How to remove the setting to start new chapter always on the new page?
Hello,
as I understood from older posts, the setting that every new chapter starts on a new page is a default behaviour.
How to change it so that chapters would start immediately under previous content?
What attribute and what dita-ot plugin file should I look into?

Hey chrispitude,
I am using PDF based on XSL-FO and I have a custom plugin based on org.dita.pdf2 plugin (I am transforming a dita bookmap).
From what I have been reading it would seem that there is a setting in generating page sequence and I have been experimenting with layoutmasters.xsl and layoutmaster_attr.xsl files. Also a bit with commons.xsl but so far no success.

Hi Justyna,
Does the issue occur with the default XSL-FO transformation, without your custom plugin?

Yes it does. I think I read somewhere on oXygen help page that this is a default behaviour for bookmap chapter. It always starts new chapter on new page (it starts new page sequence if I remember correctly).chrispitude wrote: ↑Tue Jun 13, 2023 1:19 pm Hi Justyna,

Hi Justyna,
If the behavior occurs with the standard open-source DITA-OT, perhaps you could post your question on the DITA-OT Users discussion group:
