Re: Para alignment

Thank you for your help! I've managed to make it work.

	<xsl:template match="para[@align]">

		<fo:block text-align="{@align}">

		   <xsl:apply-templates/>

		</fo:block>

	</xsl:template>

You may be unfamiliar with how to include parameters in your XSL

customization layer.

Here is a reference to that:

http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/param.html

Basically, for HTML output, you'd want to reference a css file and

then you can do it in your CSS file.

http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/docbook.css.source.html

For FO (PDFs), you'd probably want to use this parameter

http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/fo/index.html

(Choose the "alignment"  parameter under 2.19. Pagination and General Styles).

If you need help getting started on a customization layer, look at

this: http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/CustomMethods.html#CustomizationLayer

I can't speak about FO, but for html output, you'd want to use the

role attribute on a para tag

http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/UsingCSS.html#CustomClass

(That's not the only way -- you can write an XSL customization, but

this way is easiest).

Hope this helps.
