Subject: RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: Wrap text around images in PDFs, using xsl:fo
Oh. In that case, I think you can quite legitimately point fingers at both DocBook and FOP. I just checked FOP's website, and they do not suppor the <fo:float/> formatting object. However, there's also nothing in the DocBook DTD or in Norm's stylesheets to output an <fo:float/>. It certainly seems that with your particular tool chain, floats are at the moment impossible. If you were to switch FO formatters, I could envision a stylesheet customization along the lines of <xsl:template match="inlinemediaobject[@role='floatleft']"> <fo:float float="left"> <xsl:apply-imports/> </fo:float> </xsl:template> that would work. For now, though, there's nothing in DocBook to support floating images. (It might make a nice RFE, though.)

I should have been clearer in my question - I actually meant, whether such behavior is supported by the docbook xsl style sheets for fo, because that's where I can't get it to work. I'm using FOP - is that the sinner here, or is it not supported at the style sheet level? /claus > -----Original Message----- > From: Jeff Beal [mailto:jeff.beal@ansys.com] > Sent: 14. marts 2003 15:33 > To: Claus Rasmussen; docbook-apps@lists.oasis-open.org > Subject: RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: Wrap text around images in PDFs, using xsl:fo > > You'll need to place the image inside of a <fo:float/> element. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Claus Rasmussen [mailto:clr@interse.com] > Sent: Friday, March 14, 2003 8:55 AM > To: docbook-apps@lists.oasis-open.org > Subject: DOCBOOK-APPS: Wrap text around images in PDFs, using xsl:fo > > > Is subj. possible at all?
