Re: Unicode check mark missing in XSL-FO PDF output

FOP makes exactly the same font substitutions when using the stock stylesheets and my customization:
Replacing Symbol, normal 700 with Symbol, normal 400
Replacing ZapfDingbats normal 700 with SapfDingbats, normal 400
Replacing ZapfDingbats italic 400 with SapfDingbats, normal 400
 
The check mark is displayed as a hash (#) with the stock stylesheets and as a blank square with customization.
 
Fonts used in PDF are:
 
Stock stylesheets: CourierStd, CourierStd-Bold, Arial-BoldMT, TimesNewRomanPS-BoldMT, TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT, and TimesNewRomanPSMT
 
Customization: CourierStd, CourierStd-Bold, Verdana (normal, bold, and italic), and TimesNewRomanPSMT
 
As you can see, Symbol and ZapfDingbats do not appear in the PDF.
FOP is configured with the auto-detect parameter and it correctly detects and embeds Verdana

I'm pretty sure the problem is in the font selection, so I'd suggest you check the pdf file to see what fonts it thinks it is using.
 
If they aren't what you expect, then most likely the problem is either in your customization or your font setup for fop.
 
It may also be worth trying to generate the pdf using the standard stylesheets with no stylesheet customization. That will help you eliminate your customization as the problem.
 
Hope that helps.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Unicode check mark missing in XSL-FO PDF output

Trying to use the unicode check mark symbol (&check; Hex2713) from isopub.ent, but end up with a blank square in the PDF.

I use oXygen 11 (saxon 6.5.5 and FOP) and DocBook 5 with the 1.75.2 stylesheets.The body-font-family is Verdana, the symbol-font-family is the stylesheet default.

The problem is not the entity files, oXygen resolves the entity and displays the check mark correctly on screen.
I've tried to wrap the entity in a fo-inline by the suggested template customization for FOP. This does not work for me.

I guess it is either FOP or Acrobat that is messing up, but how do I find out which one, and how do I solve it?

Using MathML XSL Stylesheets with XHTML and HtmlHelp, again

Hi docbook experts!

I am struggling to get MathML to work with htmlhelp. The only useful reference I found was this <http://markmail.org/thread/5kxwqwx3uihdytv2> thread on this list, where Dean seems to have got this to work. Unfortunately, repeating (at the best of my skills) his steps does not succeed for me.

As described, I made a customization layer xsl (see attachment modelon-htmlhelp.xsl). The transformation (xsltproc with docbook xsl 1.75.2) passes fine and a set of files (index.htm.xml, ch01.htm.xml, etc) are generated. The generated xml files have the head elements (before <html>):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="mathml.xsl"?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> Compilation with MS help compiler generate the warnings described in Dean's post and a chm file is generated.

Now, opening  the .chm file shows the document outline but not page contents.  The following error is displayed:

The XML page cannot be displayed

Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.

System error: -2146697204. Error processing resource 'http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd'.


The same error is reported when opening index.htm.xml in IE 8. It displays fine in Firefox.

I am quite new to docbook and xslt, so I may have misinterpreted the instructions. Any help or hints to what is wrong would be very much appreciated.

I got xhtml output to work on IE (see attachment modelon-xhtml.xsl), using the header tags
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 plus MathML 2.0 plus SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Math/DTD/mathml2/xhtml-math11-f.dtd"> I also tried this dtd with htmlhelp, but without success.

Again, I would be much grateful for any hints or help on this matter.

Here's what I think is the essence of David's wish, which I share: the
equivalent of a LaTeX eqnarray - a single math environment with multiple
lines of math, each of them (optionally) numbered.

I fear this goes beyond what the current DocBook+MathML integration can
handle.

Re: improve DocBook's HTML output

It would be useful to be able to have a customised style sheet that's
used in addition to the default CSS rather than replacing it. This
would make it easier to keep track of which CSS rules are
customisations and which come from the default style sheet. And it
would make it easier to upgrade to new versions of the DocBook XSL
style sheets, because if the user had a CSS style sheet that's a
customised version of the default CSS, they'd have to merge in any
changes to the default CSS introduced by the upgrade.

Since the 'html.stylesheet' parameter can contain multiple CSS file
names, maybe one way to do this would be to write the generated CSS to
the first file, and treat the others as at present, ie just write
<link> elements and rely on the user to put CSS files in the output
directory. But this seems a bit confusing to me, and I think it would
be simpler to have the generated CSS file name controlled by a
separate parameter.

Re: Using MathML XSL Stylesheets with XHTML and HtmlHelp, again

Magnus,
 
MathML for the HTMLHelp is really touchy. I had it working and then I fixed it! Not sure what I did to make it work last year, but I can look into it. I retraced my steps and came up with the same results that you did.

Dean Nelson

Re: Using MathML XSL Stylesheets with XHTML and HtmlHelp, again

Thanks Dean.

Although discouraging, I am kind of satisfied to see that is was not a mistake from my side then. I will probably revert to converting the math to png and use vanilla htmlhelp.

Thanks for your time

Best regards,
Magnus

The customised style sheet can import the default CSS using CSS's
' <at> import' rule [1].

Only if the default CSS is still output somewhere. If I understand
Bob's proposal correctly, the customised CSS would replace the default
CSS, so you'd have to copy the default CSS to the output directory to
be able to  <at> import it (or you could import it from a remote URL, maybe
a standard location on one of the DocBook websites, but that would
introduce other potential problems).

One important point is to ensure that 100% valid and conformant output can

output suffers from "div-itis" (excessive use of <div> elements). See

I don't think that generating valid HTML needs to be a short-term
goal. My suggestion would be to focus first on clean & valid XHTML
output, then decide how much more work (if any) it would take to
create valid HTML.

I don't find this a very concerning opinion at this time.
