameter is used. If instead the value of refentry.manual.profile.enabled is zero (the default), then "hard coded" logic within the DocBook XSL stylesheets is used for gathering refentry "manual" data. If you find that the default refentry metadata-gathering behavior is causing incorrect "manual" data to show up in your output, then consider setting a non-zero value for refentry.manual.profile.enabled and adjusting the value of refentry.manual.profile to cause correct data to be gathered. Note that the term "manual" has a special meanings in this context. For details, see the documentation for the refentry.manual.profile parameter. refentry.source.name.suppress boolean refentry.source.name.suppress Suppress "name" part of refentry "source" contents? <xsl:param name="refentry.source.name.suppress">0</xsl:param> Description If the value of refentry.source.name.suppress is non-zero, then during refentry metadata gathering, no "source name" data is added to the refentry "source" contents. Instead (unless refentry.version.suppress is also non-zero), only "version" data is added to the "source" contents. If you find that the refentry metadata gathering mechanism is causing unwanted "source name" data to show up in your output -- for example, in the footer (or possibly header) of a man page -- then you might consider setting a non-zero value for refentry.source.name.suppress. Note that the terms "source", "source name", and "version" have special meanings in this context. For details, see the documentation for the refentry.source.name.profile parameter. refentry.source.name.profile string refentry.source.name.profile Specifies profile for refentry "source name" data <xsl:param name="refentry.source.name.profile"> (($info[//productname])[last()]/productname)[1]| (($info[//corpname])[last()]/corpname)[1]| (($info[//corpcredit])[last()]/corpcredit)[1]| (($info[//corpauthor])[last()]/corpauthor)[1]| (($info[//orgname])[last()]/orgname)[1]| (($info[//publishername])[last()]/publishername)[1] </xsl:param> Description The value of refentry.source.name.profile is a string representing an XPath expression. It is evaluated at run-time and used only if refentry.source.name.profile.enabled is non-zero. Otherwise, the refentry metadata-gathering logic "hard coded" into the stylesheets is used. A "source name" is one part of a (potentially) two-part Name Version "source" field. In man pages, it is usually displayed in the left footer of the page. It typically indicates the software system or product that the item documented in the man page belongs to. The man(7) man page describes it as "the source of the command", and provides the following examples: For binaries, use something like: GNU, NET-2, SLS Distribution, MCC Distribution. For system calls, use the version of the kernel that you are currently looking at: Linux 0.99.11. For library calls, use the source of the function: GNU, BSD 4.3, Linux DLL 4.4.1. In practice, there are many pages that simply have a Version number in the "source" field. So, it looks like what we have is a two-part field, Name Version, where: Name product name (e.g., BSD) or org. name (e.g., GNU) Version version number Each part is optional. If the Name is a product name, then the Version is probably the version of the product. Or there may be no Name, in which case, if there is a Version, it is probably the version of the item itself, not the product it is part of. Or, if the Name is an organization name, then there probably will be no Version. refentry.source.name.profile.enabled boolean refentry.source.name.profile.enabled Enable refentry "source name" profiling? <xsl:param name="refentry.source.name.profile.enabled">0</xsl:param> Description If the value of refentry.source.name.profile.enabled is non-zero, then during refentry metadata gathering, the info profile specified by the customizable refentry.source.name.profile parameter is used. If instead the value of refentry.source.name.profile.enabled is zero (the default), then "hard coded" logic within the DocBook XSL stylesheets is used for gathering refentry "source name" data. If you find that the default refentry metadata-gathering behavior is causing incorrect "source name" data to show up in your output, then consider setting a non-zero value for refentry.source.name.profile.enabled and adjusting the value of refentry.source.name.profile to cause correct data to be gathered. Note that the terms "source" and "source name" have special meanings in this context. For details, see the documentation for the refentry.source.name.profile parameter. refentry.version.suppress boolean refentry.version.suppress Suppress "version" part of refentry "source" contents? <xsl:param name="refentry.version.suppress">0</xsl:param> Description If the value of refentry.version.suppress is non-zero, then during refentry metadata gathering, no "version" data is added to the refentry "source" contents. Instead (unless refentry.source.name.suppress is also non-zero), only "source name" data is added to the "source" contents. If you find that the refentry metadata gathering mechanism is causing unwanted "version" data to show up in your output -- for example, in the footer (or possibly header) of a man page -- then you might consider setting a non-zero value for refentry.version.suppress. Note that the terms "source", "source name", and "version" have special meanings in this context. For details, see the documentation for the refentry.source.name.profile parameter. refentry.version.profile string refentry.version.profile Specifies profile for refentry "version" data <xsl:param name="refentry.version.profile"> (($info[//productnumber])[last()]/productnumber)[1]| (($info[//edition])[last()]/edition)[1]| (($info[//releaseinfo])[last()]/releaseinfo)[1] </xsl:param> Description The value of refentry.version.profile is a string representing an XPath expression. It is evaluated at run-time and used only if refentry.version.profile.enabled is non-zero. Otherwise, the refentry metadata-gathering logic "hard coded" into the stylesheets is used. A "source.name" is one part of a (potentially) two-part Name Version "source" field. For more details, see the documentation for the refentry.source.name.profile parameter. refentry.version.profile.enabled boolean refentry.version.profile.enabled Enable refentry "version" profiling? <xsl:param name="refentry.version.profile.enabled">0</xsl:param> Description If the value of refentry.version.profile.enabled is non-zero, then during refentry metadata gathering, the info profile specified by the customizable refentry.version.profile parameter is used. If instead the value of refentry.version.profile.enabled is zero (the default), then "hard coded" logic within the DocBook XSL stylesheets is used for gathering refentry "version" data. If you find that the default refentry metadata-gathering behavior is causing incorrect "version" data to show up in your output, then consider setting a non-zero value for refentry.version.profile.enabled and adjusting the value of refentry.version.profile to cause correct data to be gathered. Note that the terms "source" and "version" have special meanings in this context. For details, see the documentation for the refentry.version.profile parameter. refentry.manual.fallback.profile string refentry.manual.fallback.profile Specifies profile of "fallback" for refentry "manual" data <xsl:param name="refentry.manual.fallback.profile"> refmeta/refmiscinfo[not(@class = 'date')][1]/node()</xsl:param> Description The value of refentry.manual.fallback.profile is a string representing an XPath expression. It is evaluated at run-time and used only if no "manual" data can be found by other means (that is, either using the refentry metadata-gathering logic "hard coded" in the stylesheets, or the value of refentry.manual.profile, if it is enabled). Depending on which XSLT engine you run, either the EXSLT dyn:evaluate extension function (for xsltproc or Xalan) or saxon:evaluate extension function (for Saxon) are used to dynamically evaluate the value of refentry.manual.fallback.profile at run-time. If you don't use xsltproc, Saxon, Xalan -- or some other XSLT engine that supports dyn:evaluate -- you must manually disable fallback processing by setting an empty value for the refentry.manual.fallback.profile parameter. refentry.source.fallback.profile string refentry.source.fallback.profile Specifies profile of "fallback" for refentry "source" data <xsl:param name="refentry.source.fallback.profile"> refmeta/refmiscinfo[not(@class = 'date')][1]/node()</xsl:param> Description The value of refentry.source.fallback.profile is a string representing an XPath expression. It is evaluated at run-time and used only if no "source" data can be found by other means (that is, either using the refentry metadata-gathering logic "hard coded" in the stylesheets, or the value of the refentry.source.name.profile and refentry.version.profile parameters, if those are enabled). Depending on which XSLT engine you run, either the EXSLT dyn:evaluate extension function (for xsltproc or Xalan) or saxon:evaluate extension function (for Saxon) are used to dynamically evaluate the value of refentry.source.fallback.profile at run-time. If you don't use xsltproc, Saxon, Xalan -- or some other XSLT engine that supports dyn:evaluate -- you must manually disable fallback processing by setting an empty value for the refentry.source.fallback.profile parameter. Page header/footer man.th.extra1.suppress boolean man.th.extra1.suppress Suppress extra1 part of header/footer? <xsl:param name="man.th.extra1.suppress">0</xsl:param> Description If the value of man.th.extra1.suppress is non-zero, then the extra1 part of the .TH title line header/footer is suppressed. The content of the extra1 field is almost always displayed in the center footer of the page and is, universally, a date. man.th.extra2.suppress boolean man.th.extra2.suppress Suppress extra2 part of header/footer? <xsl:param name="man.th.extra2.suppress">0</xsl:param> Description If the value of man.th.extra2.suppress is non-zero, then the extra2 part of the .TH title line header/footer is suppressed. The content of the extra2 field is usually displayed in the left footer of the page and is typically "source" data, often in the form Name Version; for example, "GTK+ 1.2" (from the gtk-options(7) man page). You can use the refentry.source.name.suppress and refentry.version.suppress parameters to independently suppress the Name and Version parts of the extra2 field. man.th.extra3.suppress boolean man.th.extra3.suppress Suppress extra3 part of header/footer? <xsl:param name="man.th.extra3.suppress">0</xsl:param> Description If the value of man.th.extra3.suppress is non-zero, then the extra3 part of the .TH title line header/footer is suppressed. The content of the extra3 field is usually displayed in the middle header of the page and is typically a "manual name"; for example, "GTK+ User's Manual" (from the gtk-options(7) man page). man.th.title.max.length integer man.th.title.max.length Maximum length of title in header/footer <xsl:param name="man.th.title.max.length">20</xsl:param> Description Specifies the maximum permitted length of the title part of the man-page .TH title line header/footer. If the title exceeds the maxiumum specified, it is truncated down to the maximum permitted length. Details Every man page generated using the DocBook stylesheets has a title line, specified using the TH roff macro. Within that title line, there is always, at a minimum, a title, followed by a section value (representing a man "section" -- usually just a number). The title and section are displayed, together, in the visible header of each page. Where in the header they are displayed depends on OS the man page is viewed on, and on what version of nroff/groff/man is used for viewing the page. But, at a minimum and across all systems, the title and section are displayed on the right-hand column of the header. On many systems -- those with a modern groff, including Linux systems -- they are displayed twice: both in the left and right columns of the header. So if the length of the title exceeds a certain percentage of the column width in which the page is viewed, the left and right titles can end up overlapping, making them unreadable, or breaking to another line, which doesn't look particularly good. So the stylesheets provide the man.th.title.max.length parameter as a means for truncating titles that exceed the maximum length that can be viewing properly in a page header. The default value is reasonable but somewhat arbitrary. If you have pages with long titles, you may want to experiment with changing the value in order to achieve the correct aesthetic results. man.th.extra2.max.length integer man.th.extra2.max.length Maximum length of extra2 in header/footer <xsl:param name="man.th.extra2.max.length">30</xsl:param> Description Specifies the maximum permitted length of the extra2 part of the man-page part of the .TH title line header/footer. If the extra2 content exceeds the maxiumum specified, it is truncated down to the maximum permitted length. The content of the extra2 field is usually displayed in the left footer of the page and is typically "source" data indicating the software system or product that the item documented in the man page belongs to, often in the form Name Version; for example, "GTK+ 1.2" (from the gtk-options(7) man page). The default value for this parameter is reasonable but somewhat arbitrary. If you are processing pages with long "source" information, you may want to experiment with changing the value in order to achieve the correct aesthetic results. man.th.extra3.max.length integer man.th.extra3.max.length Maximum length of extra3 in header/footer <xsl:param name="man.th.extra3.max.length">30</xsl:param> Description Specifies the maximum permitted length of the extra3 part of the man-page .TH title line header/footer. If the extra3 content exceeds the maxiumum specified, it is truncated down to the maximum permitted length. The content of the extra3 field is usually displayed in the middle header of the page and is typically a "manual name"; for example, "GTK+ User's Manual" (from the gtk-options(7) man page). The default value for this parameter is reasonable but somewhat arbitrary. If you are processing pages with long "manual names" -- or especially if you are processing pages that have both long "title" parts (command/function, etc. names) and long manual names -- you may want to experiment with changing the value in order to achieve the correct aesthetic results. Output man.output.manifest.enabled boolean man.output.manifest.enabled Generate a manifest file? <xsl:param name="man.output.manifest.enabled" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If non-zero, a list of filenames for man pages generated by the stylesheet transformation is written to the file named by the man.output.manifest.filename parameter. man.output.manifest.filename string man.output.manifest.filename Name of manifest file <xsl:param name="man.output.manifest.filename">MAN.MANIFEST</xsl:param> Description The man.output.manifest.filename parameter specifies the name of the file to which the manpages manifest file is written (if the value of the man.output.manifest.enabled parameter is non-zero). man.output.in.separate.dir boolean man.output.in.separate.dir Output man-page files in separate output directory? <xsl:param name="man.output.in.separate.dir" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If the value of man.output.in.separate.dir parameter is non-zero, man-page files are output in a separate directory, specified by the man.output.base.dir parameter; otherwise, if the value of man.output.in.separate.dir is zero, man-page files are not output in a separate directory. man.output.lang.in.name.enabled boolean man.output.lang.in.name.enabled Include $LANG value in man-page filename/pathname? <xsl:param name="man.output.lang.in.name.enabled" select="0"></xsl:param> Description The man.output.lang.in.name.enabled parameter specifies whether a $lang value is included in man-page filenames and pathnames. If the value of man.output.lang.in.name.enabled is non-zero, man-page files are output with the $lang value included in their filenames or pathnames as follows; if man.output.subdirs.enabled is non-zero, each file is output to, e.g., a man/$lang/man8/foo.8 pathname if man.output.subdirs.enabled is zero, each file is output with a foo.$lang.8 filename man.output.base.dir uri man.output.base.dir Specifies separate output directory <xsl:param name="man.output.base.dir">man/</xsl:param> Description The man.output.base.dir parameter specifies the base directory into which man-page files are output. The man.output.subdirs.enabled parameter controls whether the files are output in subdirectories within the base directory. The values of the man.output.base.dir and man.output.subdirs.enabled parameters are used only if the value of man.output.in.separate.dir parameter is non-zero. If the value of the man.output.in.separate.dir is zero, man-page files are not output in a separate directory. man.output.subdirs.enabled boolean man.output.subdirs.enabled Output man-page files in subdirectories within base output directory? <xsl:param name="man.output.subdirs.enabled" select="1"></xsl:param> Description The man.output.subdirs.enabled parameter controls whether man-pages files are output in subdirectories within the base directory specified by the directory specified by the man.output.base.dir parameter. The values of the man.output.base.dir and man.output.subdirs.enabled parameters are used only if the value of man.output.in.separate.dir parameter is non-zero. If the value of the man.output.in.separate.dir is zero, man-page files are not output in a separate directory. man.output.quietly boolean man.output.quietly Suppress filename messages emitted when generating output? <xsl:param name="man.output.quietly" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If zero (the default), for each man-page file created, a message with the name of the file is emitted. If non-zero, the files are output "quietly" -- that is, the filename messages are suppressed. If you are processing a large amount of refentry content, you may be able to speed up processing significantly by setting a non-zero value for man.output.quietly. man.output.encoding string man.output.encoding Encoding used for man-page output <xsl:param name="man.output.encoding">UTF-8</xsl:param> Description This parameter specifies the encoding to use for files generated by the manpages stylesheet. Not all processors support specification of this parameter. If the value of the man.charmap.enabled parameter is non-zero (the default), keeping the man.output.encoding parameter at its default value (UTF-8) or setting it to UTF-16 does not cause your man pages to be output in raw UTF-8 or UTF-16 -- because any Unicode characters for which matches are found in the enabled character map will be replaced with roff escape sequences before the final man-page files are generated. So if you want to generate "real" UTF-8 man pages, without any character substitution being performed on your content, you need to set man.charmap.enabled to zero (which will completely disable character-map processing). You may also need to set man.charmap.enabled to zero if you want to output man pages in an encoding other than UTF-8 or UTF-16. Character-map processing is based on Unicode character values and may not work with other output encodings. man.output.better.ps.enabled boolean man.output.better.ps.enabled Enable enhanced print/PostScript output? <xsl:param name="man.output.better.ps.enabled">0</xsl:param> Description If the value of the man.output.better.ps.enabled parameter is non-zero, certain markup is embedded in each generated man page such that PostScript output from the man -Tps command for that page will include a number of enhancements designed to improve the quality of that output. If man.output.better.ps.enabled is zero (the default), no such markup is embedded in generated man pages, and no enhancements are included in the PostScript output generated from those man pages by the man -Tps command. The enhancements provided by this parameter rely on features that are specific to groff (GNU troff) and that are not part of “classic” AT&T troff or any of its derivatives. Therefore, any man pages you generate with this parameter enabled will be readable only on systems on which the groff (GNU troff) program is installed, such as GNU/Linux systems. The pages will not not be readable on systems on with the classic troff (AT&T troff) command is installed. The value of this parameter only affects PostScript output generated from the man command. It has no effect on output generated using the FO backend. You can generate PostScript output for any man page by running the following command: man FOO -Tps > FOO.ps You can then generate PDF output by running the following command: ps2pdf FOO.ps Other man.table.footnotes.divider string man.table.footnotes.divider Specifies divider string that appears before table footnotes <xsl:param name="man.table.footnotes.divider">----</xsl:param> Description In each table that contains footenotes, the string specified by the man.table.footnotes.divider parameter is output before the list of footnotes for the table. man.subheading.divider.enabled boolean man.subheading.divider.enabled Add divider comment to roff source before/after subheadings? <xsl:param name="man.subheading.divider.enabled">0</xsl:param> Description If the value of the man.subheading.divider.enabled parameter is non-zero, the contents of the man.subheading.divider parameter are used to add a "divider" before and after subheadings in the roff output. The divider is not visisble in the rendered man page; it is added as a comment, in the source, simply for the purpose of increasing reability of the source. If man.subheading.divider.enabled is zero (the default), the subheading divider is suppressed. man.subheading.divider string man.subheading.divider Specifies string to use as divider comment before/after subheadings <xsl:param name="man.subheading.divider">========================================================================</xsl:param> Description If the value of the man.subheading.divider.enabled parameter is non-zero, the contents of the man.subheading.divider parameter are used to add a "divider" before and after subheadings in the roff output. The divider is not visisble in the rendered man page; it is added as a comment, in the source, simply for the purpose of increasing reability of the source. If man.subheading.divider.enabled is zero (the default), the subheading divider is suppressed. Roundtrip Parameter Reference This is reference documentation for all user-configurable parameters in the DocBook “Roundtrip” Stylesheets (for transforming DocBook to WordML, OpenDocument, and Apple Pages, and for converting from those formats back to DocBook). wordml.template uri wordml.template Specify the template WordML document <xsl:param name="wordml.template"></xsl:param> Description The wordml.template parameter specifies a WordML document to use as a template for the generated document. The template document is used to define the (extensive) headers for the generated document, in particular the paragraph and character styles that are used to format the various elements. Any content in the template document is ignored. A template document is used in order to allow maintenance of the paragraph and character styles to be done using Word itself, rather than these XSL stylesheets. pages.template uri pages.template Specify the template Pages document <xsl:param name="pages.template"></xsl:param> Description The pages.template parameter specifies a Pages (the Apple word processing application) document to use as a template for the generated document. The template document is used to define the (extensive) headers for the generated document, in particular the paragraph and character styles that are used to format the various elements. Any content in the template document is ignored. A template document is used in order to allow maintenance of the paragraph and character styles to be done using Pages itself, rather than these XSL stylesheets. Slides Parameter Reference This is reference documentation for all user-configurable parameters in the DocBook XSL Slides stylesheets (for generating HTML and PDF slide presentations). The Slides stylesheet for HTML output is a customization layer of the DocBook XSL HTML stylesheet; the Slides stylesheet for FO output is a customization layer of the DocBook XSL FO stylesheet. Therefore, in addition to the slides-specific parameters listed in this section, you can also use a number of HTML stylesheet parameters and FO stylesheet parameters to control Slides output.

FO: Property Sets slides.properties attribute set slides.properties Specifies properties for all slides <xsl:attribute-set name="slides.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-family"> <xsl:value-of select="$slide.font.family"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This parameter specifies properties that are applied to all slides. foilgroup.properties attribute set foilgroup.properties Specifies properties for all foilgroups <xsl:attribute-set name="foilgroup.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-family"> <xsl:value-of select="$slide.font.family"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This parameter specifies properties that are applied to all foilgroups. foil.subtitle.properties attribute set foil.subtitle.properties Specifies properties for all foil subtitles <xsl:attribute-set name="foil.subtitle.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-family"> <xsl:value-of select="$slide.title.font.family"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="text-align">center</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-size"> <xsl:value-of select="$foil.title.master * 0.8"></xsl:value-of><xsl:text>pt</xsl:text> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="space-after">12pt</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This parameter specifies properties that are applied to all foil subtitles. foil.properties attribute set foil.properties Specifies properties for all foils <xsl:attribute-set name="foil.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-family"> <xsl:value-of select="$slide.font.family"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="margin-{$direction.align.start}">1in</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="margin-{$direction.align.end}">1in</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-size"> <xsl:value-of select="$body.font.size"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-weight">bold</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This parameter specifies properties that are applied to all foils. speakernote.properties attribute set speakernote.properties Specifies properties for all speakernotes <xsl:attribute-set name="speakernote.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-family">Times Roman</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-style">italic</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-size">12pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-weight">normal</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This parameter specifies properties that are applied to all speakernotes. running.foot.properties attribute set running.foot.properties Specifies properties for running foot on each slide <xsl:attribute-set name="running.foot.properties"> <xsl:attribute name="font-family"> <xsl:value-of select="$slide.font.family"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="font-size">14pt</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="color">#9F9F9F</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description This parameter specifies properties that are applied to the running foot area of each slide. Website Parameter Reference This is reference documentation for all user-configurable parameters in the DocBook XSL Website stylesheet (for generating websites from DocBook XML sources). Note that the Website stylesheet is a customization layer of the DocBook XSL HTML stylesheet. Therefore, in addition to the Website-specific parameters listed in this section, you can also use a number of HTML stylesheet parameters to control Website output. General Parameters autolayout-file filename autolayout-file Identifies the autolayout.xml file <xsl:param name="autolayout-file">autolayout.xml</xsl:param> Description When the source pages are spread over several directories, this parameter can be set (for example, from the command line of a batch-mode XSLT processor) to indicate the location of the autolayout.xml file. FIXME: for browser-based use, there needs to be a PI for this... body.attributes attribute set body.attributes DEPRECATED <xsl:attribute-set name="body.attributes"> <xsl:attribute name="bgcolor">white</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="text">black</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="link">#0000FF</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="vlink">#840084</xsl:attribute> <xsl:attribute name="alink">#0000FF</xsl:attribute> </xsl:attribute-set> Description DEPRECATED currentpage.marker string currentpage.marker The text symbol used to mark the current page <xsl:param name="currentpage.marker">@</xsl:param> Description Character to use as identifying the current page in dry-run boolean dry-run Indicates that no files should be produced <xsl:param name="dry-run" select="0"></xsl:param> Description When using the XSLT processor to manage dependencies and construct the website, this parameter can be used to suppress the generation of new and updated files. Effectively, this allows you to see what the stylesheet would do, without actually making any changes. Only applies when XSLT-based chunking is being used. feedback.href uri feedback.href HREF (URI) for feedback link <xsl:param name="feedback.href"></xsl:param> Description The feedback.href value is used as the value for the href attribute on the feedback link. If feedback.href is empty, no feedback link is generated. feedback.link.text string feedback.link.text The text of the feedback link <xsl:param name="feedback.link.text">Feedback</xsl:param> Description The contents of this variable is used as the text of the feedback link if feedback.href is not empty. If feedback.href is empty, no feedback link is generated. feedback.with.ids boolean feedback.with.ids Toggle use of IDs in feedback <xsl:param name="feedback.with.ids" select="0"></xsl:param> Description If feedback.with.ids is non-zero, the ID of the current page will be added to the feedback link. This can be used, for example, if the feedback.href is a CGI script. filename-prefix string filename-prefix Prefix added to all filenames <xsl:param name="filename-prefix"></xsl:param> Description To produce the text-only (that is, non-tabular) layout of a website simultaneously with the tabular layout, the filenames have to be distinguished. That's accomplished by adding the filename-prefix to the front of each filename. output-root filename output-root Specifies the root directory of the website <xsl:param name="output-root">.</xsl:param> Description When using the XSLT processor to manage dependencies and construct the website, this parameter can be used to indicate the root directory where the resulting pages are placed. Only applies when XSLT-based chunking is being used. rebuild-all boolean rebuild-all Indicates that all files should be produced <xsl:param name="rebuild-all" select="0"></xsl:param> Description When using the XSLT processor to manage dependencies and construct the website, this parameter can be used to regenerate the whole website, updating even pages that don't appear to need to be updated.

The referenced file may contain plain text (as long as it is “wrapped” in an html element — see the note below) or markup in any arbitrary vocabulary, including HTML — but it must conform to XML well-formedness constraints (because the feature in XSLT 1.0 for opening external files, the document() function, can only handle files that meet XML well-formedness constraints). Among other things, XML well-formedness constraints require a document to have a single root element. So if the content you want to include is plain text or is markup that does not have a single root element, wrap the content in an html element. The stylesheets will strip out that surrounding html “wrapper” when they find it, leaving just the content you want to insert.

You add these PIs at particular points in a document to cause specific “exceptions” to formatting/output behavior. To make global changes in formatting/output behavior across an entire document, it’s better to do it by setting an appropriate stylesheet parameter (if there is one). dbman_funcsynopsis-style Specifies presentation style for a funcsynopsis. dbman funcsynopsis-style="kr"|"ansi" Description Use the dbman funcsynopsis-style PI as a child of a funcsynopsis or anywhere within a funcsynopsis to control the presentation style for output of all funcprototype instances within that funcsynopsis. Parameters funcsynopsis-style="kr" Displays the funcprototype in K&R style funcsynopsis-style="ansi" Displays the funcprototype in ANSI style Related Global Parameters man.funcsynopsis.style Common Processing Instruction Reference $Id: pi.xsl 8782 2010-07-27 21:15:17Z mzjn $ Introduction This is generated reference documentation for all user-specifiable processing instructions (PIs) in the “common” part of the DocBook XSL stylesheets. You add these PIs at particular points in a document to cause specific “exceptions” to formatting/output behavior. To make global changes in formatting/output behavior across an entire document, it’s better to do it by setting an appropriate stylesheet parameter (if there is one). dbchoice_choice Generates a localized choice separator dbchoice choice="and"|"or"|string" Description Use the dbchoice choice PI to generate an appropriate localized “choice” separator (for example, and or or) before the final item in an inline simplelist This PI is a less-than-ideal hack; support for it may disappear in the future (particularly if and when a more appropriate means for marking up "choice" lists becomes available in DocBook). Parameters choice="and" generates a localized and separator choice="or" generates a localized or separator choice="string" generates a literal string separator dbtimestamp Inserts a date timestamp dbtimestamp format="formatstring" [padding="0"|"1"] Description Use the dbtimestamp PI at any point in a source document to cause a date timestamp (a formatted string representing the current date and time) to be inserted in output of the document. Parameters format="formatstring" Specifies format in which the date and time are output For details of the content of the format string, see Date and time. padding="0"|"1" Specifies padding behavior; if non-zero, padding is is added dbtex_delims Generates delimiters around embedded TeX equations in output dbtex delims="no"|"yes" Description Use the dbtex delims PI as a child of a textobject containing embedded TeX markup, to cause that markup to be surrounded by $ delimiter characters in output. This feature is useful for print/PDF output only if you use the obsolete and now unsupported PassiveTeX XSL-FO engine. Parameters dbtex delims="no"|"yes" Specifies whether delimiters are output Related Global Parameters tex.math.delims DocBook XSL Stylesheets Developer Reference This is technical reference documentation for developers using the DocBook XSL Stylesheets. It is not intended to be user documentation, but is instead provided for developers writing customization layers for the stylesheets. XSL Library Template Reference Introduction This is technical reference documentation for the vocabulary-independent “library” templates in the DocBook XSL Stylesheets. This is not intended to be user documentation. It is provided for developers writing customization layers for the stylesheets. General Library Templates dot.count Returns the number of . characters in a string Description Given a string, the dot.count template returns the number of dot/period characters in the string. This template is useful, for example, when testing the nesting level of nested inline markup (for nested emphasis, quotations, etc.). <xsl:template name="dot.count">  <xsl:param name="string"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="count" select="0"></xsl:param> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="contains($string, '.')"> <xsl:call-template name="dot.count"> <xsl:with-param name="string" select="substring-after($string, '.')"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="count" select="$count+1"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="$count"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> copy-string Returns count copies of a string Description Given a string, the copy-string template creates n copies of the string, when the value of n is given by the count parameter. <xsl:template name="copy-string">  <xsl:param name="string"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="count" select="0"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="result"></xsl:param> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$count>0"> <xsl:call-template name="copy-string"> <xsl:with-param name="string" select="$string"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="count" select="$count - 1"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="result"> <xsl:value-of select="$result"></xsl:value-of> <xsl:value-of select="$string"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="$result"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> string.subst Substitute one text string for another in a string Description The string.subst template replaces all occurances of target in string with replacement and returns the result. <xsl:template name="string.subst"> <xsl:param name="string"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="target"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="replacement"></xsl:param> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="contains($string, $target)"> <xsl:variable name="rest"> <xsl:call-template name="string.subst"> <xsl:with-param name="string" select="substring-after($string, $target)"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="target" select="$target"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="replacement" select="$replacement"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:variable> <xsl:value-of select="concat(substring-before($string, $target), $replacement, $rest)"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="$string"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> xpointer.idref Extract IDREF from an XPointer Description The xpointer.idref template returns the ID portion of an XPointer which is a pointer to an ID within the current document, or the empty string if it is not. In other words, xpointer.idref returns foo when passed either #foo or #xpointer(id('foo')), otherwise it returns the empty string. <xsl:template name="xpointer.idref"> <xsl:param name="xpointer">http://...</xsl:param> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="starts-with($xpointer, '#xpointer(id(')"> <xsl:variable name="rest" select="substring-after($xpointer, '#xpointer(id(')"></xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="quote" select="substring($rest, 1, 1)"></xsl:variable> <xsl:value-of select="substring-before(substring-after($xpointer, $quote), $quote)"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="starts-with($xpointer, '#')"> <xsl:value-of select="substring-after($xpointer, '#')"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when>  </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> length-magnitude Return the unqualified dimension from a length specification Description The length-magnitude template returns the unqualified length ("20" for "20pt") from a dimension. <xsl:template name="length-magnitude"> <xsl:param name="length" select="'0pt'"></xsl:param> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="string-length($length) = 0"></xsl:when> <xsl:when test="substring($length,1,1) = '0' or substring($length,1,1) = '1' or substring($length,1,1) = '2' or substring($length,1,1) = '3' or substring($length,1,1) = '4' or substring($length,1,1) = '5' or substring($length,1,1) = '6' or substring($length,1,1) = '7' or substring($length,1,1) = '8' or substring($length,1,1) = '9' or substring($length,1,1) = '.'"> <xsl:value-of select="substring($length,1,1)"></xsl:value-of> <xsl:call-template name="length-magnitude"> <xsl:with-param name="length" select="substring($length,2)"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> length-units Return the units from a length specification Description The length-units template returns the units ("pt" for "20pt") from a length. If no units are supplied on the length, the defauilt.units are returned. <xsl:template name="length-units"> <xsl:param name="length" select="'0pt'"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="default.units" select="'px'"></xsl:param> <xsl:variable name="magnitude"> <xsl:call-template name="length-magnitude"> <xsl:with-param name="length" select="$length"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="units"> <xsl:value-of select="substring($length, string-length($magnitude)+1)"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:variable> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$units = ''"> <xsl:value-of select="$default.units"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="$units"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> length-spec Return a fully qualified length specification Description The length-spec template returns the qualified length from a dimension. If an unqualified length is given, the default.units will be added to it. <xsl:template name="length-spec"> <xsl:param name="length" select="'0pt'"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="default.units" select="'px'"></xsl:param> <xsl:variable name="magnitude"> <xsl:call-template name="length-magnitude"> <xsl:with-param name="length" select="$length"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="units"> <xsl:value-of select="substring($length, string-length($magnitude)+1)"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:variable> <xsl:value-of select="$magnitude"></xsl:value-of> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$units='cm' or $units='mm' or $units='in' or $units='pt' or $units='pc' or $units='px' or $units='em'"> <xsl:value-of select="$units"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$units = ''"> <xsl:value-of select="$default.units"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:message> <xsl:text>Unrecognized unit of measure: </xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="$units"></xsl:value-of> <xsl:text>.</xsl:text> </xsl:message> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> length-in-points Returns the size, in points, of a specified length Description The length-in-points template converts a length specification to points and returns that value as an unqualified number. There is no way for the template to infer the size of an em. It relies on the default em.size which is initially 10 (for 10pt). Similarly, converting pixels to points relies on the pixels.per.inch parameter which is initially 90. <xsl:template name="length-in-points"> <xsl:param name="length" select="'0pt'"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="em.size" select="10"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="pixels.per.inch" select="90"></xsl:param> <xsl:variable name="magnitude"> <xsl:call-template name="length-magnitude"> <xsl:with-param name="length" select="$length"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="units"> <xsl:value-of select="substring($length, string-length($magnitude)+1)"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:variable> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$units = 'pt'"> <xsl:value-of select="$magnitude"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$units = 'cm'"> <xsl:value-of select="$magnitude div 2.54 * 72.0"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$units = 'mm'"> <xsl:value-of select="$magnitude div 25.4 * 72.0"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$units = 'in'"> <xsl:value-of select="$magnitude * 72.0"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$units = 'pc'"> <xsl:value-of select="$magnitude * 12.0"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$units = 'px'"> <xsl:value-of select="$magnitude div $pixels.per.inch * 72.0"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$units = 'em'"> <xsl:value-of select="$magnitude * $em.size"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:message> <xsl:text>Unrecognized unit of measure: </xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="$units"></xsl:value-of> <xsl:text>.</xsl:text> </xsl:message> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> pi-attribute Extract a pseudo-attribute from a PI Description The pi-attribute template extracts a pseudo-attribute from a processing instruction. For example, given the PI <?foo bar="1" baz='red'?>, <xsl:call-template name="pi-attribute"> <xsl:with-param name="pis" select="processing-instruction('foo')"/> <xsl:with-param name="attribute" select="'baz'"/> </xsl:call-template> will return red. This template returns the first matching attribute that it finds. Presented with processing instructions that contain badly formed pseudo-attributes (missing or unbalanced quotes, for example), the template may silently return erroneous results. <xsl:template name="pi-attribute"> <xsl:param name="pis" select="processing-instruction('BOGUS_PI')"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="attribute">filename</xsl:param> <xsl:param name="count">1</xsl:param> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$count>count($pis)">  </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:variable name="pi"> <xsl:value-of select="$pis[$count]"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="pivalue"> <xsl:value-of select="concat(' ', normalize-space($pi))"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:variable> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="contains($pivalue,concat(' ', $attribute, '='))"> <xsl:variable name="rest" select="substring-after($pivalue,concat(' ', $attribute,'='))"></xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="quote" select="substring($rest,1,1)"></xsl:variable> <xsl:value-of select="substring-before(substring($rest,2),$quote)"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:call-template name="pi-attribute"> <xsl:with-param name="pis" select="$pis"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="attribute" select="$attribute"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="count" select="$count + 1"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> lookup.key Retrieve the value associated with a particular key in a table Description Given a table of space-delimited key/value pairs, the lookup.key template extracts the value associated with a particular key. <xsl:template name="lookup.key"> <xsl:param name="key" select="''"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="table" select="''"></xsl:param> <xsl:if test="contains($table, ' ')"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="substring-before($table, ' ') = $key"> <xsl:variable name="rest" select="substring-after($table, ' ')"></xsl:variable> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="contains($rest, ' ')"> <xsl:value-of select="substring-before($rest, ' ')"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="$rest"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:call-template name="lookup.key"> <xsl:with-param name="key" select="$key"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="table" select="substring-after(substring-after($table,' '), ' ')"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> xpath.location Calculate the XPath child-sequence to the current node Description The xpath.location template calculates the absolute path from the root of the tree to the current element node. <xsl:template name="xpath.location"> <xsl:param name="node" select="."></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="path" select="''"></xsl:param> <xsl:variable name="next.path"> <xsl:value-of select="local-name($node)"></xsl:value-of> <xsl:if test="$path != ''">/</xsl:if> <xsl:value-of select="$path"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:variable> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$node/parent::*"> <xsl:call-template name="xpath.location"> <xsl:with-param name="node" select="$node/parent::*"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="path" select="$next.path"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:text>/</xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="$next.path"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> comment-escape-string Prepare a string for inclusion in an XML comment Description The comment-escape-string template returns a string that has been transformed so that it can safely be output as an XML comment. Internal occurrences of "--" will be replaced with "- -" and a leading and/or trailing space will be added to the string, if necessary. <xsl:template name="comment-escape-string"> <xsl:param name="string" select="''"></xsl:param> <xsl:if test="starts-with($string, '-')"> <xsl:text> </xsl:text> </xsl:if> <xsl:call-template name="comment-escape-string.recursive"> <xsl:with-param name="string" select="$string"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> <xsl:if test="substring($string, string-length($string), 1) = '-'"> <xsl:text> </xsl:text> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> comment-escape-string.recursive Internal function used by comment-escape-string Description The comment-escape-string.recursive template is used by comment-escape-string. <xsl:template name="comment-escape-string.recursive"> <xsl:param name="string" select="''"></xsl:param> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="contains($string, '--')"> <xsl:value-of select="substring-before($string, '--')"></xsl:value-of> <xsl:value-of select="'- -'"></xsl:value-of> <xsl:call-template name="comment-escape-string.recursive"> <xsl:with-param name="string" select="substring-after($string, '--')"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="$string"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> trim.text Trim leading and trailing whitespace from a text node Description Given a text node, this function trims leading and trailing whitespace from it and returns the trimmed contents. <xsl:template name="trim.text"> <xsl:param name="contents" select="."></xsl:param> <xsl:variable name="contents-left-trimmed"> <xsl:call-template name="trim-left"> <xsl:with-param name="contents" select="$contents"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="contents-trimmed"> <xsl:call-template name="trim-right"> <xsl:with-param name="contents" select="$contents-left-trimmed"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:variable> <xsl:value-of select="$contents-trimmed"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name="trim-left"> <xsl:param name="contents"></xsl:param> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="starts-with($contents,' ') or starts-with($contents,' ') or starts-with($contents,' ') or starts-with($contents,' ')"> <xsl:call-template name="trim-left"> <xsl:with-param name="contents" select="substring($contents, 2)"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="$contents"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name="trim-right"> <xsl:param name="contents"></xsl:param> <xsl:variable name="last-char"> <xsl:value-of select="substring($contents, string-length($contents), 1)"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:variable> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="($last-char = ' ') or ($last-char = ' ') or ($last-char = ' ') or ($last-char = ' ')"> <xsl:call-template name="trim-right"> <xsl:with-param name="contents" select="substring($contents, 1, string-length($contents) - 1)"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="$contents"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> str.tokenize.keep.delimiters Tokenize a string while preserving any delimiters Description Based on the occurrence of one or more delimiter characters, this function breaks a string into a list of tokens and delimiters, marking up each of the tokens with a token element and preserving the delimiters as text nodes between the tokens. This function is a very slightly modified version of a function from the EXSLT site. The original is available at:

The str.tokenize.keep.delimiters function differs only in that it preserves the delimiters instead of discarding them. <xsl:template name="str.tokenize.keep.delimiters"> <xsl:param name="string" select="''"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="delimiters" select="' '"></xsl:param> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="not($string)"></xsl:when> <xsl:when test="not($delimiters)"> <xsl:call-template name="str.tokenize.keep.delimiters-characters"> <xsl:with-param name="string" select="$string"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:call-template name="str.tokenize.keep.delimiters-delimiters"> <xsl:with-param name="string" select="$string"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="delimiters" select="$delimiters"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name="str.tokenize.keep.delimiters-characters"> <xsl:param name="string"></xsl:param> <xsl:if test="$string"> <ssb:token><xsl:value-of select="substring($string, 1, 1)"></xsl:value-of></ssb:token> <xsl:call-template name="str.tokenize.keep.delimiters-characters"> <xsl:with-param name="string" select="substring($string, 2)"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name="str.tokenize.keep.delimiters-delimiters"> <xsl:param name="string"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="delimiters"></xsl:param> <xsl:variable name="delimiter" select="substring($delimiters, 1, 1)"></xsl:variable> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="not($delimiter)"> <ssb:token><xsl:value-of select="$string"></xsl:value-of></ssb:token> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="contains($string, $delimiter)"> <xsl:if test="not(starts-with($string, $delimiter))"> <xsl:call-template name="str.tokenize.keep.delimiters-delimiters"> <xsl:with-param name="string" select="substring-before($string, $delimiter)"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="delimiters" select="substring($delimiters, 2)"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:if>  <xsl:value-of select="$delimiter"></xsl:value-of> <xsl:call-template name="str.tokenize.keep.delimiters-delimiters"> <xsl:with-param name="string" select="substring-after($string, $delimiter)"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="delimiters" select="$delimiters"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:call-template name="str.tokenize.keep.delimiters-delimiters"> <xsl:with-param name="string" select="$string"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="delimiters" select="substring($delimiters, 2)"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> apply-string-subst-map Apply a string-substitution map Description This function applies a “string substitution” map. Use it when you want to do multiple string substitutions on the same target content. It reads in two things: content, the content on which to perform the substitution, and map.contents, a node set of elements (the names of the elements don't matter), with each element having the following attributes: oldstring, a string to be replaced newstring, a string with which to replace oldstring The function uses map.contents to do substitution on content, and then returns the modified contents. This function is a very slightly modified version of Jeni Tennison’s replace_strings function in the multiple string replacements section of Dave Pawson’s XSLT FAQ. The apply-string-subst-map function is essentially the same function as the apply-character-map function; the only difference is that in the map that apply-string-subst-map expects, oldstring and newstring attributes are used instead of character and string attributes. <xsl:template name="apply-string-subst-map"> <xsl:param name="content"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="map.contents"></xsl:param> <xsl:variable name="replaced_text"> <xsl:call-template name="string.subst"> <xsl:with-param name="string" select="$content"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="target" select="$map.contents[1]/@oldstring"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="replacement" select="$map.contents[1]/@newstring"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:variable> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$map.contents[2]"> <xsl:call-template name="apply-string-subst-map"> <xsl:with-param name="content" select="$replaced_text"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="map.contents" select="$map.contents[position() > 1]"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="$replaced_text"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> Relative URI Functions Introduction These functions manipulate relative URI references. The following assumptions must hold true: All URIs are relative. No URI contains the ../ sequence which would effectively move up the hierarchy. If these assumptions do not hold, the results are unpredictable. count.uri.path.depth Count the number of path components in a relative URI Description This function counts the number of path components in a relative URI. <xsl:template name="count.uri.path.depth"> <xsl:param name="filename" select="''"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="count" select="0"></xsl:param> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="contains($filename, '/')"> <xsl:call-template name="count.uri.path.depth"> <xsl:with-param name="filename" select="substring-after($filename, '/')"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="count" select="$count + 1"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="$count"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> trim.common.uri.paths Trim common leading path components from a relative URI Description This function trims common leading path components from a relative URI. <xsl:template name="trim.common.uri.paths"> <xsl:param name="uriA" select="''"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="uriB" select="''"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="return" select="'A'"></xsl:param> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="contains($uriA, '/') and contains($uriB, '/') and substring-before($uriA, '/') = substring-before($uriB, '/')"> <xsl:call-template name="trim.common.uri.paths"> <xsl:with-param name="uriA" select="substring-after($uriA, '/')"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="uriB" select="substring-after($uriB, '/')"></xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="return" select="$return"></xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$return = 'A'"> <xsl:value-of select="$uriA"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="$uriB"></xsl:value-of> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> Common Template Reference This is technical reference documentation for the “base”, “refentry”, and “utility” sets of common templates in the DocBook XSL Stylesheets. These templates are “common” in that they are shared across output formats (that is, they’re not output-format-dependent) This documentation is not intended to be user documentation. It is provided for developers writing customization layers for the stylesheets.

Returns This template returns '1' if the specified node is a section (Section, Sect1, Sect2, etc.), and '0' otherwise. section.level Returns the hierarchical level of a section <xsl:template name="section.level"> <xsl:param name="node" select="."/> ... </xsl:template> Description This template calculates the hierarchical level of a section. The element sect1 is at level 1, sect2 is at level 2, etc. Recursive sections are calculated down to the fifth level. Parameters node The section node for which the level should be calculated. Defaults to the context node. Returns The section level, 1, 2, etc. qanda.section.level Returns the hierarchical level of a QandASet <xsl:template name="qanda.section.level"/> Description This template calculates the hierarchical level of a QandASet. Returns The level, 1, 2, etc. select.mediaobject Selects and processes an appropriate media object from a list <xsl:template name="select.mediaobject"> <xsl:param name="olist" select="imageobject|imageobjectco |videoobject|audioobject|textobject"/> ... </xsl:template> Description This template takes a list of media objects (usually the children of a mediaobject or inlinemediaobject) and processes the "right" object. This template relies on a template named "select.mediaobject.index" to determine which object in the list is appropriate. If no acceptable object is located, nothing happens. Parameters olist The node list of potential objects to examine. Returns Calls <xsl:apply-templates> on the selected object. select.mediaobject.index Selects the position of the appropriate media object from a list <xsl:template name="select.mediaobject.index"> <xsl:param name="olist" select="imageobject|imageobjectco |videoobject|audioobject|textobject"/> <xsl:param name="count">1</xsl:param> ... </xsl:template> Description This template takes a list of media objects (usually the children of a mediaobject or inlinemediaobject) and determines the "right" object. It returns the position of that object to be used by the calling template. If the parameter use.role.for.mediaobject is nonzero, then it first checks for an object with a role attribute of the appropriate value. It takes the first of those. Otherwise, it takes the first acceptable object through a recursive pass through the list. This template relies on a template named "is.acceptable.mediaobject" to determine if a given object is an acceptable graphic. The semantics of media objects is that the first acceptable graphic should be used. If no acceptable object is located, no index is returned. Parameters olist The node list of potential objects to examine. count The position in the list currently being considered by the recursive process. Returns Returns the position in the original list of the selected object. is.acceptable.mediaobject Returns '1' if the specified media object is recognized <xsl:template name="is.acceptable.mediaobject"> <xsl:param name="object"/> ... </xsl:template> Description This template examines a media object and returns '1' if the object is recognized as a graphic. Parameters object The media object to consider. Returns 0 or 1 check.id.unique Warn users about references to non-unique IDs <xsl:template name="check.id.unique"> <xsl:param name="linkend"/> ... </xsl:template> Description If passed an ID in linkend, check.id.unique prints a warning message to the user if either the ID does not exist or the ID is not unique. check.idref.targets Warn users about incorrectly typed references <xsl:template name="check.idref.targets"> <xsl:param name="linkend"/> <xsl:param name="element-list"/> ... </xsl:template> Description If passed an ID in linkend, check.idref.targets makes sure that the element pointed to by the link is one of the elements listed in element-list and warns the user otherwise. copyright.years Print a set of years with collapsed ranges <xsl:template name="copyright.years"> <xsl:param name="years"/> <xsl:param name="print.ranges" select="1"/> <xsl:param name="single.year.ranges" select="0"/> <xsl:param name="firstyear" select="0"/> <xsl:param name="nextyear" select="0"/> ... </xsl:template> Description This template prints a list of year elements with consecutive years printed as a range. In other words: <year>1992</year> <year>1993</year> <year>1994</year> is printed 1992-1994, whereas: <year>1992</year> <year>1994</year> is printed 1992, 1994. This template assumes that all the year elements contain only decimal year numbers, that the elements are sorted in increasing numerical order, that there are no duplicates, and that all the years are expressed in full century+year (1999 not 99) notation. Parameters years The initial set of year elements. print.ranges If non-zero, multi-year ranges are collapsed. If zero, all years are printed discretely. single.year.ranges If non-zero, two consecutive years will be printed as a range, otherwise, they will be printed discretely. In other words, a single year range is 1991-1992 but discretely it's 1991, 1992. Returns This template returns the formatted list of years. find.path.params Search in a table for the "best" match for the node <xsl:template name="find.path.params"> <xsl:param name="node" select="."/> <xsl:param name="table" select="''"/> <xsl:param name="location"> <xsl:call-template name="xpath.location"> <xsl:with-param name="node" select="$node"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:param> ... </xsl:template> Description This template searches in a table for the value that most-closely (in the typical best-match sense of XSLT) matches the current (element) node location. string.upper Converts a string to all uppercase letters <xsl:template name="string.upper"> <xsl:param name="string" select="''"/> ... </xsl:template> Description Given a string, this template does a language-aware conversion of that string to all uppercase letters, based on the values of the lowercase.alpha and uppercase.alpha gentext keys for the current locale. It affects only those characters found in the values of lowercase.alpha and uppercase.alpha. All other characters are left unchanged. Parameters string The string to convert to uppercase. string.lower Converts a string to all lowercase letters <xsl:template name="string.lower"> <xsl:param name="string" select="''"/> ... </xsl:template> Description Given a string, this template does a language-aware conversion of that string to all lowercase letters, based on the values of the uppercase.alpha and lowercase.alpha gentext keys for the current locale. It affects only those characters found in the values of uppercase.alpha and lowercase.alpha. All other characters are left unchanged. Parameters string The string to convert to lowercase. select.choice.separator Returns localized choice separator <xsl:template name="select.choice.separator"/> Description This template enables auto-generation of an appropriate localized "choice" separator (for example, "and" or "or") before the final item in an inline list (though it could also be useful for generating choice separators for non-inline lists). It currently works by evaluating a processing instruction (PI) of the form <?dbchoice choice="foo"?> : if the value of the choice pseudo-attribute is "and" or "or", returns a localized "and" or "or" otherwise returns the literal value of the choice pseudo-attribute The latter is provided only as a temporary workaround because the locale files do not currently have translations for the word or. So if you want to generate a a logical "or" separator in French (for example), you currently need to do this: <?dbchoice choice="ou"?> The dbchoice processing instruction is an unfortunate hack; support for it may disappear in the future (particularly if and when a more appropriate means for marking up "choice" lists becomes available in DocBook). evaluate.info.profile Evaluates an info profile <xsl:template name="evaluate.info.profile"> <xsl:param name="profile"/> <xsl:param name="info"/> ... </xsl:template> Description This template evaluates an "info profile" matching the XPath expression given by the profile parameter. It relies on the XSLT evaluate() extension function. The value of the profile parameter can include the literal string $info. If found in the value of the profile parameter, the literal string $info string is replaced with the value of the info parameter, which should be a set of *info nodes; the expression is then evaluated using the XSLT evaluate() extension function. Parameters profile A string representing an XPath expression info A set of *info nodes Returns Returns a node (the result of evaluating the profile parameter) Common » Refentry Metadata Template Reference $Id: refentry.xsl 7867 2008-03-07 09:54:25Z xmldoc $ Introduction This is technical reference documentation for the “refentry metadata” templates in the DocBook XSL Stylesheets. This is not intended to be user documentation. It is provided for developers writing customization layers for the stylesheets. Currently, only the manpages stylesheets make use of these templates. They are, however, potentially useful elsewhere. get.refentry.metadata Gathers metadata from a refentry and its ancestors <xsl:template name="get.refentry.metadata"> <xsl:param name="refname"/> <xsl:param name="info"/> <xsl:param name="prefs"/> ... </xsl:template> Description Reference documentation for particular commands, functions, etc., is sometimes viewed in isolation from its greater "context". For example, users view Unix man pages as, well, individual pages, not as part of a "book" of some kind. Therefore, it is sometimes necessary to embed "context" information in output for each refentry. However, one problem is that different users mark up that context information in different ways. Often (usually), the context information is not actually part of the content of the refentry itself, but instead part of the content of a parent or ancestor element to the refentry. And even then, DocBook provides a variety of elements that users might potentially use to mark up the same kind of information. One user might use the productnumber element to mark up version information about a particular product, while another might use the releaseinfo element. Taking all that in mind, the get.refentry.metadata template tries to gather metadata from a refentry element and its ancestor elements in an intelligent and user-configurable way. The basic mechanism used in the XPath expressions throughout this stylesheet is to select the relevant metadata from the *info element that is closest to the actual refentry – either on the refentry itself, or on its nearest ancestor. The get.refentry.metadata template is actually just sort of a "driver" template; it calls other templates that do the actual data collection, then returns the data as a set. Parameters refname The first refname in the refentry info A set of info nodes (from a refentry element and its ancestors) prefs A node containing user preferences (from global stylesheet parameters) Returns Returns a node set with the following elements. The descriptions are verbatim from the man(7) man page. title the title of the man page (e.g., MAN) section the section number the man page should be placed in (e.g., 7) date the date of the last revision source the source of the command manual the title of the manual (e.g., Linux Programmer's Manual) get.refentry.title Gets title metadata for a refentry <xsl:template name="get.refentry.title"> <xsl:param name="refname"/> ... </xsl:template> Description The man(7) man page describes this as "the title of the man page (e.g., MAN). This differs from refname in that, if the refentry has a refentrytitle, we use that as the title; otherwise, we just use first refname in the first refnamediv in the source. Parameters refname The first refname in the refentry Returns Returns a title node. get.refentry.section Gets section metadata for a refentry <xsl:template name="get.refentry.section"> <xsl:param name="refname"/> <xsl:param name="quiet" select="0"/> ... </xsl:template> Description The man(7) man page describes this as "the section number the man page should be placed in (e.g., 7)". If we do not find a manvolnum specified in the source, and we find that the refentry is for a function, we use the section number 3 ["Library calls (functions within program libraries)"]; otherwise, we default to using 1 ["Executable programs or shell commands"]. Parameters refname The first refname in the refentry quiet If non-zero, no "missing" message is emitted Returns Returns a string representing a section number. get.refentry.date Gets date metadata for a refentry <xsl:template name="get.refentry.date"> <xsl:param name="refname"/> <xsl:param name="info"/> <xsl:param name="prefs"/> ... </xsl:template> Description The man(7) man page describes this as "the date of the last revision". If we cannot find a date in the source, we generate one. Parameters refname The first refname in the refentry info A set of info nodes (from a refentry element and its ancestors) prefs A node containing users preferences (from global stylesheet parameters) Returns Returns a date node. get.refentry.source Gets source metadata for a refentry <xsl:template name="get.refentry.source"> <xsl:param name="refname"/> <xsl:param name="info"/> <xsl:param name="prefs"/> ... </xsl:template> Description The man(7) man page describes this as "the source of the command", and provides the following examples: For binaries, use something like: GNU, NET-2, SLS Distribution, MCC Distribution. For system calls, use the version of the kernel that you are currently looking at: Linux 0.99.11. For library calls, use the source of the function: GNU, BSD 4.3, Linux DLL 4.4.1. The solbook(5) man page describes something very much like what man(7) calls "source", except that solbook(5) names it "software" and describes it like this:

This is the name of the software product that the topic discussed on the reference page belongs to. For example UNIX commands are part of the SunOS x.x release.

In practice, there are many pages that simply have a version number in the "source" field. So, it looks like what we have is a two-part field, Name Version, where: Name product name (e.g., BSD) or org. name (e.g., GNU) Version version name Each part is optional. If the Name is a product name, then the Version is probably the version of the product. Or there may be no Name, in which case, if there is a Version, it is probably the version of the item itself, not the product it is part of. Or, if the Name is an organization name, then there probably will be no Version. Parameters refname The first refname in the refentry info A set of info nodes (from a refentry element and its ancestors) prefs A node containing users preferences (from global stylesheet parameters) Returns Returns a source node. get.refentry.source.name Gets source-name metadata for a refentry <xsl:template name="get.refentry.source.name"> <xsl:param name="refname"/> <xsl:param name="info"/> <xsl:param name="prefs"/> ... </xsl:template> Description A "source name" is one part of a (potentially) two-part Name Version source field. For more details, see the documentation for the get.refentry.source template. Parameters refname The first refname in the refentry info A set of info nodes (from a refentry element and its ancestors) prefs A node containing users preferences (from global stylesheet parameters) Returns Depending on what output method is used for the current stylesheet, either returns a text node or possibly an element node, containing "source name" data. get.refentry.version Gets version metadata for a refentry <xsl:template name="get.refentry.version"> <xsl:param name="refname"/> <xsl:param name="info"/> <xsl:param name="prefs"/> ... </xsl:template> Description A "version" is one part of a (potentially) two-part Name Version source field. For more details, see the documentation for the get.refentry.source template. Parameters refname The first refname in the refentry info A set of info nodes (from a refentry element and its ancestors) prefs A node containing users preferences (from global stylesheet parameters) Returns Depending on what output method is used for the current stylesheet, either returns a text node or possibly an element node, containing "version" data. get.refentry.manual Gets source metadata for a refentry <xsl:template name="get.refentry.manual"> <xsl:param name="refname"/> <xsl:param name="info"/> <xsl:param name="prefs"/> ... </xsl:template> Description The man(7) man page describes this as "the title of the manual (e.g., Linux Programmer's Manual)". Here are some examples from existing man pages: dpkg utilities (dpkg-name) User Contributed Perl Documentation (GET) GNU Development Tools (ld) Emperor Norton Utilities (ddate) Debian GNU/Linux manual (faked) GIMP Manual Pages (gimp) KDOC Documentation System (qt2kdoc) The solbook(5) man page describes something very much like what man(7) calls "manual", except that solbook(5) names it "sectdesc" and describes it like this:

This is the section title of the reference page; for example User Commands.

Parameters refname The first refname in the refentry info A set of info nodes (from a refentry element and its ancestors) prefs A node containing users preferences (from global stylesheet parameters) Returns Returns a manual node. get.refentry.metadata.prefs Gets user preferences for refentry metadata gathering <xsl:template name="get.refentry.metadata.prefs"/> Description The DocBook XSL stylesheets include several user-configurable global stylesheet parameters for controlling refentry metadata gathering. Those parameters are not read directly by the other refentry metadata-gathering templates. Instead, they are read only by the get.refentry.metadata.prefs template, which assembles them into a structure that is then passed to the other refentry metadata-gathering templates. So the, get.refentry.metadata.prefs template is the only interface to collecting stylesheet parameters for controlling refentry metadata gathering. Parameters There are no local parameters for this template; however, it does rely on a number of global parameters. Returns Returns a manual node. set.refentry.metadata Sets content of a refentry metadata item <xsl:template name="set.refentry.metadata"> <xsl:param name="refname"/> <xsl:param name="info"/> <xsl:param name="contents"/> <xsl:param name="context"/> <xsl:param name="preferred"/> ... </xsl:template> Description The set.refentry.metadata template is called each time a suitable source element is found for a certain metadata field. Parameters refname The first refname in the refentry info A single *info node that contains the selected source element. contents A node containing the selected source element. context A string describing the metadata context in which the set.refentry.metadata template was called: either "date", "source", "version", or "manual". Returns Returns formatted contents of a selected source element. Common » Utility Template Reference $Id: utility.xsl 7101 2007-07-20 15:32:12Z xmldoc $ Introduction This is technical reference documentation for the miscellaneous utility templates in the DocBook XSL Stylesheets. These templates are defined in a separate file from the set of “common” templates because some of the common templates reference DocBook XSL stylesheet parameters, requiring the entire set of parameters to be imported/included in any stylesheet that imports/includes the common templates. The utility templates don’t import or include any DocBook XSL stylesheet parameters, so the utility templates can be used without importing the whole set of parameters. This is not intended to be user documentation. It is provided for developers writing customization layers for the stylesheets. log.message Logs/emits formatted notes and warnings <xsl:template name="log.message"> <xsl:param name="level"/> <xsl:param name="source"/> <xsl:param name="context-desc"/> <xsl:param name="context-desc-field-length">12</xsl:param> <xsl:param name="context-desc-padded"> <xsl:if test="not($context-desc = '')"> <xsl:call-template name="pad-string"> <xsl:with-param name="leftRight">right</xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="padVar" select="substring($context-desc, 1, $context-desc-field-length)"/> <xsl:with-param name="length" select="$context-desc-field-length"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:if> </xsl:param> <xsl:param name="message"/> <xsl:param name="message-field-length" select="45"/> <xsl:param name="message-padded"> <xsl:variable name="spaces-for-blank-level">   <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$level = ''"> <xsl:value-of select="4 + 2"/>   </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="0"/> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="spaces-for-blank-context-desc">   <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$context-desc = ''"> <xsl:value-of select="$context-desc-field-length + 2"/>  </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="0"/> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="extra-spaces" select="$spaces-for-blank-level + $spaces-for-blank-context-desc"/> <xsl:call-template name="pad-string"> <xsl:with-param name="leftRight">right</xsl:with-param> <xsl:with-param name="padVar" select="substring($message, 1, ($message-field-length + $extra-spaces))"/> <xsl:with-param name="length" select="$message-field-length + $extra-spaces"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:param> ... </xsl:template> Description The log.message template is a utility template for logging/emitting formatted messages – that is, notes and warnings, along with a given log “level” and an identifier for the “source” that the message relates to. Parameters level Text to log/emit in the message-level field to indicate the message level (Note or Warning) source Text to log/emit in the source field to identify the “source” to which the notification/warning relates. This can be any arbitrary string, but because the message lacks line and column numbers to identify the exact part of the source document to which it relates, the intention is that the value you pass into the source parameter should give the user some way to identify the portion of their source document on which to take potentially take action in response to the log message (for example, to edit, change, or add content). So the source value should be, for example, an ID, book/chapter/article title, title of some formal object, or even a string giving an XPath expression. context-desc Text to log/emit in the context-description field to describe the context for the message. context-desc-field-length Specifies length of the context-description field (in characters); default is 12 If the text specified by the context-desc parameter is longer than the number of characters specified in context-desc-field-length, it is truncated to context-desc-field-length (12 characters by default). If the specified text is shorter than context-desc-field-length, it is right-padded out to context-desc-field-length (12 by default). If no value has been specified for the context-desc parameter, the field is left empty and the text of the log message begins with the value of the message parameter. message Text to log/emit in the actual message field message-field-length Specifies length of the message field (in characters); default is 45 Returns Outputs a message (generally, to standard error). get.doc.title Gets a title from the current document <xsl:template name="get.doc.title"/> Description The get.doc.title template is a utility template for returning the first title found in the current document. Returns Returns a string containing some identifying title for the current document . pad-string Right-pads or left-pads a string out to a certain length <xsl:template name="pad-string"> <xsl:param name="padChar" select="' '"/> <xsl:param name="leftRight">left</xsl:param> <xsl:param name="padVar"/> <xsl:param name="length"/> ... </xsl:template> Description This function takes string padVar and pads it out in the direction rightLeft to the string-length length, using string padChar (a space character by default) as the padding string (note that padChar can be a string; it is not limited to just being a single character). This function began as a copy of Nate Austin's prepend-pad function in the Padding Content section of Dave Pawson's XSLT FAQ. Returns Returns a (padded) string. Common » Character-Map Template Reference $Id: charmap.xsl 7266 2007-08-22 11:58:42Z xmldoc $ Introduction This is technical reference documentation for the character-map templates in the DocBook XSL Stylesheets. These templates are defined in a separate file from the set of “common” templates because some of the common templates reference DocBook XSL stylesheet parameters, requiring the entire set of parameters to be imported/included in any stylesheet that imports/includes the common templates. The character-map templates don’t import or include any DocBook XSL stylesheet parameters, so the character-map templates can be used without importing the whole set of parameters. This is not intended to be user documentation. It is provided for developers writing customization layers for the stylesheets. apply-character-map Applies an XSLT character map <xsl:template name="apply-character-map"> <xsl:param name="content"/> <xsl:param name="map.contents"/> ... </xsl:template> Description This template applies an XSLT character map; that is, it causes certain individual characters to be substituted with strings of one or more characters. It is useful mainly for replacing multiple “special” characters or symbols in the same target content. It uses the value of map.contents to do substitution on content, and then returns the modified contents. This template is a very slightly modified version of Jeni Tennison’s replace_strings template in the multiple string replacements section of Dave Pawson’s XSLT FAQ. The apply-string-subst-map template is essentially the same template as the apply-character-map template; the only difference is that in the map that apply-string-subst-map expects, oldstring and newstring attributes are used instead of character and string attributes. Parameters content The content on which to perform the character-map substitution. map.contents A node set of elements, with each element having the following attributes: character, a character to be replaced string, a string with which to replace character read-character-map Reads in all or part of an XSLT character map <xsl:template name="read-character-map"> <xsl:param name="use.subset"/> <xsl:param name="subset.profile"/> <xsl:param name="uri"/> ... </xsl:template> Description The XSLT 2.0 specification describes character maps and explains how they may be used to allow a specific character appearing in a text or attribute node in a final result tree to be substituted by a specified string of characters during serialization. The read-character-map template provides a means for reading and using character maps with XSLT 1.0-based tools. This template reads the character-map contents from uri (in full or in part, depending on the value of the use.subset parameter), then passes those contents to the apply-character-map template, along with content, the data on which to perform the character substitution. Using the character map “in part” means that it uses only those output-character elements that match the XPath expression given in the value of the subset.profile parameter. The current implementation of that capability here relies on the evaluate extension XSLT function. Parameters use.subset Specifies whether to use a subset of the character map instead of the whole map; boolean 0 or 1 subset.profile XPath expression that specifies what subset of the character map to use uri URI for a character map Formatting Object Table Reference $Id: table.xsl 8814 2010-08-09 21:19:53Z bobstayton $ Introduction This is technical reference documentation for the FO table-processing templates in the DocBook XSL Stylesheets. This is not intended to be user documentation. It is provided for developers writing customization layers for the stylesheets. calc.column.width Calculate an XSL FO table column width specification from a CALS table column width specification. <xsl:template name="calc.column.width"> <xsl:param name="colwidth">1*</xsl:param> ... </xsl:template> Description CALS expresses table column widths in the following basic forms: 99.99units, a fixed length specifier. 99.99, a fixed length specifier without any units. 99.99*, a relative length specifier. 99.99*+99.99units, a combination of both. The CALS units are points (pt), picas (pi), centimeters (cm), millimeters (mm), and inches (in). These are the same units as XSL, except that XSL abbreviates picas "pc" instead of "pi". If a length specifier has no units, the CALS default unit (pt) is assumed. Relative length specifiers are represented in XSL with the proportional-column-width() function. Here are some examples: "36pt" becomes "36pt" "3pi" becomes "3pc" "36" becomes "36pt" "3*" becomes "proportional-column-width(3)" "3*+2pi" becomes "proportional-column-width(3)+2pc" "1*+2" becomes "proportional-column-width(1)+2pt" Parameters colwidth The CALS column width specification. Returns The XSL column width specification. Titlepage Template Stylesheet Reference $Id: titlepage.xsl 7058 2007-07-17 13:59:29Z xmldoc $ Introduction This is technical reference documentation for the “titlepage” templates in the DocBook XSL Stylesheets. This is not intended to be user documentation. It is provided for developers writing customization layers for the stylesheets. t:templates Construct a stylesheet for the templates provided <xsl:template match="t:templates"/> Description The t:templates element is the root of a set of templates. This template creates an appropriate xsl:stylesheet for the templates. If the t:templates element has a base-stylesheet attribute, an xsl:import statement is constructed for it. xsl:* Copy xsl: elements straight through <xsl:template match="xsl:*"/> Description This template simply copies the xsl: elements straight through into the result tree. t:titlepage Create the templates necessary to construct a title page <xsl:template match="t:titlepage"/> Description The t:titlepage element creates a set of templates for processing the titlepage for an element. The root of this template set is the template named wrapper.titlepage. That is the template that should be called to generate the title page. The t:titlepage element has three attributes: element The name of the source document element for which these templates apply. In other words, to make a title page for the article element, set the element attribute to article. This attribute is required. wrapper The entire title page can be wrapped with an element. This attribute identifies that element. class If the class attribute is set, a class attribute with this value will be added to the wrapper element that surrounds the entire title page. Any other attributes are copied through literally to the wrapper element. The content of a t:titlepage is one or more t:titlepage-content, t:titlepage-separator, and t:titlepage-before elements. Each of these elements may be provided for the recto and verso sides of the title page. @* (in copy.literal.atts mode) Copy t:titlepage attributes <xsl:template match="@*" mode="copy.literal.atts"/> Description This template copies all of the other attributes from a t:titlepage element onto the specified wrapper. t:titlepage-content Create templates for the content of one side of a title page <xsl:template match="t:titlepage-content"/> Description The title page content, that is, the elements from the source document that are rendered on the title page, can be controlled independently for the recto and verso sides of the title page. The t:titlepage-content element has two attributes: side Identifies the side of the page to which this title page content applies. The side attribute is required and must be set to either recto or verso. In addition, you must specify exactly one t:titlepage-content for each side within each t:titlepage. order Indicates how the order of the elements presented on the title page is determined. If the order is document, the elements are presented in document order. Otherwise (if the order is stylesheet), the elements are presented in the order that they appear in the template (and consequently in the stylesheet). The content of a t:titlepage-content element is a list of element names. These names should be unqualified. They identify the elements in the source document that should appear on the title page. Each element may have a single attribute: predicate. The value of this attribute is used as a predicate for the expression that matches the element on which it occurs. In other words, to put only the first three authors on the recto-side of a title page, you could specify: <t:titlepage-contents side="recto">  <author predicate="[count(previous-sibling::author)<2]"/>  </t:titlepage-contents> Usually, the elements so named are empty. But it is possible to make one level of selection within them. Suppose that you want to process authorgroup elements on the title page, but you want to select only proper authors, editors, or corporate authors, not collaborators or other credited authors. In that case, you can put a t:or group inside the authorgroup element: <t:titlepage-contents side="recto">  <authorgroup> <t:or> <author/> <editor/> <corpauthor/> </t:or> </authorgroup>  </t:titlepage-contents> This will have the effect of automatically generating a template for processing authorgroups in the title page mode, selecting only the specified children. If you need more complex processing, you'll have to construct the templates by hand. t:titlepage-separator Create templates for the separator <xsl:template match="t:titlepage-separator"/> Description The title page is separated from the content which follows it by the markup specified in the t:titlepage-separator element. t:titlepage-before Create templates for what precedes a title page <xsl:template match="t:titlepage-before"/> Description Each side of the title page is preceded by the markup specified in the t:titlepage-before element for that side. * (in copy mode) Copy elements <xsl:template match="*" mode="copy"/> Description This template simply copies the elements that it applies to straight through into the result tree. @* (in copy mode) Copy attributes <xsl:template match="@*" mode="copy"/> Description This template simply copies the attributes that it applies to straight through into the result tree. * (in document.order mode) Create rules to process titlepage elements in document order <xsl:template match="*" mode="document.order"/> Description This template is called to process all of the children of the t:titlepage-content element. It creates the hairy select expression necessary to process each of those elements in the title page. Note that this template automatically handles the case where some DocBook elements, like title and subtitle, can occur both inside the *info elements where metadata is usually stored and outside. It also automatically calculates the name for the *info container and handles elements that have historically had containers with different names. * (in document.order mode) Create rules to process titlepage elements in stylesheet order <xsl:template match="*" mode="document.order"/> Description This template is called to process all of the children of the t:titlepage-content element. It creates the set of xsl:apply-templates elements necessary process each of those elements in the title page. Note that this template automatically handles the case where some DocBook elements, like title and subtitle, can occur both inside the *info elements where metadata is usually stored and outside. It also automatically calculates the name for the *info container and handles elements that have historically had containers with different names. * (in titlepage.specialrules mode) Create templates for special rules <xsl:template match="*" mode="titlepage.specialrules"/> Description This template is called to process all of the descendants of the t:titlepage-content element that require special processing. At present, that's just t:or elements. * (in titlepage.subrules mode) Create template for individual special rules <xsl:template match="*" mode="titlepage.subrules"/> Description This template is called to process the children of special template elements. t:or Process the t:or special rule <xsl:template match="t:or"/><xsl:template match="t:or" mode="titlepage.subrules"/> Description This template processes t:or. t:or (in titlepage.subrules mode) Process the t:or special rule in titlepage.subrules mode <xsl:template match="t:or" mode="titlepage.subrules"/> Description The titlepage.subrules mode doesn't apply to t:or, so just reprocess this node in the normal mode. element-or-list Construct the "or-list" used in the select attribute for special rules. <xsl:template name="element-or-list"> <xsl:param name="elements" select="*"/> <xsl:param name="element.count" select="count($elements)"/> <xsl:param name="count" select="1"/> <xsl:param name="orlist"/> ... </xsl:template> Description Walk through each of the children of t:or, producing the text of the select attribute.
