Most tables are assigned table-layout="fixed", but there are a few layout
tables for certain elements generated by the stylesheet that don't have a
table-layout property. That is a deficiency of the stylesheet, but FOP
still processes them as "fixed" after complaining about them.

That's correct.

indexterm and FOP
Hello,
The docbook DTD allows the element indexterm as a direct
child of section or chapter; however, if we do that, the
index is correctly built by the stylesheets, but the target
elements that are direct children of section or chapter
(original indexterm elements) are discarded by FOP, which
then complains of unfound references.
A simple solution to this problem is to enclose indexterm
elements with para elements: in that case the targets
are not discarded and the index works fine.
But, then there is another problem: big white spaces in
the PDF output where the "wrapper" para elements were.
So the question is:
- is there a way to tell FOP to not allow white space
or space before / after for paragraphs that have no
visible content?
- or, is there another "wrapper element" that can be
used to hold indexterm elements under sections?
Thanks,
Regards,
EB

An indexterm generally wraps content to be indexed. Since you cannot
have content as such a child, why would you want to index 'nothing'?

Why not use indexterm with existing content, which is
how I think it is intended to be used

RE: indexterm and FOP
Hello,
Thank you for your answer.
Our indexterm have primary as children elements, and those
primary elements contain terms that should appear in the
index, but do not appear in the text.
For example, if a section talks about "Mozart" but never
uses the term "music", and we would like to have an entry
"music" in the index that points to the section, then we
have:
section
indexterm
primary
music
Of course, it would be a little more specific and accurate
if the indexterm was next to Mozart instead of as child of
section, but that would require much too much editorial
work (considering that the original document was authored
this way).
Thanks,
Regards,
EB

I agree it would be nice if content could be used for the index
term, but many times the entry is different from the actual
content.
See the example at
http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/indexterm.htmlIt is necessary to add the content you want which is
used in the index, as extra text.
Note that the indexterm content does not appear in
the output main text.

RE: indexterm and FOP
Yes, I have no problem with that: we are adding the
terms that should appear in the index, as extra text.
And it usually works flawlessly, when the indexterms
are in the "flow" of the text.
But some terms are relevant to a section "as a whole"
and (therefore) the corresponding index entry should
point to the first page of the section, not the first
page of the content, or (worse) descendant sections.
In those cases (ie where index terms are relevant to a
whole section and not just some paragraph), indexterm
elements cannot be anywhere else but as children of
section:
- if they are put at the start of the actual content,
the page number can be wrong (if the section
starts at the end of a page for example) -- and it
is semantically wrong anyway
- if they are put in a descendant section it is
semantically very wrong, and the page number will
very likely be incorrect.
Or is there another way?

EB

The reason you 'need' the para (or title) is for
the anchor/id attribute in the html/pdf output?
If the output starts with the title then that
is the correct place surely?
You could tweak the fo to insist on 'keep-with-next'
for the title and first para, but I can't think of
any reason why you would get a page break before
a section title and *after* a (non existant) start
of a section?

RE: indexterm and FOP
Ah, yes, the idea of putting indexterm as children of title
instead of section, without a "para wrapper", was simple
enough... and it works, too! ;-)
Thanks...!
Regards,
EB
(Actually it works for section/title but doesn't seem to work
for part/title in which case the relevant anchors are not
produced by the docbook xsl -- but there is only one occurrence
and it doesn't really matter).

See later thread on Clarification.
Example. If you had an indexterm which is formatted 4 pages
later than the sect1 element, the pdf output would be wrong.
It appears that the processing should be different for
html and print, or the descriptions and expectations need
to be aligned better.

How to include Mathematical equations in DocBook 5 ?
|

Re: indexterm and FOP
Actually, this is something that the stylesheet can and should handle. The
DocBook schema does permit indexterm elements at all those levels, and the
stylesheet should support them without the workarounds that have been
discussed (and will make it work for you today).
There was already some code to solve this problem for the Antenna House FO
engine, because it also could not recognize an fo:wrapper as a child of the
fo:flow for index entries at the top level. It required an empty fo:block
at that level to work, as does the current FOP. But it turns out that the
code had a bug in it that prevented it from working properly. I fixed that
bug, and added "fop1.extensions" to the choose statement that uses it. The
next snapshot should support indexterm elements as a direct child of chapter
and section for both Antenna House and fop 0.94.

Re: How to include Mathematical equations in DocBook 5 ?
Hi,
In DocBook 5's RelaxNG schema, the imagedata, equation, and informalequation
elements can contain elements in the MathML namespace. So the equation
example in the book is still accurate, you can just skip the DOCTYPE
declarations.
Once you mix namespaces, though, validation becomes more complicated. See
this doc for more information:

Re: How to include Mathematical equations in DocBook 5 ?
Thank you for your reply.
Following the instructions on
http://docbook.org/docs/howto/#faq-customization-mathml,
I downloaded
the MathML RELAX NG schema from
http://yupotan.sppd.ne.jp/relax-ng/mml2.html
& unpacked it in
"mathml" directory. Added the following lines to my customdocbook.rng
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<grammar xmlns="http://relaxng.org/ns/structure/1.0">
<include href="/path/to/docbook.rng">
<define name="db._any.mml">
<externalRef href="mathml/mathml2.rng"/>
</define>
<define name="db._any">

<anyName>
<except>
<nsName ns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"/>
<nsName ns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"/>

<attribute>
<anyName/>
</attribute>
<text/>
<ref name="db._any"/>
</choice>
</zeroOrMore>
</element>
</define>

Then, I added the following equation:
<sect1><title>Equations <title>
<equation>
<title>My MathML example</title>
<mml:math>
<mml:mrow>
<mml:mo>∑</mml:mo>
<mml:mn>4</mml:mn>
<mml:mo>+</mml:mo>
<mml:mi>x</mml:mi>
</mml:mrow>
</mml:math>
</equation>
</sect1>
in the article. When I tried to validate it, (I'm using oXygen XML
Editor) I got error messages:
conflicting ID-types for attribute "linkend" of element "msginfo" from
namespace "http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"
The prefix "mml" for element "mml:math"
is not bound.
I read the information on: http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/ProcesingDb5.html#Db5Validation
However, did not find it helpful, may be because I'm using the XML

Any idea, why does it not like/recognize the prefix "mml"?

Hi,
Well, any namespace you use in a document must be
declared in the document. If you are using DocBook5, you know how to
declare the docbook namespace in the root element's start tag. Do the same
for the mml namespace in the same place and it will apply to the entire
document. That should eliminate that error.

Re: [docbook] PDF Convertion faults
Hi,
Thanks for clarifying. Hyphenation is done by the FO processor and is
dependent on the locale. The Apache site has information about configuring
FOP for hyphenation:
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.94/hyphenation.htmlRegarding adding color to text in PDF, the FO property named "color" can do
that. It requires using an attribute-set if one is available for the
intended text, or a template customization. Maybe you could describe what
you are trying to color.

Oh! I was under the (wrong) impression that including the namespace
declaration in the customdocbook.rng schema was sufficient. I now have
the namsespace declaration in the xml document & now it does not
complain about the prefix "mml"; however, now upon validation, I get
the following error:
"The entity "sum" was referenced, but not declared."
at line: <mml:mo>∑</mml:mo>
Am I missing something ?

conflicting ID-types for attribute "linkend" of element "msginfo" from

The prefix "mml" for element "mml:math"
is not bound.
I read the information on: http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/ProcesingDb5.html#Db5Validation
However, did not find it helpful, may be because I'm using the XML

Any idea, why does it not like/recognize the prefix "mml"?
Thanks!

Hi,
In DocBook 5's RelaxNG schema, the imagedata, equation, and
informalequation elements can contain elements in the MathML
namespace. So the equation example in the book is still accurate, you
can just skip the DOCTYPE declarations.
Once you mix namespaces, though, validation becomes more complicated.
See this doc for more information:

Hi All,
I would like to know how to include Mathematical equations in DocBook 5
?
I know of an example listed on: http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/MathML.html
However, it's using DB 4.5. I am using DB 5.0.
Any examples will be helpful.
TIA,

Hi,
Any general entities like ∑ that you use in
your document must be declared, either in the document or the schema.
Since RelaxNG does not have a way to declare entities, your document must
reference the declarations of such entities. See:
In addition to the DocBook entities, the MathML DTD
also has many entities. If you decide to use those, you will also have to
include the declaration of those entities.

Oh! I was under the (wrong) impression that including the
namespace declaration in the customdocbook.rng schema was sufficient. I now
have the namsespace declaration in the xml document & now it does not
complain about the prefix "mml"; however, now upon validation, I get the
following error:
"The entity "sum" was referenced, but not declared."
at
line: <mml:mo>∑</mml:mo>

Hi,
Well, any namespace you use in a document must
be declared in the document. If you are using DocBook5, you know how
to declare the docbook namespace in the root element's start tag. Do
the same for the mml namespace in the same place and it will apply to the
entire document. That should eliminate that error.

Thank you Bob; that was helpful.
I have now included the flattened entity definition file from W3C.
I am trying to include the following equation( sqrt(a) ) in my document:
<equation>
<mml:math>
<mml:msqrt>
<mml:mi>a</mml:mi>
</mml:msqrt>
</mml:math>
</equation>
However, the element msqrt is not rendered as a Squareroot symbol,
instead it appears as # in the transformed PDF file. I know, the
element msqrt is declared in the mathml.dtd. Do I need to include the
mathml.dtd in my DB5 document(or the customdb.rng schema)? If so, how
do I include the mathml.dtd?
I have the following in the customdb.rng:
<include
href="/w/audi/anagha/work/SVN/documentation/oXygen/frameworks/docbook/5.0/rng/docbook.rng">
<define name="db._any.mml">
<externalRef href="mml2/mathml2.rng"/>

Most likely this is a font issue. Take a peek
inside the FO file and see what character is shown for msqrt. It is
probably a Unicode character whose glyph isn't in your body font.
