Subject: Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: xsl-fo: title page customization and bug resolutionin xsltproc
I had the same problem over the weekend. This must be a problem with xsltproc, I wrote a readme for the complete resolution process. It entails using the java Xerces-Xalan-FOP build environment, support seems to be better in this environment and the performance isn't as desirable as xsltproc, but I believe it is more supported and will eventually replace xsltproc as time goes on (I opened a can of worms on that statement ;). Do the following (or move directly to line item 7 if you have Xerces-Xalan-FOP). To create build environment for DocBook Documents (Redhat Distro) ------------------------------------------------- Date: Feb 18, 2003. Author: Damian Kohlfeld 1) install j2sdk-1.4.x (j2sdk1.4.1_01 at time of this writing) 2) cd into /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_xx directory (/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01 at time of this writing) 3) install jai-lib-linux for the JDK (not JRE environment) Note: This isn't documented anywhere!!! in the FOP install docs. The rc version of FOP no longer uses Jimi. (jai-1_1_2-beta-lib-linux-i586-jdk at time of this writing) 4) cd into opt and unzip xalan bundle and fop (xalan-j_2_4_1-bin.tar.gz and fop-0.20.5rc-bin.tar.gz at time of this writing) 5) Update the CLASSPATH variable in $HOME/.bash_profile to include directory to the tools.jar file which came with the j2sdk, where $HOME is the path to your home directory. i.e. (for j2sdk1.4.1_01 at time of this writing) CLASSPATH=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01/lib/tools.jar export CLASSPATH 6) Update your PATH variable in $HOME/.bash_profile to include the path for the java executable, where $HOME is the path to your home directory. i.e. (for j2sdk1.4.1_01 at time of this writing) PATH=$PATH:/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_01/bin export PATH 7) To create the custom stylesheet with the spec file, run this command: java -Djava.endorsed.dirs=/opt/xalan-j_2_4_1/bin org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process\ -out fo/mytitlepages.xsl -in fo/titlepage.templates.xml\ -xsl template/titlepage.xsl --------------------------------------------------------------------- You are now ready to build DocBook documents using the build scripts. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bernd Kuemmerlen" <bkuemmer@gmx.net> To: <docbook-apps@lists.oasis-open.org> Sent: Tuesday, February 18, 2003 6:09 AM Subject: DOCBOOK-APPS: xsl-fo: title page customization > Hello there, > > sorry if this might be a newbie question, but I am very new to the world > of xsl. > > I would like to customize the title pages of our pdf documents using the > method described in > <http://www.sagehill.net/xml/docbookxsl/HtmlCustomEx.html#HTMLTitlePage> > and > <http://www.sagehill.net/xml/docbookxsl/PrintCustomEx.html#PrintTitlepageSpe cfile> > > My problem is that the stylesheet I create with > > xsltproc --output fo/mytitlepages.xsl template/titlepage.xsl > fo/titlepage.templates.xml > > (for testing purposes I just tried to use the provided > titlepage.templates.xml) has a lot of empty namespace prefix > declarations like > > <fo:block xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" xmlns:ns1="" > xsl:use-attribute-sets="article.titlepage.recto.style" > ns1:keep-with-next="always" ns1:font-size="24.8832pt" > ns1:font-weight="bold"> > > the fo generation from a DocBook XML file using xsltproc gives lots of > errors about "Empty namespace name for prefix ns...": > > xsltproc --catalogs --output ./fo/job.fo \ > > /raid/1/projects/ilab/Documentation/lib/xml/xsl/docbook/mevis/fo.xsl job.xml > /raid/1/projects/ilab/Documentation/lib/xml/xsl/docbook/fo/mytitlepages.xsl: 152: > error: Empty namespace name for prefix ns1 > le" ns1:keep-with-next="always" ns1:font-size="24.8832pt" > ns1:font-weight="bold > > ^ > /raid/1/projects/ilab/Documentation/lib/xml/xsl/docbook/fo/mytitlepages.xsl: 166: > error: Empty namespace name for prefix ns2 > ="article.titlepage.recto.style" ns2:space-before="0.5em" > ns2:font-size="14.4pt > > ^ > > and the subsequent processing of the FO with XEP also fails with an > error related to the prefix: > > xep.sh -fo ./fo/job.fo -out ./pdf/job.pdf > (document > (validate SAX parsing errors encountered no such prefix "ns15" > > What is the problem here?
