Hello, If you want to modify the header or footer of a PDF output you need to customize the DocBook stylesheet for XSL-FO output. See the section about headers and footers in print customizations, that is XSL-FO customizations: http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/PrintHeaders.html Regards, Sorin Mike Starov wrote:
And the like. I know that the rule is being triggered because I'm getting textual output in the resulting PDF. But so far I'm mystified about how to go about modifying the header with the product name and version. I am nearly certain the issue is namespace related, because I'm able to get xsltproc to transform the xml file using pretty trivial xsl. Now for PDF transformation your xsl is not correct. It is outputting HTML and you need FO. To get the correct footer in PDF you have to modify the standard docbook.xsl behavior either by using params or extending it. I am not sure how exactly but you can find info in http://sagehill.net/book-description.html
