If you have complex multi-page tables with repeated headers and footers you'll probably get further with the XSL:FO stylesheets. The main reasons to use CSS as i see it are (1) if the CSS (or CSS knowledge) overlaps with other projects it might be easier for you to work on (and there are more resources for learning it) (2) if you want to use new features that aren't in XSL-FO... but watch that neither PrinceXML nor AntennaHouseFormatter will have the very latest browser CSS features. > I would have thought that there are ready made xslts available for > docbook > So a little bit of a style guide is all we need for look and feel ? There are indeed off-the-shelf style sheets. Again, it depends on your specific needs as to what's best.
