This release-notes document is available in the following formats: HTML, PDF, plain text; it provides a per-release list of enhancements and changes to the stylesheets’ public APIs (user-configurable parameters) and excludes descriptions of most bug fixes. For a complete list of all changes (including all bug fixes) that have been made since the previous release, see the separate NEWS (plain text) or NEWS.html files. Also available: An online hyperlinked change history (warning: big file) of all changes made over the entire history of the codebase.
As with all DocBook Project “dot one plus” releases, this release aspires to be stable (in contrast to dot-zero releases, which are experimental).

The following list summarizes the major changes that have been made since the 1.76.1 release. It is followed by sections detailing changes to individual files from the SVN checkin logs, edited to remove housekeeping changes and bug fixes. See the NEWS.xml file for a complete unedited list of SVN changes.
Gentext
Many improvements to the generated text for webhelp output.
Common
Expanded list of supported filename extensions for media to include video and audio, mostly for HTML5 and EPUB3 outputs.
Add basic support for new topic
element, which is available in DocBook 5.1. Generally a topic element will be used with assembly
and may be transformed to some other hierarchical element during processing, but it can also be formatted as a plain topic.
FO
Add a para.properties
attribute-set that applies only to para elements. That allows still using normal.para.spacing
attribute-set for many block elements for uniform spacing, but allows separate formatting of para elements.
Add support for List of Tables, List of Figures, etc. for articles and other component-level elements. Includes a new template for each in autotoc.xsl
, new attribute-sets in titlepage.xsl
, and new entries in the titlepage.templates.xml
file tu support customization.
Add template mode simple.xlink.properties
to allow
easy customization of formatting of links generated
from elements that use
the xlink attributes. This extends link formatting beyond that of xref
, link
, and olink
which use xref.properties
attribute-set.
The caption element in an HTML table is now handled like a title in a CALS table, using the formal.object.title
template with all its features, including placement. Now caption
template in mode="htmlTable"
does nothing, because
caption handled by formal.object.title
template. Also adds support for table caption
element in a CALS table, placing it after the table.
Refactored the big process.image
template to use individual templates such as image.width
for most attributes to allow easier customization of individual properties.
Add support for side page regions in addition to header and footer regions. This feature lets you add running content to the side margins, and by default the content is rotated 90 degrees. Adds new templates named running.side.content
, region.inner
and region.outer
; new template modes
new parameters named region.inner.mode
and region.outer.mode
; region.inner.extent
, region.outer.extent
, body.margin.inner
, body.margin.outer
, and side.region.precedence
; and new attribute-sets named inner.region.content.properties
, outer.region.content.properties
, region.inner.properties
, and region.outer.properties
.
Add new attribute-sets for calloutlist
.
Add basic support for formatting a topic element, which is available in DocBook 5.1.
HTML
Add variables to the base HTML stylesheets that can be adjusted for the HTML5 stylesheets.
Add support for html.script
param to insert reference to a Javascript file.
Titlepage mechanism is now namespace aware to support XHTML.
New param named chunked.filename.prefix
lets you add a filename prefix to each chunked file. This replaces the buggy practice of adding such a prefix to the base.dir
param. Now the base.dir
param will always have a trailing slash added if it is not present, so you no longer have to remember to add it to the param value.
The stylesheet param generate.id.attributes
already existed but was incompletely implemented. Now when it is set to 1, only id
attributes should be output, not <a name>
named anchors.
New generate.consistent.ids
parameter which allows generating a more stable id values based on XPath rather than the generate-id()
function, which may not produce consistent values between runs. Stable output ids allow you to make stable links to generated content from the outside.
Add basic support for formatting a topic element, which is available in DocBook 5.1. Generally a topic element will be used with assembly and may be transformed to some other hierarchical element during processing, but it can also be formatted as a plain topic.
Webhelp
Webhelp templates refactored to better support customization.
More and better documentation added.
Many improvements to the generated text for webhelp output.
XHTML5
New stylesheets to generate HTML5 output, in an XML serialization. These templates are a customization layer on top of the XHTML stylesheet files.
EPUB3
New stylesheets to generate EPUB3 output. These templates are a customization layer on top of the xhtml5 stylesheet files.
Assembly
New assembly.xsl
stylesheet to convert a DocBook 5.1 assembly into a standard DocBook 5 document. Also includes a topic-maker-chunk.xsl
stylesheet that can convert a DocBook 5 book or article document into an assembly with a collection of modular files, including converting some elements to topic files.

This release includes important bug fixes and adds the following significant feature changes:
Modifications to translations have been made.
Added support for some format properties on tables using
HTML table
markup.
Added two new qanda.defaultlabel
values so that numbered sections
and numbered questions can be distinguished. Satisfies
Feature Request #1539045.
Added code to handle acknowledgements
in book
and part. The element is processed
similarly to dedication
. All acknowledgements
will appear as front matter, after
any dedications.
The inclusion of highlighting code has been simplified.
Add support for pgwide on informal objects.
Added a new parameter, bookmarks.collapse
, that controls the initial state
of the bookmark tree. Closes FR #1792326.
Add support for more dbfo processing instructions.
Add new variablelist.term.properties
to format terms, per request # 1968513.
Add support for @width on screen
and programlisting
, fixes bug #2012736.
Add support for writing-mode="rl-tb" (right-to-left) in FO outputs.
Add writing.mode
param for FO output.
Convert all calls to class.attribute to calls to common.html.attributes to support dir, lang, and title
attributes in html output for all elements. Fulfills feature request #1993833.
Inclusion of highlighting code was simplified. Only one import is now necessary.
Add new param index.links.to.section
.
Add support for the new index.links.to.section
param which permits precise links to indexterms in HTML output rather than to the section
title
.
Slightly more nuanced handling of imageobject
alternatives and better support in dbtoepub for XIncludes and ENTITYs to resolve Issue #2750442 reported by Raphael Hertzog.
Added a colon after an abstract
/title
when mapping into the dc:description for OPF metadata in ePub output to help the flat text have more pseudo-semantics (sugestions from Michael Wiedmann)
Added DocBook subjectset
-> OPF dc:subject
mapping and tests
Added DocBook date
-> OPF dc:date mapping and tests
Added DocBook abstract
-> OPF dc:description mapping and tests

target database
for htmlhelp files.
Add default setting for @rules attribute on HTML markup tables.
Added a new parameter, bookmarks.collapse
, that controls the initial state
of the bookmark tree. When the parameter has a non-zero value (the default), only the top-level bookmarks are displayed initially. Otherwise, the whole tree of bookmarks is displayed. This is implemented for FOP 0.9X. Closes FR #1792326.
Add new variablelist.term.properties
to format terms, per request # 1968513.
Add two new qanda.defaultlabel
values so that numbered sections and numbered questions can be distinguished. Satisfies Feature Request #1539045.

The following changes have been made to the params
since the 1.74.0 release.
The change was to add man.output.better.ps.enabled parameter, with
its default value set to zero.
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
.
WARNING: 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.
NOTE: 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.
TIP
: 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

This release includes important bug fixes and adds the following significant feature changes:
Paul Norton (Adobe) and Keith Fahlgren(O'Reilly Media) have donated code that generates .epub
documents from
DocBook input. An alpha-reference implementation in Ruby has also been provided.
.epub is an open standard of the The International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF), a the trade and standards association for the digital publishing industry.
Read more about this target in epub/README
To support .epub output, a strict XHTML 1.1 target has been added. The stylesheets for this output are generated and are quite similar to the XHTML target.
A number of locales have been updated.
Table, figure, template syncronization, and character style improvements have been made for WordML & Pages. Support added for OpenOffice.org.
A stylesheet extension for libxslt, written in Python, has been added.
The extension is a function for adjusting column widths in CALS tables. See
extensions/README.LIBXSLT
for more information.

This release includes important bug fixes and adds the following significant feature changes:
We added two new localizations: Latvian and Esperanto, and made updates to the Czech, Chinese Simplified, Mongolian, Serbian, Italian, and Ukrainian localizations.
Set the
bibliography.style
parameter to
iso690
to use ISO690 style.
The reference documentation that ships with the release now includes documentation on all PIs that you can use to control output from the stylesheets.
audience
and wordsize
You can now do profiling based on the values of the
audience
and
wordsize
attributes.
The manpages stylesheet now supports single-pass
profiling and single-pass DocBook 5 namespace stripping
(just as the HTML and FO stylesheets also do). Also, added
handling for mediaobject
&
inlinemediaobject
. (Each imagedata
,
audiodata
, or videodata
element
within a mediaobject
or inline
mediaobject
is now treated as a "notesource"
and so handled in much the same way as links and
annotation
/alt
/footnote
are in manpages output.) And added the
man.authors.section.enabled
and
man.copyright.section.enabled
parameters to enable control over whether output includes
auto-generated AUTHORS
and
COPYRIGHT
sections.
The highlighting mechanism for generating syntax-highlighted code snippets in output now supports C code listings (along with Java, PHP, XSLT, and others).
docbook-xsl-update script
We added an experimental docbook-xsl-update
script
, the purpose of which is to facilitate
easy sync-up to the latest docbook-xsl snapshot (by means
of rsync).

This release includes important bug fixes and adds the following significant feature changes:
The HTML and FO stylesheets now support automatic sorting
of glossary
entries. To enable glossary sorting, set
the value of the glossary.sort
parameter
to 1
(by default, it’s value is
0
). When you enable glossary sorting,
glossentry
elements within a glossary
,
glossdiv
, or glosslist
are sorted on the
glossterm
, using the current language setting. If you
don’t enable glossary sorting, then the order of
glossentry
elements is left “as is” — that is, they
are not sorted but are instead just displayed in document
order.
Stylesheets for “roundtrip” conversion between documents in OpenOffice format (ODF) and DocBook XML have been added to the set of stylesheets that formerly had the collective title WordML, and that set of stylesheets has been renamed to Roundtrip to better reflect the actual scope and purpose of its contents.
So the DocBook XSL Stylesheets now support roundtrip conversion (with certain limitations) of WordML, OpenOffice, and Apple Pages documents to and from DocBook XML.
The HTML stylesheet now provides support for including
QandASet
question
s in the document TOC. To
enable display of question
s in the document TOC, set
the value of the qanda.in.toc
to
1
(by default, it’s 0
). When you
enable qanda.in.toc
, then the generated
table of contents for a document will include
qandaset
titles, qandadiv
titles, and
question
elements. The default value of zero
excludes them from the TOC.
The qanda.in.toc
parameter does
not affect any tables of contents that may be generated
within a qandaset
or
qandadiv
(only in the document TOC).
Added new parameter man.output.lang.in.name.enabled
, which controls whether
a language identifier is included in man-page filenames and
pathnames. It works like this:
If the value of man.output.lang.in.name.enabled
is non-zero,
man-page files are output with a language identifier included in
their filenames or pathnames as follows:
if
man.output.subdirs.enabled
is non-zero,
each file is output to, e.g., a
/$lang/man8/foo.8
pathname
if
man.output.subdirs.enabled
is zero,
each file is output with a foo.$lang.8
filename
index.page.number.properties
property setFor FO output, use the
index.page.number.properties
to control
formatting of page numbers in index
output — to (for
example) to display page numbers in index
output in a
different color (to indicate that they are links).
Support has been added for generating crop marks in print/PDF output generated using Antenna House XSL Formatter
The man.string.subst.map.local.pre
and man.string.subst.map.local.post
parameters have been added to enable easier control over
custom string substitutions.
The hardcoded properties used in verbatim elements (literallayout, programlisting, screen) were moved to the verbatim.properties attribute-set so they can be more easily customized.
Now the simple.xlink template in inline.xsl works with cross reference elements xref and link as well. Also, more elements call simple.xlink, which enables DB5 xlink functionality.
Stylesheets now consistently support DocBook 5 attributes (such as xml:id). Also, DocBook 5 info elements are now checked along with other *info elements, and the use of name() function was replaced by local-name() so it also matches on DocBook 5 elements. These changes enable reusing the stylesheets with DocBook 5 documents with minimal fixup.
The HTML class attributes were formerly hardcoded to the element name. Now the class attribute is generated by applying templates in class.attribute mode so class attribute names can be customized. The default is still the element name.
Numbering of chapter, sections, and pages can now use arabic-indic numbering when number format is set to 'arabicindic' or to ١.
The following is a detailed list of changes (not including bug fixes) that have been made since the 1.71.1 release.
This is a minor update to the 1.71.0 release. Along with a number of bug fixes, it includes two feature changes:
Added support for profiling based on xml:lang
and status
attributes.
Added initial support in manpages output for
footnote
, annotation
, and alt
instances. Basically, they all now get handled the same way
ulink
instances are. They are treated as a class as
"note sources": A numbered marker is generated at the place in the
main text flow where they occur, then their contents are displayed
in an endnotes section at the end of the man page.
The following changes have been made to the
highlighting
code
since the 1.71.1 release.
This is mainly a bug fix release, but it also includes two significant feature changes:
The stylesheets now include support for source-code
highlighting in output of programlisting instances (controlled
through the highlight.source
parameter). The Java-based implementation requires Saxon and
makes use of Michal Molhanec’s XSLTHL. More details are available at Jirka Kosek’s
website:
The support is currently limited to highlighting of XML, Java, PHP, Delphi, Modula-2 sources, and INI files.
The templates that handle alternative indexing methods were reworked to avoid errors produced by certain processors not being able to tolerate the presence of unused functions. With this release, none of the code for the 'kimber' or 'kosek' methods is included in the default stylesheets. In order to use one of those methods, your customization layer must import one of the optional stylesheet modules:
See the index.method
parameter
reference page for more information.
Two other changes to note:
index.method
parameter was changed
from 'english' to 'basic' because now the default method can
handle latin-based alphabets, not just English.
The following is a list of changes that have been made since the 1.70.1 release.
The following changes have been made to the
highlighting
code
since the 1.70.1 release.
This is a stable release of the 1.70 stylesheets. It includes only a few small changes from 1.70.0.
The following is a list of changes that have been made since the 1.70.0 release.
The following changes have been made to the
fo
code
since the 1.70.0 release.
Added three new attribute sets (revhistory.title.properties, revhistory.table.properties and revhistory.table.cell.properties) for controlling appearance of revhistory in FO output.

The following changes have been made to the
htmlhelp
code
since the 1.70.0 release.
htmlhelp.generate.index is now param, not variable. This means that you can override its setting from outside. This is useful when you generate indexterms on the fly (see http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2004/07/14/dbndx.html?page=3).
Modified: htmlhelp/htmlhelp-common.xsl,1.38 - Jirka Kosek
Support chunk.tocs.and.lots in HTML Help
Modified: htmlhelp/htmlhelp-common.xsl,1.37 - Jirka Kosek
The following changes have been made to the
params
code
since the 1.70.0 release.
Added three new attribute sets (revhistory.title.properties, revhistory.table.properties and revhistory.table.cell.properties) for controlling appearance of revhistory in FO output.

As with all DocBook Project dot-zero releases, this is an experimental release. It will be followed shortly by a stable release.
This release adds a number of new features, including:
support for selecting alternative index-collation methods (in particular, support for using a collation library developed by Eliot Kimber)
improved handling of DocBook 5 document instances (through a namespace-stripping mechanism)
full support for CALS and HTML tables in manpages output
a mechanism for preserving relative URIs in documents that make use of XInclude
support for the "new" .90
version of
FOP
enhanced capabilities for controlling formatting of lists in HTML and FO output
autogeneration of AUTHOR and COPYRIGHT sections in manpages output
support for generating crop marks in FO/PDF output
support for qandaset as a root element in FO output
support for floatstyle and orient on all table types
support for floatstyle in figure, and example
pgwide.properties attribute-set supports extending figure, example and table into the left indent area instead of spanning multiple columns.
The following is a detailed list of enhancements and API changes that have been made since the 1.69.1 release.
The following changes have been made to the
common
code
since the 1.69.1 release.
Add the xsl:key for the kimber indexing method.
Modified: common/autoidx-ng.xsl,1.2 - Robert Stayton
Add support for
qandaset
.
Modified: common/labels.xsl,1.37; common/subtitles.xsl,1.7; common/titles.xsl,1.35 - Robert Stayton
Support dbhtml/dbfo start PI for
orderedlist
numbering in both HTML and
FO
Modified: common/common.xsl,1.61; html/lists.xsl,1.50 - Norman Walsh
Added CVS header.
Modified: common/stripns.xsl,1.12 - Robert Stayton
Changed content model of text element to ANY rather than #PCDATA because they could contain markup.
Modified: common/targetdatabase.dtd,1.7 - Robert Stayton
Added
refentry
.meta.get.quietly param.
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.
NOTE: 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.
Modified: common/refentry.xsl,1.17; manpages/param.ent,1.15; manpages/param.xweb,1.17; params/refentry.meta.get.quietly.xml,1.1 - Michael(tm) Smith
After namespace stripping, the
source document is the temporary tree created by the stripping
process and it has the wrong base URI
for relative
references. Earlier versions of this code used to try to fix that
by patching the elements with relative @fileref attributes. That
was inadequate because it calculated an absolute base URI
without considering that there might be xml:base attributes
already in effect. It seems obvious now that the right thing to
do is simply to put the xml:base on the root of the document. And
that seems to work.
Modified: common/stripns.xsl,1.7 - Norman Walsh
Added support for "software" and
"sectdesc" class values on refmiscinfo
; "software" is
treated identically to "source", and "setdesc" is treated
identically to "manual".
Modified: common/refentry.xsl,1.10; params/man.th.extra2.max.length.xml,1.3; params/refentry.source.name.profile.xml,1.4 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added support for DocBook 5 namespace-stripping in manpages stylesheet. Closes request #1210692.
Modified: common/common.xsl,1.56; manpages/docbook.xsl,1.57 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added <xsl:template match="/"> to make stripns.xsl usable as a standalone stylesheet for stripping out DocBook 5/NG to DocBook 4. Note that DocBook XSLT drivers that include this stylesheet all override the match="/" template.
Modified: common/stripns.xsl,1.4 - Michael(tm) Smith
Number figures, examples, and
tables from book
if there is no prefix (i.e. if
chapter.autolabel
is set to 0). This avoids
having the list of figures where the figures mysteriously restart
their numeration periodically when
chapter.autolabel
is set to
0.
Modified: common/labels.xsl,1.36 - David Cramer
Add task
template in
title
.markup mode.
Modified: common/titles.xsl,1.34 - Robert Stayton
Add children (with ids) of formal objects to target data.
Modified: common/targets.xsl,1.10 - Robert Stayton
Added support for case when
personname
doesn't contain specific name markup (as allowed
in DocBook 5.0)
Modified: common/common.xsl,1.54 - Jirka Kosek
The following changes have been made to the
extensions
code
since the 1.69.1 release.

Handle the case where the imageFn
is actually a URI
. This still needs
work.
Modified: extensions/saxon643/com/nwalsh/saxon/ImageIntrinsics.java,1.4 - Norman Walsh
The following changes have been made to the
fo
code
since the 1.69.1 release.
Adapted to the new indexing code. Now works just like a wrapper that calls kosek indexing method, originally implemented here.
Modified: fo/autoidx-ng.xsl,1.5 - Jirka Kosek

table
minimum height.
Modified: fo/pagesetup.xsl,1.60; fo/param.ent,1.100; fo/param.xweb,1.113 - Robert Stayton
Add the index

parameter.
Modified: fo/param.ent,1.99; fo/param.xweb,1.112 - Robert Stayton
Integrate support for three
indexing methods: - the original English-only method. -
Jirka Kosek's method using EXSLT extensions. - Eliot Kimber's
method using Saxon extensions. Use the 'index
.method'
parameter to select.
Modified: fo/autoidx.xsl,1.38 - Robert Stayton
Add support for TOC
for
qandaset
in fo output.
Modified: fo/autotoc.xsl,1.30; fo/qandaset.xsl,1.20 - Robert Stayton

element cross references to have a page number.
Modified: fo/xref.xsl,1.67 - Robert Stayton
Add support for
ulink.hyphenate
.chars so more characters
can be break points in urls.
Modified: fo/xref.xsl,1.66 - Robert Stayton
Implemented patch #1075144 to make
the url text in a ulink in FO output an active link
as
well.
Modified: fo/xref.xsl,1.65 - Robert Stayton
table
footnotes now
have their own table
.footnote
.properties
attribute set.
Modified: fo/footnote.xsl,1.23 - Robert Stayton
Add qandaset
to
root.elements.
Modified: fo/docbook.xsl,1.41 - Robert Stayton

footnotes to format differently from regular
footnotes.
Modified: fo/param.ent,1.96; fo/param.xweb,1.109 - Robert Stayton
Refactored table
templates to unify their processing and support all options in
all types. Now table
and informaltable
, in
both Cals and Html markup, use the same templates where possible,
and all support pgwide, rotation, and floats. There is also a
placeholder table
.container template to
support wrapping a table
in a layout table
,
so the XEP table
title
"continued"
extension can be more easily implemented.
Modified: fo/formal.xsl,1.52; fo/htmltbl.xsl,1.9; fo/table.xsl,1.48 - Robert Stayton
Added new attribute set

figure
, example, and equation
(the latter
two via a dbfo pgwide="1" processing
instruction).
Modified: fo/formal.xsl,1.51 - Robert Stayton
Add pgwide.properties attribute-set.
Modified: fo/param.ent,1.94; fo/param.xweb,1.107 - Robert Stayton
Added refclass
.suppress
param.
If the value of refclass
.suppress is
non-zero, then display refclass
contents is suppressed
in output. Affects HTML and FO output
only.
Modified: fo/param.ent,1.93; fo/param.xweb,1.106; html/param.ent,1.90; html/param.xweb,1.99; params/refclass.suppress.xml,1.1 - Michael(tm) Smith
Improved support for
task
subelements
Modified: fo/task.xsl,1.3; html/task.xsl,1.3 - Jirka Kosek

and the other begins. Closes #1213264.
Modified: fo/synop.xsl,1.18 - Michael(tm) Smith
Made handling of paramdef/parameter in FO output consistent with that in HTML and manpages output. Closes #1213259.
Modified: fo/synop.xsl,1.17 - Michael(tm) Smith
Made handling of
Refnamediv
consistent with formatting in HTML
and manpages output; specifically, changed so that
Refname
(comma-separated list of multiple instances
found) is used (instead of Refentrytitle
as
previously), then em-dash, then the Refpurpose
. Closes
#1212562.
Modified: fo/refentry.xsl,1.30 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added output of
Releaseinfo
to recto titlepage ("copyright
"
page) for Book
in FO output. This makes it consistent
with HTML output. Closes #1327034. Thanks to Paul DuBois for
reporting.
Modified: fo/titlepage.templates.xml,1.28 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added condition for setting
block-progression-dimension.minimum on table-row, instead of
height, when fop1.extensions
is
non-zero. For an explanation of the reason for the change,
see
: http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/Troubleshooting/CommonLogMessages
Modified: fo/pagesetup.xsl,1.59 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added new
refclass
.suppress param for suppressing display
of Refclass
in HTML and FO output. Did not add it to
manpages because manpages stylesheet is currently just silently
ignoring Refclass
anyway. Closes request
#1461065. Thanks to Davor Ocelic (docelic) for
reporting.
Modified: fo/refentry.xsl,1.29; html/refentry.xsl,1.23 - Michael(tm) Smith

Added index
.separator
named template to compute the separator punctuation based on
locale.
Modified: fo/autoidx.xsl,1.36 - Robert Stayton
Added support for link
,
olink

allows it).
Modified: fo/synop.xsl,1.15; html/synop.xsl,1.19 - Michael(tm) Smith
Support date
as an
inline
Modified: fo/inline.xsl,1.43; html/inline.xsl,1.46 - Norman Walsh

Generate localized
title
for Refsynopsisdiv
if no
appropriate Title
descendant found in source. Closes
#1212398. This change makes behavior for the Synopsis
title
consistent with the behavior of HTML and
manpages output.
Also, added
xsl:use-attribute-sets="normal.para
.spacing" to
block generated for Cmdsynopsis
output. Previously,
that block had no spacing at all specified, which resulted it
being crammed up to closely to the Synopsis
head.
Modified: fo/refentry.xsl,1.28; fo/synop.xsl,1.13 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added parameters to support
localization of index
item punctuation.
Modified: fo/autoidx.xsl,1.35 - Robert Stayton
Added
index.number.separator
,
index.range.separator
,
and index.term.separator
parameters to
support localization of punctuation in index
entries.
Modified: fo/param.ent,1.89; fo/param.xweb,1.102 - Robert Stayton
Added "Cross References"
section
in HTML doc (for consistency with the FO
doc). Also, moved the existing FO "Cross
References" section
to follow the "Linking"
section
.
Modified: fo/param.xweb,1.101; html/param.xweb,1.95 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added ID attribues to all
Reference
elements (e.g., id="tables" for the doc for
section
on Table
params). So pages for
all subsections of ref docs now have stable filenames instead
of arbitrary generated filenames.
Modified: fo/param.xweb,1.100; html/param.xweb,1.94 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added two new parameters for
handling of multi-term
varlistentry
elements:
variablelist.term.break.after
:
When the variablelist.term.break.after
is
non-zero, it will generate a line break after each
term
multi-term
varlistentry
.
variablelist.term.separator
:
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. The default
is ", " (a comma followed by a space). To suppress rendering of
the separator, set the value of
variablelist.term.separator
to the empty
string ("").
These parameters are primarily intended to be useful if you have multi-term varlistentries that have long terms.
Closes #1306676. Thanks to Sam Steingold for providing an example "lots of long terms" doc that demonstrated the value of having these options.
Also, added
normalize-space() call to processing of each
term
.
This change affects all output formats (HTML, PDF, manpages). The default behavior should pretty much remain the same as before, but it is possible (as always) that the change may introduce some new bugginess.
Modified: fo/lists.xsl,1.62; fo/param.ent,1.88; fo/param.xweb,1.99; html/lists.xsl,1.48; html/param.ent,1.86; html/param.xweb,1.93; manpages/lists.xsl,1.22; manpages/param.ent,1.14; manpages/param.xweb,1.16; params/variablelist.term.break.after.xml,1.1; params/variablelist.term.separator.xml,1.1 - Michael(tm) Smith

sidebar
.
Modified: fo/titlepage.templates.xml,1.27 - Robert Stayton
Implemented RFE #1292615.
Added bunch of new parameters (attribute sets)
that affect list presentation: list.block.properties,
itemizedlist
.properties, orderedlist
.properties,
itemizedlist
.label
.properties and
orderedlist
.label
.properties. Default behaviour
of stylesheets has not been changed but further customizations will be
much more easier.

Implemented RFE #1242092.
You can enable crop marks in your document by
setting crop.marks=1 and xep.extensions=1. Appearance of crop
marks can be controlled by parameters
crop.mark.bleed
(6pt),
crop.mark.offset
(24pt) and
crop.mark.width
(0.5pt).
Also there is new named template called user-xep-pis. You can overwrite it in order to produce some PIs that can control XEP as described in http://www.renderx.com/reference.html#Output_Formats
Modified: fo/docbook.xsl,1.36; fo/param.ent,1.86; fo/param.xweb,1.97; fo/xep.xsl,1.23; params/crop.mark.bleed.xml,1.1; params/crop.mark.offset.xml,1.1; params/crop.mark.width.xml,1.1; params/crop.marks.xml,1.1 - Jirka Kosek

Modified: html/pi.xsl,1.9 - Robert Stayton
Added new parameter
chunk.tocs.and.lots
.has.title
which
controls presence of title
in a separate chunk with
ToC/LoT. Disabling title
can be very useful if you are
generating frameset output (well, yes those frames, but some customers
really want them ;-).
Modified: html/chunk-code.xsl,1.15; html/param.ent,1.93; html/param.xweb,1.102; params/chunk.tocs.and.lots.has.title.xml,1.1 - Jirka Kosek

, example, equation
and informalfigure
, informalexample
, and
informalequation
.
Modified: html/formal.xsl,1.22 - Robert Stayton
Added the
autotoc.label
.in.hyperlink param.
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.
Closes patch #1065868. Thanks to anatoly techtonik for the patch.
Modified: html/autotoc.xsl,1.36; html/param.ent,1.92; html/param.xweb,1.101; params/autotoc.label.in.hyperlink.xml,1.1 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added two new params:
html.head.legalnotice
.link
.types
and html.head.legalnotice
.link
.multiple.
If
the value of the generate.legalnotice.link
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="copyright
"
href="ln-id2524073.html" title="Legal Notice">
Closes #1476450. Thanks to Sam Steingold.

Improved support for
task
subelements
Modified: fo/task.xsl,1.3; html/task.xsl,1.3 - Jirka Kosek
Added new

ignoring Refclass
anyway. Closes request
#1461065. Thanks to Davor Ocelic (docelic) for
reporting.

time to touch extensions code, so code is here to be enabled when
extension is fixed also.
Modified: html/xref.xsl,1.56 - Jirka Kosek
Added 3 parameters for overriding
gentext for index

Modified: html/param.ent,1.89; html/param.xweb,1.98 - Robert Stayton
Added parameters to support
localization of index
item punctuation. Added
index
.separator named template to compute
the separator punctuation based on
locale.
Modified: html/autoidx.xsl,1.27 - Robert Stayton
Added a <div class="{$class}-contents"> wrapper around output of contents of all formal objects. Also, added an optional <br class="{class}-break"/> linebreak after all formal objects.
WARNING: Because this change places an additional
DIV between the DIV wrapper for the equation
and the
equation
contents, it may break some existing CSS
stylesheets that have been created with the assumption that there
would never be an intervening DIV there.
The following is
an example of what Equation
output looks like as a
result of the changes described above.
<div
class="equation
"> <a name="three"
id="three"></a>
<p
class="title
"><b>(1.3)</b></p>
<div class="equation-contents"> <span
class="mathphrase
">1+1=3</span>
</div> </div><br
class="equation-break">
Rationale: These changes allow
CSS control of the placement of the formal-object
title
relative to the formal-object
contents. For example, using the CSS "float" property
enables the title
and contents to be rendered on the
same line. Example stylesheet:
.equation
{ margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px; }
.equation-contents { float: left; }
.equation
.title
{ margin-top: 0;
float: right; margin-right: 200px; }
.equation
.title
b { font-weight:
normal; }
.equation-break { clear: both; }
Note that the purpose of the ".equation-break" class is to provide a way to clear off the floats.
If you want
to instead have the equation
title
rendered to
the left of the equation
contents, you can do
something like this:
.equation
{
margin-top: 20px; width: 300px; margin-bottom: 20px;
} .equation-contents { float: right; }
.equation
.title
{ margin-top: 0;
float: left; margin-right: 200px; }
.equation
.title
b { font-weight:
normal; }
.equation-break { clear: both; }

Added a chunker.output.quiet top-level parameter so that the chunker can be made quiet by default
Modified: html/chunker.xsl,1.26 - Norman Walsh
Added support for link

within OO
Classsynopsis
and children. (Because DocBook NG/5
allows it).
Modified: fo/synop.xsl,1.15; html/synop.xsl,1.19 - Michael(tm) Smith
New parameter:
id.warnings
. If non-zero, warnings are
generated for titled objects that don't have titles. True by default;
I wonder if this will be too aggressive?
Modified: html/biblio.xsl,1.25; html/component.xsl,1.27; html/division.xsl,1.11; html/formal.xsl,1.19; html/glossary.xsl,1.20; html/html.xsl,1.13; html/index.xsl,1.16; html/param.ent,1.88; html/param.xweb,1.97; html/refentry.xsl,1.22; html/sections.xsl,1.30; params/id.warnings.xml,1.1 - Norman Walsh
If the
keep.relative.image.uris
parameter is true,
don't use the absolute URI
(as calculated from xml:base) in
the img src attribute, us the value the author
specified. Note that we still have to calculate the absolute
filename
for use in the image intrinsics
extension.
Modified: html/graphics.xsl,1.56 - Norman Walsh
Support date

inline
Modified: fo/inline.xsl,1.43; html/inline.xsl,1.46 - Norman Walsh
Added new parameter
keep.relative.image.uris
Modified: fo/param.ent,1.91; fo/param.xweb,1.104; html/param.ent,1.87; html/param.xweb,1.96; params/keep.relative.image.uris.xml,1.1 - Norman Walsh
Added two new parameters for
handling of multi-term
varlistentry
elements:
variablelist.term.break.after
:
When the variablelist.term.break.after
is
non-zero, it will generate a line break after each
term
multi-term
varlistentry
.
variablelist.term.separator
:
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. The default
is ", " (a comma followed by a space). To suppress rendering of
the separator, set the value of
variablelist.term.separator
to the empty
string ("").
These parameters are primarily intended to be useful if you have multi-term varlistentries that have long terms.
Closes #1306676. Thanks to Sam Steingold for providing an example "lots of long terms" doc that demonstrated the value of having these options.
Also, added
normalize-space() call to processing of each
term
.
This change affects all output formats (HTML, PDF, manpages). The default behavior should pretty much remain the same as before, but it is possible (as always) that the change may introduce some new bugginess.
Modified: fo/lists.xsl,1.62; fo/param.ent,1.88; fo/param.xweb,1.99; html/lists.xsl,1.48; html/param.ent,1.86; html/param.xweb,1.93; manpages/lists.xsl,1.22; manpages/param.ent,1.14; manpages/param.xweb,1.16; params/variablelist.term.break.after.xml,1.1; params/variablelist.term.separator.xml,1.1 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added "wrapper-name" param to
inline.charseq named template, enabling it to output inlines
other than just "span". Acronym
and Abbrev
templates now use inline.charseq to output HTML
"acronym
" and "abbr" elements (instead of
"span"). Closes #1305468. Thanks to Sam Steingold for suggesting
the change.
Modified: html/inline.xsl,1.45 - Michael(tm) Smith
The following changes have been made to the
manpages
code
since the 1.69.1 release.
Added the following params:
- man.indent.width (string-valued) - man.indent.refsect (boolean) - man.indent.blurbs (boolean) - man.indent.lists (boolean) - man.indent.verbatims (boolean)
Note that in earlier snapshots, man.indent.width was named man.indentation.default.value and the boolean params had names like man.indentation.*.adjust. Also the man.indent.blurbs param was called man.indentation.authors.adjust (or something).
The behavior now is: If the value of a particular man.indent.* boolean param is non-zero, the corresponding contents (refsect*, list items, authorblurb/personblurb, vervatims) are displayed with a left margin indented by a width equal to the value of man.indent.width.
Modified: params/man.indent.blurbs.xml,1.1; manpages/docbook.xsl,1.74; manpages/info.xsl,1.20; manpages/lists.xsl,1.30; manpages/other.xsl,1.20; manpages/param.ent,1.22; manpages/param.xweb,1.24; manpages/refentry.xsl,1.14; params/man.indent.lists.xml,1.1; params/man.indent.refsect.xml,1.1; params/man.indent.verbatims.xml,1.1; params/man.indent.width.xml,1.1 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added
man.table
.footnotes.divider param.
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
.
Modified: manpages/docbook.xsl,1.73; manpages/links.xsl,1.6; manpages/param.ent,1.21; manpages/param.xweb,1.23; params/man.table.footnotes.divider.xml,1.1 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added the
man.output.in.separate.dir,
man.output.base.dir
,
and man.output.subdirs.enabled parameters.
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 man.output.in.separate.dir is zero, man-page files are
not output in a separate
directory.
Modified: manpages/docbook.xsl,1.72; manpages/param.ent,1.20; manpages/param.xweb,1.22; params/man.output.base.dir.xml,1.1; params/man.output.in.separate.dir.xml,1.1; params/man.output.subdirs.enabled.xml,1.1 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added
man.font.table
.headings and
man.font.table

params, for
controlling font in table
headings and
titles.

Added
man.font.funcsynopsisinfo
and
man.font.funcprototype
params, for specifying the roff
font (for example, BI, B, I) for funcsynopsisinfo
and
funcprototype
output.
Modified: manpages/block.xsl,1.19; manpages/docbook.xsl,1.69; manpages/param.ent,1.18; manpages/param.xweb,1.20; manpages/synop.xsl,1.29; manpages/table.xsl,1.21; params/man.font.funcprototype.xml,1.1; params/man.font.funcsynopsisinfo.xml,1.1 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added
man.segtitle
.suppress param.
If the value of
man.segtitle
.suppress is non-zero, then display
of segtitle
contents is suppressed in
output.
Modified: manpages/docbook.xsl,1.68; manpages/param.ent,1.17; manpages/param.xweb,1.19; params/man.segtitle.suppress.xml,1.1 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added
man.output.manifest
.enabled and
man.output.manifest.filename
params.
If
man.output.manifest
.enabled is non-zero, a list
of filenames for man pages generated by the stylesheet
transformation is written to the file named by
man.output.manifest
.filename

Added
refentry
.meta.get.quietly param.
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.
NOTE: 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.

Changed names of all boolean indentation params to man.indent.* Also discarded individual man.indent.*.value params and switched to just using a common man.indent.width param (3n by default).

Added boolean man.output.in.separate.dir param, to control whether or not man files are output in separate directory.
Modified: manpages/docbook.xsl,1.65; manpages/utility.xsl,1.14 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added options for controlling indentation of verbatim output. Controlled through the man.indentation.verbatims.adjust and man.indentation.verbatims.value params. Closes #1242997
Modified: manpages/block.xsl,1.15; manpages/docbook.xsl,1.64 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added options for controlling
indentation in lists and in *blurb output in the AUTHORS
section
. Controlled through
the man.indentation.lists.adjust,
man.indentation.lists.value, man.indentation.authors.adjust, and
man.indentation.authors.value parameters. Default is 3 characters
(instead of the roff default of 8 characters). Closes
#1449369.
Also, removed the indent that was being set on
informalexample
outuput. I will instead add an option
for indenting verbatims, which I think is what the
informalexample
indent was intended
for originally.
Modified: manpages/block.xsl,1.14; manpages/docbook.xsl,1.63; manpages/info.xsl,1.18; manpages/lists.xsl,1.28 - Michael(tm) Smith
Changed line-spacing call before
synopfragment
to use ".sp -1n" ("n" units specified)
instead of plain ".sp -1"
Modified: manpages/synop.xsl,1.28 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added support for writing man
files into a specific output directory and into appropriate
subdirectories within that output directory. Controlled through
the man.base.dir
parameter (similar to the
base.dir
support in the HTML stylesheet) and
the man.subdirs.enabled parameter, which automatically determines
the name of an appropriate subdir (for example, man/man7,
man/man1, etc.) based on the section
number/manvolnum
of the source Refentry
.
Closes #1255036 and #1170317. Thanks to Denis Bradford for the original feature request, and to Costin Stroie for submitting a patch that was very helpful in implementing the support.

Refined XPath statements and
notification messages for refentry
metadata
handling.
Modified: common/common.xsl,1.59; common/refentry.xsl,1.14; manpages/docbook.xsl,1.61; manpages/other.xsl,1.17 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added support for
copyright
and legalnotice
. The manpages
stylesheets now output a COPYRIGHT
section
,
after the AUTHORS section
, if a copyright
or legalnotice
is found in the source. The
section
contains the copyright
contents followed
by the legalnotice
contents. Closes
#1450209.
Modified: manpages/docbook.xsl,1.59; manpages/info.xsl,1.17 - Michael(tm) Smith
Drastically reworked all of the
XPath expressions used in refentry
metadata gathering
-- completely removed $parentinfo and turned $info into a set of
nodes that includes the *info contents of the Refentry
plus the *info contents all all of its ancestor elements. The
basic XPath expression now used throughout is (using the example
of checking for a date
):
(($info[//date])[last()]/date)[1].
That selects the "last"
*info/date date
in document order -- that is, the one
eitther on the Refentry
itself or on the
closest ancestor to the Refentry
.
It's likely this change may break some things; may need to pick up some pieces later.
Also, changed the default value for the
man.th.extra2.max.length
from 40 to
30.

Added support for DocBook 5 namespace-stripping in manpages stylesheet. Closes request #1210692.
Modified: common/common.xsl,1.56; manpages/docbook.xsl,1.57 - Michael(tm) Smith
Fixed handling of table
footnotes. With this checkin, the table
support in the
manpages stylesheet is now basically feature complete. So this
change closes request #619532, "No support for tables" -- the
oldest currently open manpages feature request, submitted by Ben
Secrest (blsecres) on 2002-10-07. Congratulations to me [patting
myself on the back].
Modified: manpages/block.xsl,1.11; manpages/docbook.xsl,1.55; manpages/table.xsl,1.15 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added handling for
table
titles. Also fixed handling of nested tables;
nest tables are now "extracted" and displayed just after their
parent tables.
Modified: manpages/docbook.xsl,1.54; manpages/table.xsl,1.14 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added option for turning off bold
formatting in Funcsynopsis
. Boldface formatting in
function
synopsis
is mandated in the
man(7) man page and is used almost universally in existing man
pages. Despite that, it really does look like crap to have an
entire Funcsynopsis
output in bold, so I added params
for turning off the bold formatting and/or replacing it with a
different roff special font (e.g., "RI" for alternating
roman/italic instead of the default "BI" for alternating
bold/italic). The new params
are "man.funcprototype
.font" and
"man.funcsynopsisinfo
.font". To be documented
later.
Closes #1452247. Thanks to Joe Orton for the feature request.
Modified: params/man.string.subst.map.xml,1.16; manpages/block.xsl,1.10; manpages/docbook.xsl,1.51; manpages/inline.xsl,1.16; manpages/synop.xsl,1.27 - Michael(tm) Smith
Use AUTHORS instead of
AUTHOR
if we have multiple people to attribute. Also,
fixed checking such that we generate
author
section
even if we don't have an
author
(as long as there is at least one other
person/entity we can put in the
section
). Also adjusted assembly of content for
Author
metainfo field such that we now not only use
author
, but try to find a "best match" if we can't
find an author
name to put there.
Closes #1233592. Thanks to Sam Steingold for the request.
Modified: manpages/info.xsl,1.12 - Michael(tm) Smith
Changes for request #1243027,
"Impove handling of AUTHOR
section
." This
adds support for Collab
, Corpauthor, Corpcredt,
Orgname
, Publishername
, and
Publisher
. Also adds support for output
of Affiliation
and its children, and support for using
gentext strings for auto-attributing roles (Author
,
Editor
, Publisher
, Translator, etc.). Also
did a lot of code cleanup and modularization of all the
AUTHOR
handling code. And fixed a bug that was causing
Author
info
to not be picked up correctly
for metainfo comment we embed in man-page
source.
Modified: manpages/info.xsl,1.11 - Michael(tm) Smith
Support bold output for
"emphasis
remap='B'". (because Eric Raymond's
doclifter(1) tool converts groff source marked up with ".B"
request or "\fB" escapes to DocBook "emphasis
remap='B'".)
Modified: manpages/inline.xsl,1.14 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added support for
Segmentedlist
. Details: Output is tabular, with no
option for "list" type output. Output for Segtitle
elements can be supressed by
setting man.segtitle
.suppress. If Segtitle
content is output, it is rendered in italic type (not bold
because not all terminals support bold and so italic ensures the
stand out on those terminals). Extra space (.sp line) at end of
table
code ensures that it gets handled correctly in
the case where its source is the child of a Para
.
Closes feature-request #1400097. Thanks to Daniel Leidert for the
patch and push, and to Alastair Rankine for filing the original
feature request.
Modified: manpages/lists.xsl,1.23; manpages/utility.xsl,1.10 - Michael(tm) Smith
Improved handling or Author/Editor/Othercredit.
Reworked content of (non-visible) comment added at top of each page (metadata stuff).

Added two new parameters for
handling of multi-term
varlistentry
elements:
variablelist.term.break.after
:
When the variablelist.term.break.after
is
non-zero, it will generate a line break after each
term
multi-term
varlistentry
.
variablelist.term.separator
:
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. The default
is ", " (a comma followed by a space). To suppress rendering of
the separator, set the value of
variablelist.term.separator
to the empty
string ("").
These parameters are primarily intended to be useful if you have multi-term varlistentries that have long terms.
Closes #1306676. Thanks to Sam Steingold for providing an example "lots of long terms" doc that demonstrated the value of having these options.
Also, added
normalize-space() call to processing of each

Modified: params/biblioentry.properties.xml,1.1 - Robert Stayton
Added new parameter
chunk.tocs.and.lots
.has.title
which
controls presence of title
in a separate chunk with
ToC/LoT. Disabling title
can be very useful if you are
generating frameset output (well, yes those frames, but some customers
really want them ;-).

Added the
autotoc.label
.in.hyperlink param.
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.

Added two new params:
html.head.legalnotice
.link
.types
and html.head.legalnotice
.link
.multiple.
If
the value of the generate.legalnotice.link
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="copyright
"
href="ln-id2524073.html" title="Legal Notice">

Note that in earlier snapshots, man.indent.width was named man.indentation.default.value and the boolean params had names like man.indentation.*.adjust. Also the man.indent.blurbs param was called man.indentation.authors.adjust (or something).
The behavior now is: If the value of a particular man.indent.* boolean param is non-zero, the corresponding contents (refsect*, list items, authorblurb/personblurb, vervatims) are displayed with a left margin indented by a width equal to the value of man.indent.width.

man.output.in.separate.dir,
man.output.base.dir
,
and man.output.subdirs.enabled parameters.
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 man.output.in.separate.dir is zero, man-page files are
not output in a separate
directory.

params, for specifying the roff
font (for example, BI, B, I) for funcsynopsisinfo
and
funcprototype
output.

Modified: params/refclass.suppress.xml,1.3 - Michael(tm) Smith
Added
man.segtitle
.suppress param.
If the value of

Added
man.output.manifest
.enabled and
man.output.manifest.filename
params.
If
man.output.manifest
.enabled is non-zero, a list
of filenames for man pages generated by the stylesheet
transformation is written to the file named by

in output. Affects HTML and FO output
only.

Added
refentry
.meta.get.quietly param.
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.
NOTE: 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.

Added support for "software" and
"sectdesc" class values on refmiscinfo
; "software" is
treated identically to "source", and "setdesc" is treated
identically to "manual".
Modified: common/refentry.xsl,1.10; params/man.th.extra2.max.length.xml,1.3; params/refentry.source.name.profile.xml,1.4 - Michael(tm) Smith
Drastically reworked all of the
XPath expressions used in refentry
metadata gathering
-- completely removed $parentinfo and turned $info into a set of
nodes that includes the *info contents of the Refentry
plus the *info contents all all of its ancestor elements. The
basic XPath expression now used throughout is (using the example
of checking for a date
):
(($info[//date])[last()]/date)[1].
That selects the "last"
*info/date date
in document order -- that is, the one
eitther on the Refentry
itself or on the
closest ancestor to the Refentry
.
It's likely this change may break some things; may need to pick up some pieces later.
Also, changed the default value for the
man.th.extra2.max.length
from 40 to
30.

Added option for turning off bold
formatting in Funcsynopsis
. Boldface formatting in
function
synopsis
is mandated in the
man(7) man page and is used almost universally in existing man
pages. Despite that, it really does look like crap to have an
entire Funcsynopsis
output in bold, so I added params
for turning off the bold formatting and/or replacing it with a
different roff special font (e.g., "RI" for alternating
roman/italic instead of the default "BI" for alternating
bold/italic). The new params
are "man.funcprototype
.font" and
"man.funcsynopsisinfo
.font". To be documented
later.
Closes #1452247. Thanks to Joe Orton for the feature request.

Added two new parameters for
handling of multi-term
varlistentry
elements:
variablelist.term.break.after
:
When the variablelist.term.break.after
is
non-zero, it will generate a line break after each
term
multi-term
varlistentry
.
variablelist.term.separator
:
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. The default
is ", " (a comma followed by a space). To suppress rendering of
the separator, set the value of
variablelist.term.separator
to the empty
string ("").
These parameters are primarily intended to be useful if you have multi-term varlistentries that have long terms.
Closes #1306676. Thanks to Sam Steingold for providing an example "lots of long terms" doc that demonstrated the value of having these options.
Also, added
normalize-space() call to processing of each
term
.
This change affects all output formats (HTML, PDF, manpages). The default behavior should pretty much remain the same as before, but it is possible (as always) that the change may introduce some new bugginess.

The following changes have been made to the
profiling
code
since the 1.69.1 release.
Profiling now works together with namespace stripping (V5 documents). Namespace striping should work with all stylesheets named profile-, even if they are not supporting namespace stripping in a non-profiling variant.
Modified: profiling/profile-mode.xsl,1.4; profiling/xsl2profile.xsl,1.7 - Jirka Kosek
Moved profiling stage out of templates. This make possible to reuse profiled content by several templates and still maintaing node indentity (needed for example for HTML Help where content is processed multiple times).
I don't know why this was not on the top level before. Maybe some XSLT processors choked on it. I hope this will be OK now.

This release is a minor bug-fix update to the 1.69.0
release. Along with bug fixes, it includes one
configuration-parameter change: The default value of the
annotation.support
parameter is now
0
(off). The reason for that change is that
there have been reports that annotation
handling is
causing a significant performance degradation in processing of
large documents with xsltproc.
The release includes major feature changes, particularly in the manpages stylesheets, as well as a large number of bug fixes.
As with all DocBook Project “dot zero” releases, this is an experimental release .
This release adds localizations for the following languages: Albanian, Amharic, Azerbaijani, Hindi, Irish (Gaelic), Gujarati, Kannada, Mongolian, Oriya, Punjabi, Tagalog, Tamil, and Welsh.
Added support for specifying number format for auto
labels for chapter
, appendix
,
part
, and preface
. Contolled with the
appendix.autolabel
,
chapter.autolabel
,
part.autolabel
, and
preface.autolabel
parameters.
Added basic support for biblioref
cross
referencing.
Added support for align
on caption
in mediaobject
.
Added support for processing documents that use the DocBook V5 namespace.
Added support for termdef
and
mathphrase
.
EXPERIMENTAL: Incorporated the Slides and Website
stylesheets into the DocBook XSL stylesheets package. So,
for example, Website documents can now be processed using
the following URI for the driver Website
tabular.xsl
file:
http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/website/tabular.xsl
A procedure
without a title
is
now treated as an “informal” procedure (meaning
that it is not added to any generated “list of
procedures” and has no affect on numbering of
generated labels for other procedures).
docname
is no longer added to
olink
when pointing to a root element.
Added support for generation of choice separator in
inline simplelist. This enables auto-generation of an
appropriate localized “choice separator” (for
example, “and” or “or”) before the
final item in an inline simplelist
.
To indicate that you want a choice separator
generated for a particular list, you need to put a processing
instruction (PI) of the form
<?dbchoice choice="foo"?>
as a
child of the list. For example:
<para>Choose from ONE and ONLY ONE of the following: <simplelist type="inline"> <?dbchoice choice="or" ?> <member>A</member> <member>B</member> <member>C</member>.</simplelist></para>
Output (for English):
Choose from ONE and only ONE of the following choices: A, B, or C.
As a temporary workaround for the fact that most of the
DocBook non-English locale files don't have a localization for
the word “or”, you can put in a literal string to
be used; example for French: <?dbchoice choice="ou">
. That is, use
“ou” instead of “or”.
Added content-type
property to
external-graphic
element, based on
imagedata
format
attribute.
Added support for generating
<rx:meta-field creator="$VERSION"/>
field for XEP output. This makes the DocBook XSL
stylesheet version information available through the
menu in Acrobat
Reader and other PDF viewers.
Trademark symbol handling made consistent with
handling of same in HTML stylesheets. Prior to this change,
if you processed a document that contained no value for the
class
attribute on the
trademark
element, the HTML stylesheets would
default to rendering a superscript TM
symbol after the trademark
contents,
but the FO stylesheets would render nothing.
Added support for generating XEP bookmarks for
refentry
.
Added support for HTML markup table
border
attribute, applied to each
table cell.
The table.width
template can now
sum column specs if none use %
or
*
.
Added fox:destination
extension
inside fox:outline
to support linking to
internal destinations.
Added support for customizing
abstract
with property sets. Controlled
with the abstract.properties
and
abstract.title.properties
parameters.
Add footnote
s in table
title to
table footnote set, and add support for table footnotes to
HTML table markup.
Added support for itemizedlist
symbol
none
.
Implemented the new
graphical.admonition.properties
and
nongraphical.admonition.properties
attribute sets.
Added id
to
formalpara
and some other blocks that were
missing it.
Changed the anchor template to output
fo:inline
instead of
fo:wrapper
.
Added support for toc.max.depth
parameter.
Added a first cut at support in HTML output for
DocBook 5 style annotation
s. Controlled using the
annotation.support
parameter, and
implemented using JavaScript and CSS styling. For more
details, see the documentation for the
annotation.js
,
annotation.css
,
annotation.graphic.open
, and
annotation.graphic.close
parameters.
Generate client-side image map for
imageobjectco
with areas using
calspair
units
Added support for <?img.src.path?>
PI.
Added support for passing
img.src.path
to DocBook Java XSLT
image extensions when appropriate. Controlled using the
graphicsize.use.img.src.path
parameter.
Added support for (not
valid for DocBook 4) xlink:href
on area
and (not valid for DocBook 4)
alt
in area
.
Added new parameter
default.table.frame
to control table
framing if there is no frame
attribute on a table.
Added initial, experimental support for generating
content for the HTML title
attribute from
content of the alt
element. This change adds
support for the following inline elements only (none of them
are block elements):

Added support for chunking revhistory
into
separate file (similar to the support for doing same with
legalnotice
). Patch from Thomas
Schraitle. Controlled through new
generate.revhistory.link
parameter.
l10n.xsl: Made language codes RFC compliant. Added a
new boolean config parameter,
l10n.lang.value.rfc.compliant
. If it
is non-zero (the default), any underscore in a language code
will be converted to a hyphen in HTML output. If it is zero,
the language code will be left as-is.
This release closes out 44 manpages stylesheet bug reports and feature requests. It adds more than 35 new configuration parameters for controlling aspects of man-page output -- including hyphenation and justification, handling of links, conversion of Unicode characters, and contents of man-page headers and footers.
New options for globally disabling/enabling
hyphenation and justification:
man.justify
and
man.hyphenate
.
Note that the default for the both of those is zero (off), because justified text looks good only when it is also hyphenated; to quote the “Hyphenation” node from the groff info page:
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.
The problem is that groff can end up hyphenating a lot of things that you don't want hyphenated (variable names and command names, for example). Keeping both justification and hyphenation disabled 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. 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.
Added parameters for controlling hyphenation of
computer inlines, filenames, and URLs. By default, even when
hyphenation is enabled (globally), hyphenation is now
suppressed for "computer inlines" (currently, just
classname
, constant
, envar
,
errorcode
, option
,
replaceable
, userinput
,
type
, and varname
, and for
filenames
, and for URLs from link
. It
can be (re)enabled using the
man.hyphenate.computer.inlines
,
man.hyphenate.filenames
, and
man.hyphenate.urls parameters
.
Implemented a new system for replacing Unicode characters. There are two parts to the new system: a “string substitution map” for doing “essential” replacements, and a “character map” that can optionally be disabled and enabled.
The new system fixes all open bugs that had to do with literal Unicode numbered entities such as “ and ” showing up in output, and greatly expands the ability of the stylesheets to generate “good” roff equivalents for Unicode symbols and special characters.
Here are some details...
The previous manpages mechanism for replacing Unicode
symbols and special characters with roff equivalents (the
replace-entities
template) was not
scalable and not complete. The mechanism handled a somewhat
arbitrary selection of less than 20 or so Unicode
characters. But there are potentially more than
800 Unicode special characters that
have some groff equivalent they can be mapped to. And there
are about 34 symbols in the Latin-1 (ISO-8859-1) block
alone. Users might reasonably expect that if they include
any of those Latin-1 characters in their DocBook source
documents, they will get correctly converted to known roff
equivalents in output.
In addition to those common symbols, certain users may have a need to use symbols from other Unicode blocks. Say, somebody who is documenting an application related to math might need to use a bunch of symbols from the “Mathematical Operators” Unicode block (there are about 65 characters in that block that have reasonable roff equivalents). Or somebody else might really like Dingbats -- such as the checkmark character -- and so might use a bunch of things from the “Dingbat” block (141 characters in that that have roff equivalents or that can at least be “degraded” somewhat gracefully into roff).
So, the old replace-entities
mechanism was replaced with a completely different mechanism
that is based on use of two “maps”: a
“substitution map” and a “character
map” (the latter in a format compliant with the XSLT
2.0 spec and therefore completely “forward
compatible” with XSLT 2.0).
The substitution map is controlled through the
man.string.subst.map
parameter, and
is used to replace things like the backslash character
(which needs special handling to prevent it from being
interpreted as a roff escape). The substitution map cannot
be disabled, because disabling it will cause the output to
be broken. However, you can add to it and change it if
needed.
The “character map” mechanism, on the other hand, can be completely disabled. It is enabled by default, and, by default, does replacement of all Latin-1 symbols, along with most special spaces, dashes, and quotes (about 75 characters by default). Also, you can optionally enable a “full” character map that provides support for converting all 800 or so of the characters that have some reasonable groff equivalent.
The character-map mechanism is controlled through the following parameters:
man.charmap.enabled
turns character-map support on/off
man.charmap.use.subset
specifies that a subset of the character map is used instead of the full map
man.charmap.subset.profile
specifies profile of character-map subset
man.charmap.uri
specifies an alternate character map to use instead of the “standard” character map provided in the distribution
Implemented out-of-line handling of display of URLs
for links (currently, only for ulink
). This gives
you three choices for handling of links:
Number and list links. Each link is numbered inline, with a number in square brackets preceding the link contents, and a numbered list of all links is added to the end of the document.
Only list links. Links are not numbered, but an (unnumbered) list of links is added to the end of the document.
Suppress links. Don't number links and don't add any list of links to the end of the document.
You can also choose whether links should be underlined. The
default is “the works” -- list, number, and
underline links. You can use the
man.links.list.enabled
,
man.links.are.numbered
, and
man.links.are.underlined
parameters
to change the defaults. The default heading for the link
list is REFERENCES. You can be change that using the
man.links.list.heading
parameter.
Changed default output encoding to UTF-8. This does not mean that man pages are output in raw UTF-8, because the character map is applied before final output, causing all UTF-8 characters covered in the map to be converted to roff equivalents.
Added support for processing refsect3
and
formalpara
and nested refsection
elements, down to any arbitrary level of nesting.
Output of the NAME
and
SYNOPSIS
and AUTHOR
headings and the headings for admonitions (note
,
caution
, etc.) are no longer hard-coded for
English. Instead, headings are generated for those in the
correct locale (just as the FO and HTML stylesheets
do).
Re-worked mechanism for assembling page
headers/footers (the contents of the .TH
macro “title line”).
Here are some details...
All man pages contain a .TH
roff
macro whose contents are used for rendering the “title
line” displayed in the header and footer of each
page. Here are a couple of examples of real-world man pages
that have useful page headers/footers:
gtk-options(7) GTK+ User's Manual gtk-options(7) <-- header GTK+ 1.2 2003-10-20 gtk-options(7) <-- footer svgalib(7) Svgalib User Manual svgalib(7) <-- header Svgalib 1.4.1 16 December 1999 svgalib(7) <-- footer
And here are the terms with which the
groff_man(7)
man page refers to the
various parts of the header/footer:
title(section) extra3 title(section) <- header extra2 extra1 title(section) <- footer
Or, using the names with which the man(7)
man page refers to those same fields:
title(section) manual title(section) <- page header source date title(section) <- page footer
The easiest way to control the contents of those
fields is to mark up your refentry
content like
the following (note that this is a “minimal”
example).
<refentry> <info> <date>2003-10-20</date> </info> <refmeta> <refentrytitle>gtk-options</refentrytitle> <manvolnum>7</manvolnum> <refmiscinfo class="source-name">GTK+</refmiscinfo> <refmiscinfo class="version">1.2</refmiscinfo> <refmiscinfo class="manual">GTK+ User's Manual</refmiscinfo> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>gtk-options</refname> <refpurpose>Standard Command Line Options for GTK+ Programs</refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para>This manual page describes the command line options, which are common to all GTK+ based applications.</para> </refsect1> </refentry>
Sets the “date” part of the header/footer. | |
Sets the “title” part. | |
Sets the “section” part. | |
Sets the “source name” part. | |
Sets the “version” part. | |
Sets the “manual” part. |
Below are explanations of the steps the stylesheets
take to attempt to assemble and display
“good” headers and footer. [In the
descriptions, note that *info
is the refentry
“info” child
(whatever its name), and
parentinfo
is the
“info” child of its parent (again, whatever
its name).]
Content of the “extra1” field is
what shows up in the center
footer position of each page. The
man(7)
man page describes it as
“the date of the last revision”.
To provide this content, if the
refentry.date.profile.enabled
is non-zero, the stylesheets check the value of
refentry.date.profile
.
Otherwise, by default, they check for a
date
or pubdate
not only in the
*info
contents, but also in
the parentinfo
contents.
If a date cannot be found, the stylesheets now automatically generate a localized “long format” date, ensuring that this field always has content in output.
However, if for some reason you want to suppress
this field, you can do so by setting a non-zero value
for man.th.extra1.suppress
.
On Linux systems and on systems with a modern groff, the content of the “extra2” field are what shows up in the left footer position of each page.
The man(7)
man page describes
this as “the source of the command”, and
provides the following examples:
For binaries, use somwething 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:
product name (e.g., BSD) or org. name (e.g., GNU)
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
.
To provide this content, if the
refentry.source.name.profile.enabled
and
refentry.version.profile.enabled
parameter are non-zero, the stylesheets check the
value of refentry.source.name.profile
refentry.version.profile
.
Otherwise, by default, they check the following places, in the following order:
*info
/productnumber
*info
/productnumber
refmeta
/refmiscinfo
[@class = 'version']
parentinfo
/productnumber
*info
/productname
parentinfo
/productname
refmeta
/refmiscinfo
[nothing found, so leave it empty]
On Linux systems and on systems with a modern groff, the content of the “extra3” field are what shows up in the center header position of each page. Some man pages have “extra2” content, some don't. If a particular man page has it, it is most often “context” data about some larger system the documented item belongs to (for example, the name or description of a group of related applications). The stylesheets now check the following places, in the following order, to look for content to add to the “extra3” field.
parentinfo
/title
parent's title
refmeta
/refmiscinfo
[nothing found, so leave it empty]
Reworked *info
gathering. For
each refentry
found, the stylesheets now cache its
*info
content, then check for any
valid parent of it that might have metainfo content and cache
that, if found; they then then do all further matches against
those node-sets (rather than re-selecting the original
*info
nodes each time they are
needed).
New option for breaking strings after forward
slashes. This enables long URLs and pathnames to be broken
across lines. Controlled through
man.break.after.slash
parameter.
Output for servicemark and trademark are now
(SM)
and (TM)
. There is
a groff "\(tm"
escape, but output from that
is not acceptable.
New option for controlling the length of the title
part of the .TH
title line. Controlled
through the man.th.title.max.length
parameter.
New option for specifying output encoding of each man
page; controlled with
man.output.encoding
(similar to the
HTML chunker.output.encoding
parameter).
New option for suppressing filename messages when
generating output; controlled with
man.output.quietly
(similar to the HTML
chunk.quietly
parameter).
The text of cross-references to first-level
refentry
(refsect1
, top-level
refsection
, refnamediv
, and
refsynopsisdiv
) are now capitalized.
Cross-references to refnamediv
now use the
localized NAME
title instead of using the
first refname
child. This makes the output
inconsistent with HTML and FO output, but for man-page output,
it seems to make better sense to have the
NAME
. (It may actually make better sense to
do it that way in HTML and FO output as well...)
Added support for processing funcparams
.
Removed the space that was being output between
funcdef
and paramdef
; example: was:
float rand (void)
; now:
float rand(void)
Turned off bold formatting for the type
element when it occurs within a funcdef
or
paramdef
Corrected rendering of simplelist
. Any
<simplelist type="inline"
instance
is now rendered as a comma-separated list (also with an
optional localized “and” or “or” before the last item -- see
description elsewhere in these release notes). Any simplelist
instance whose type
is not
inline
is rendered as a one-column vertical
list (ignoring the values of the type
and columns
attributes if present)
Comment added at top of roff source for each page now includes DocBook XSL stylesheets version number (as in the HTML stylesheets)
Made change to prevent “sticky” fonts
changes. Now, when the manpages stylesheets encounter node
sets that need to be boldfaced or italicized, they put the
\fBfoo\fR
and \fIbar\fR
groff bold/italic instructions separately around each node in
the set.
synop.xsl: Boldface everything in
funcsynopsis
output except parameters (which are in
ital). The man(7)
man page says:
For functions, the arguments are always specified using italics, even in the SYNOPSIS section, where the rest of the function is specified in bold.
A look through the contents of the
man/man2
directory shows that most
(all) existing pages do follow this “everything in
funcsynopsis bold” rule. That means the
type
content and any punctuation (parens,
semicolons, vararg
s) also must be bolded.
Removed code for adding backslashes before periods/dots in roff source, because backslashes in front of periods/dots in roff source are needed only in the very rare case where a period is the very first character in a line, without any space in front of it. A better way to deal with that rare case is for you to add a zero-width space in front of the offending dot(s) in your source
Removed special handling of the quote
element. That was hard-coded to cause anything marked up with
the quote
element to be output preceded by two
backticks and followed by two apostrophes -- that is, that
old-school kludge for generating “curly” quotes in Emacs and
in X-Windows fonts. While Emacs still seems to support that, I
don't think X-Windows has for a long time now. And, anyway, it
looks (and has always looked) like crap when viewed on a
normal tty/console. In addition, it breaks localiztion of
quote
. By default, quote
content is
output with localized quotation marks, which, depending on the
locale, may or may not be left and right double quotation
marks.
Changed mappings for left and right single quotation
marks. Those had previously been incorrectly mapped to the
backtick (`) and apostrophe (&39;) characters (for
kludgy reasons -- see above). They are now correctly mapped to
the \(oq
and \(cq
roff
escapes. If you want the old (broken) behavior, you need to
manually change the mappings for those in the value of the
man.string.subst.map
parameter.
Removed xref.xsl
file. Now, of the
various cross-reference elements, only the ulink
element is handled differently; the rest are handled exactly
as the HTML stylesheets handle them, except that no hypertext
links are generated. (Because there is no equivalent hypertext
mechanism is man pages.)
New option for making “subheading dividers” in generated
roff source. The dividers are not visible in the rendered man
page; they are just there to make the source
readable. Controlled using
man.subheading.divider
.
Fixed many places where too much space was being added between lines.
The release adds localization support for Farsi (thanks to
Sina Heshmati) and improved support for the XLink-based DocBook NG
db:link
element. Other than that, it is a minor
bug-fix update to the 1.68.0 release. The main thing it fixes is a
build error that caused the XSLT Java extensions to be jarred up
with the wrong package structure. Thanks to Jens Stavnstrup for
quickly reporting the problem, and to Mauritz Jeanson for
investigating and finding the cause.
This release includes some features changes, particularly for FO/PDF output, and a number of bug fixes.
FO

in
figure
Moved hardcoded properties for index division titles
to the index.div.title.properties
attribute-set.
Added support for
table-layout
="auto
" for XEP.
Added index.div.title.properties
attribute-set.
$verbose
parameter is now
passed to most elements.
Added refentry
to
toc
in part
, as it is
permitted by the DocBook schema/DTD.
Added backmatter elements and
article
to toc
in
part
, since they are permitted by the
DocBook schema/DTD.
Added mode
="toc
" for
simplesect
, since it is now permitted in
the toc
if
simplesect.in.toc
is set.
Moved hard-coded properties to
nongraphical.admonintion.properties
and graphical.admonition.properties
attribute sets.
Added support for sidebar-width
and
float-type
processing instructions in
sidebar
.
For tables with HTML markup elements, added support
for dbfo bgcolor
PI, the attribute-sets
named table.properties
,
informaltable.properties
,
table.table.properties
, and
table.cell.padding
. Also added
support for the templates named
table.cell.properties
and
table.cell.block.properties
so that
tabstyles can be implemented. Also added support for tables
containing only tr
instead of
tbody
with tr
.
Added new paramater
hyphenate.verbatim.characters
which
can specify characters after which a line break can occur in
verbatim environments. This parameter can be used to extend
the initial set of characters which contain only space and
non-breakable space.

to enable
selection of different bullet symbol. Also added several
potential bullet characters, commented out by default.
Enabled all id's in XEP output for external olinking.

counting section levels
This release includes a number of bug fixes.
The following lists provide details about API and feature changes.
FO
Tables: Inherited cell properties are now passed to the
table.cell.properties
template so they can
be overridden by a customization.
Tables: Added support for bgcolor PI on table row element.
TOCs: Added new parameter
simplesect.in.toc
; default value of
0
causes simplesect to be omitted from TOCs; to
cause simplesect
to be included in TOCs, you
must set the value of simplesect.in.toc
to
1
.Comment from Norm:
Simplesect elements aren't supposed to appear in the ToC at all... The use case for simplesect is when, for example, every chapter in a book ends with "Exercises" or "For More Information" sections and you don't want those to appear in the ToC.
Sections: Reverted change that caused a variable reference to be used in a template match and rewrote code to preserve intended semantics.
Lists: Added workaround to prevent "* 0.60 + 1em" garbage in list output from PassiveTeX
Moved the literal attributes from
component.title
to the
component.title.properties
attribute-set so
they can be customized.
Lists: Added glossdef
's first
para
to special handling in
fo:list-item-body
.
HTML
TOCs: Added new parameter
simplesect.in.toc
; for details, see
the list of FO changes for this
release.
Indexing: Added new parameter
index.prefer.titleabbrev
; when set to
1
, index references will use
titleabbrev
instead of
title
when available.
HTML Help
Added support for generating windows-1252-encoded output using Saxon; for more details, see the list of XSL Java extensions changes for this release.
man pages
Replaced named/numeric character-entity references for non-breaking space with groff equivalent (backslash-tilde).
XSL Java extensions
Saxon extensions: Added the
Windows1252
class. It extends Saxon
6.5.x with the windows-1252 character set, which is
particularly useful when generating HTML Help for Western
European Languages (code from
Pontus Haglund and contributed to the
DocBook community by Sectra AB, Sweden).
To use:
Make sure that the Saxon 6.5.x jar file and the jar file for
the DocBook XSL Java extensions are in your CLASSPATH
Create a DocBook XSL customization layer -- a file named
mystylesheet.xsl
or whatever -- that, at a
minimum, contains the following:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version='1.0'> <xsl:import href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/htmlhelp/htmlhelp.xsl"/> <xsl:output method="html" encoding="WINDOWS-1252" indent="no"/> <xsl:param name="htmlhelp.encoding" select="'WINDOWS-1252'"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="chunker.output.encoding" select="'WINDOWS-1252'"></xsl:param> <xsl:param name="saxon.character.representation" select="'native'"></xsl:param> </xsl:stylesheet>
Invoke Saxon with the
encoding.windows-1252
Java system property set
to com.nwalsh.saxon.Windows1252
; for example
java \ -Dencoding.windows-1252=com.nwalsh.saxon.Windows1252 \ com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet \ mydoc.xml mystylesheet.xsl
Or, for a more complete "real world" case showing other options you'll typically want to use:
java \ -Dencoding.windows-1252=com.nwalsh.saxon.Windows1252 \ -Djavax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory=org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl \ -Djavax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory=org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl \ -Djavax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory=com.icl.saxon.TransformerFactoryImpl \ com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet \ -x org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.ResolvingXMLReader \ -y org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.ResolvingXMLReader \ -r org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.CatalogResolver \ mydoc.xml mystylesheet.xsl
In both cases, the "mystylesheet.xsl" file should be a DocBook customization layer containing the parameters show in step 2.
Saxon extensions: Removed Saxon 8 extensions from release package
A number of important bug fixes.
Added Saxon8 extensions
Enabled dbfo table-width
on
entrytbl
in FO output
Added support for role=strong
on
emphasis
in FO output
Added new FO parameter
hyphenate.verbatim
that can be used to turn
on "intelligent" wrapping of verbatim environments.
Replaced all <tt></tt>
output with
<code></code>
Changed admon.graphic.width
template to a
mode so that different admonitions can have different graphical
widths.
Deprecated the HTML shade.verbatim
parameter (use CSS instead)
Wrapped ToC
refentrytitle
/refname
and
refpurpose
in span with class values. This
makes it possible to style them using a CSS stylesheet.
Use strong/em
instead of
b/i
in HTML output
Added support for converting Emphasis
to
groff italic and Emphasis role='bold'
to
bold. Controlled by
emphasis.propagates.style
param, but not
documented yet using litprog system. Will do that next (planning
to add some other parameter-controllable options for hyphenation
and handling of line spacing).
callout.graphics.number.limit.xml
param: Changed the default from 10
to
15
.
verbatim.properties
: Added
hyphenate=false
Saxon and Xalan Text.java extensions: Added support for
URIResolver()
on insertfile href's
Added generated RELEASE-NOTES.txt
file.
Added INSTALL
file (executable file for
generating catalog.xml)
Removed obsolete tools
directory from
package
A number of important bug fixes.
Now xml:base
attributes that are generated by an
XInclude processor are resolved for image files.
Rewrote olink templates to support several new features.
Extended full olink support to FO output.
Add support for xrefstyle
attribute in olinks.
New parameters to support new olink features:
insert.olink.page.number
, insert.olink.pdf.frag
,
olink.debug
, olink.lang.fallback.sequence
, olink.properties
,
prefer.internal.olink
.
See the reference page for each parameter for more
information.
Added index.on.type
parameter for new type
attribute introduced in DocBook 4.3 for indexterms and index.
This allows you to create multiple indices containing
different categories of entries.
For users of 4.2 and earlier, you can use the new parameter index.on.role
instead.
Added new
section.autolabel.max.depth
parameter to turn off section numbering
below a certain depth.
This permits you to number major section levels and leave minor
section levels unnumbered.
Added footnote.sep.leader.properties
attribute set to format
the line separating footnotes in printed output.
Added parameter img.src.path
as a prefix to HTML img src
attributes.
The prefix is added to whatever path is already generated by the
stylesheet for each image file.
Added new attribute-sets
informalequation.properties
,
informalexample.properties
,
informalfigure.properties
, and informaltable.properties
,
so each such element type can be formatted
individually if needed.
Add component.label.includes.part.label
parameter to add any part number to chapter, appendix
and other component labels when
the label.from.part
parameter is nonzero.
This permits you to distinguish multiple chapters with the same
chapter number in cross references and the TOC.
Added chunk.separate.lots
parameter for HTML output.
This parameter lets you generate separate chunk files for each LOT
(list of tables, list of figures, etc.).
Added several table features:
Added table.table.properties
attribute set to add
properties to the fo:table element.
Added placeholder templates named table.cell.properties
and table.cell.block.properties
to enable adding properties
to any fo:table-cell
or the cell's fo:block
, respectively.
These templates are a start for implementing table styles.
Added new attribute
set component.title.properties
for easy modifications of
component's title formatting in FO output.
Added Saxon support for an encoding
attribute on the textdata
element. Added new parameter
textdata.default.encoding
which specifies encoding when
encoding
attribute on
textdata
is missing.
Template label.this.section
now controls whole
section label, not only sub-label which corresponds to
particular label. Former behaviour was IMHO bug as it was
not usable.
Formatting in titleabbrev for TOC and headers is preserved when there are no hotlink elements in the title. Formerly the title showed only the text of the title, no font changes or other markup.
Added intial.page.number
template to set the initial-page-number
property
for page sequences in print output.
Customizing this template lets you change when page numbering restarts. This is similar to the format.page.number
template that lets you change how the page number formatting changes in the output.
Added force.page.count
template to set the force-page-count
property for page sequences in print output.
This is similar to the format.page.number
template.
Sort language for localized index sorting in autoidx-ng.xsl
is now taken from document
lang, not from system environment.
Numbering and formatting of normal and ulink footnotes (if turned on) has been unified. Now ulink footnotes are mixed in with any other footnotes.
Added support for renderas
attribute in section and
sect1 et al.
This permits you to render a given section title as if it were a different level.
Added support for label
attribute in footnote to manually
supply the footnote mark.
Added support for DocBook 4.3 corpcredit
element.
Added support for a dbfo keep-together
PI for
formal objects (table, figure, example, equation, programlisting). That permits a formal object to be kept together if it is not already, or to be broken if it
is very long and the
default keep-together is not appropriate.
For graphics files, made file extension matching case insensitive, and updated the list of graphics extensions.
Allow calloutlist
to have block content before
the first callout
Added dbfo-need
processing instruction to provide
soft page breaks.
Added implementation of existing but unused
default.image.width
parameter for graphics.
Support DocBook NG tag
inline element.
It appears that XEP now supports Unicode characters in bookmarks. There is no further need to strip accents from characters.
Make segmentedlist
HTML markup
more semantic and available to CSS styles.
Added user.preroot
placeholder template to
permit xsl-stylesheet and other PIs and comments to be
output before the HTML root element.
Non-chunked legalnotice now gets an <a name="id"> element in HTML output so it can be referenced with xref or link.
In chunked HTML output, changed link rel="home"
to rel="start"
,
and link rel="previous"
to rel="prev"
, per W3C HTML 4.01
spec.
Added several patches to htmlhelp from W. Borgert
Added Bosnian locale file as common/bs.xml.
A number of important bug fixes.
Added a workaround to allow these stylesheets to process DocBook NG
documents. (It’s a hack that pre-processes the document to strip off the
namespace and then uses exsl:node-set
to process
the result.)
Added alternative indexing mechanism which has better internationalization support. New indexing method allows grouping of accented letters like e, é, ë into the same group under letter "e". It can also treat special letters (e.g. "ch") as one character and place them in the correct position (e.g. between "h" and "i" in Czech language).
In order to use this mechanism you must create customization
layer which imports some base stylesheet (like
fo/docbook.xsl
,
html/chunk.xsl
) and then includes appropriate
stylesheet with new indexing code
(fo/autoidx-ng.xsl
or
html/autoidx-ng.xsl
). For example:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:import href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/fo/docbook.xsl"/> <xsl:include href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/fo/autoidx-ng.xsl"/> </xsl:stylesheet>
New method is known to work with Saxon and it should also work with xsltproc 1.1.1 and later. Currently supported languages are English, Czech, German, French, Spanish and Danish.
General bug fixes and improvements. Sorry about the failure to produce an updated release notes file for 1.62.0—1.63.2
In the course of fixing bug #849787, wrapping Unicode callouts
with an appropriate font change in the Xalan extensions, I discovered
that the Xalan APIs have changed a bit. So xalan2.jar
will work with older Xalan 2 implementations, xalan25.jar
works with Xalan 2.5.
Lots of bug fixes and improvements.
Initial support for timestamp PI. From now you can use <?dbtimestamp format="Y-m-d H:M:S"?> to get current datetime in your document. Added localization support for datetime PI
Added level 6 to test for section
depth in
section.level template so that
section.title.level6.properties will be used for sections
that are 6 deep or deeper. This should also cause a h6 to be
created in html output.
Don't use SVG graphics if use.svg
=0
Now uses number-and-title-template for sections
only if section.autolabel
is not zero.
Added missing 'english-language-name' attribute to the l10n element, and the missing 'style' attribute to the template element so the current gentext documents will validate.
Corrected several references to parameter
qanda.defaultlabel
that were missing the "$".
Now accepts admon.textlabel
parameter to turn off
Note, Warning, etc. label.
FeatReq #684561: support more XEP metadata
Added hyphenation support. Added support for coref
.
Added beginpage
support. (does nothing; see TDG).
Added support for hyphenation-character, hyphenation-push-character-count, and hyphenation-remain-character-count
Added root.properties
,
ebnf.assignment
,
and ebnf.statement.terminator
Support bgcolor PI in table cells; make sure rowsep and colsep don't have any effect on the last row or column
Handle othercredit

Added support for elements between variablelist and first varlistentry since DocBook 4.2 supports that now.
Lots of bug fixes.
The format of the titlepage.templates.xml
files and
the stylesheet that transforms them have been significantly changed. All of the
attributes used to control the templates are now namespace qualified. So what
used to be:
<t:titlepage element="article" wrapper="fo:block">
is now:
<t:titlepage t:element="article" t:wrapper="fo:block">
Attributes from other namespaces (including those that are unqualified) are now copied directly through. In practice, this means that the names that used to be “fo:” qualified:
<title named-template="component.title" param:node="ancestor-or-self::article[1]" fo:text-align="center" fo:keep-with-next="always" fo:font-size="&hsize5;" fo:font-weight="bold" fo:font-family="{$title.font.family}"/>
are now unqualified:
<title t:named-template="component.title" param:node="ancestor-or-self::article[1]" text-align="center" keep-with-next="always" font-size="&hsize5;" font-weight="bold" font-family="{$title.font.family}"/>
The t:titlepage
and t:titlepage-content
elements both generate wrappers now. And unqualified attributes on those elements
are passed through. This means that you can now make the title font apply to
ane entire titlepage and make the entire “recto”
titlepage centered by specifying the font and alignment on the those elements:
<t:titlepage t:element="article" t:wrapper="fo:block" font-family="{$title.font.family}"> <t:titlepage-content t:side="recto" text-align="center">
Support use of titleabbrev
in running
headers and footers.

parameter to enable number/title cross references even when the
default would
be just the number.

ToCs if they're requested.

Attempt to prevent duplicated IDs from being produced when

on xref
points

Added default.float.class
and fixed figure
floats. (Bug #497603)
Fixed formatting of sbr
in FOs.
Added context to the “missing template” error message.
Removed 'keep-with-next' from formal.title.properties
attribute set now that the stylesheets support the option of putting
such titles below the object. Now the $placement value determines if
'keep-with-next' or 'keep-with-previous' is used in the title block.

right now, I think, FO support, uh, real soon now.)

Added call to the “*.head.content” elements when writing out long description chunks.
Make sure legalnotice
link is correct even when
chunking to a different base.dir
.
Use CSS to set viewport characteristics if
css.decoration
is non-zero, use div instead of p for making

s the
default alt
text for images in a figure
