Hi, I'm trying to use Oxygen to make docbook transform to epub. I am still trying to understand what is going on. I created a simple dummy.xml with a sample customization layer. rj.xsl The customization layer only has three lines: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:d="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" xmlns:date="http://exslt.org/dates-and-times" xmlns:saxon="http://icl.com/saxon" exclude-result-prefixes="d date saxon" version="1.0"> <xsl:param name="chapter.autolabel" select="0"/> <xsl:param name="html.stylesheet">testing.css</xsl:param> To make it work in Oxygen, I cloned and edited the epub scenario, and add a parameter using the parameters tab of the Edit Ant Scenario dialog. name = rjxsl value = ${pd}/oxygen-test.xsl But when I run it, it produces an epub file and the html code doesn't seem to reflect the css reference or chapter.autolabel parameter. This is strange because the build.xml file seems to reference the rj.xsl file path correctly. Two other things. I would expect that the testing.css (which is located in the project directory) to be copied to the appropriate output directory. But I do not see it copied there (although the image(s) are copied successfully there). Also, the css is not listed in the content.opf file. Please note that the db2epub.py seems to process the same project correctly. Also, when I inspect the html files in the out directory, I see this message in the head: <meta name="generator" content="DocBook XSL-NS Stylesheets V1.76.1"/> My understanding is that there are incompatibilities between the DocBook XSL-NS stylesheets and the epub transformation. I've been warned by Keith Fahlgren not to use the XSL-NS stylesheets. This fact was alluded to in a recent thread about the epub3 beta stylesheets, but my understanding is that this applies both to the epub3 beta and the current epub. (See http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/docbook-apps/201110/msg00001.html ) I appreciate your help. ************************************** Here is the ant file.
