Subject: [xsl] integrating full-page images into document flow - how? From: ejansson@xxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Tue, 30 Sep 2003 16:44:21 -0500 |
I'm having trouble integrating full-page images into my document and was hoping someone on this list might have experience. Some background: I have several documents formatted in TEI format (http://www.tei-c.org/) and need to convert them into PDF. I've written a XSLT script to convert my TEI XML to XSL-FO, and then use a renderer (I've used both FOP and RenderX) to make it PDF. The problem is as follows. I have several figures/external-graphics that I need to render at full page size. However, I do not want to create a page-break at the point in the document flow where the image appears. Rather, I want to place the external-graphic on its own page which immediately follows the point in the document flow where the fo:external-graphic element appears. The text before and after the fo:external-graphic should flow together, uninterrupted by any page breaks. I understand that I can do this if I break up the document into different flows, so that the text pages are sequenced with full-page images appropriately, each (probably) using its own layout. However, I would like to use a single flow if possible, since I am autogenerating the XSL-FO via XSLT, and do not want to determine the exact placement of the full-page images by manual experimentation. That is, I want to avoid the process of manually having to break up the document into different flows to achive this integration of full-page figures w/o break, and so am hoping that XSL-FO has some way of handling this situation. Thanks for any help! Eric Jansson XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
