Subject: Re: [xsl] Writing stylesheets for Web and PDF output? From: Dan Vint <dvint@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 26 May 2012 14:18:05 -0700 |
Hi Dan,
I am working in a similar environment, except we use 2 different sets of stylesheets, but have many imported/included stylesheets shared across the IETM and PDF. Like you, we have a S1000D input to publish a MIL-STD-40051 output. As you know the 40051 output covers a number of different Technical Manuals (PDF output). We have over 15 Publication Modules which share over 1000 data modules. We use a "pipeline" approach like you do. We have been doing this for 2 years with great success. Managing 2 sets of stylesheets for 2 completely different outputs is manageable. In fact, I prefer it this way. But trying to great a single set of stylesheets to output 2 completely different outputs (IETM or PDF) would be a nightmare to manage (IMO).
