Re: Not a Problem, But an HTML and PDF Publishing Question

Thank you Julien, I will try that! My fundamental problem seems to be that the "footer" does not stick to the bottom of the page, it seems to appear directly under the previous content. Is there any "trick" to making sure the footer stays on the bottom of the page when the page h...

Re: Custom Footnotes Issue

Hi Dan, unfortunately this is publishing same as before I made these changes, with the footnotes on the bottom. No worries, I am going to abandon this effort. I will add this to the requested new features section so you can develop and test it in house and hopefully add it to the styles basket as an...

Not a Problem, But an HTML and PDF Publishing Question

Hello again, I have a question I was hoping your could help with regarding publishing HTML to PDF. The source file is an HTML file, and I have an accompanying PDF file. Does Oxygen have the capability to produce a PDF from HTML if the source is not DITA XML? I am using these files (see attached .zip...

Hello, I also noticed that when Julien added a counter reset for the table footnotes, it resets the counter in the list below the table, but does not reset the counter for the footnote calls in the table. Is it possible to add some code to reset the footnote calls inside the table as well to match? ...

Re: Footnotes Related to Tables in PDF Documents

Hi Julien, thank you. In the XSLT you provided, the footnote calls in tables are being formatted as hyperlinks with the text decoration (blue, underline). Will this css entry override that? When I deleted that part of the XSLT you provided (the part that converted the footnote calls to links), I now...

Re: Footnotes Related to Tables in PDF Documents

Interesting…so you have to write the fn, then you have to reference it…seems redundant, but I understand,
We actually use a different extend-script based process through FrameMaker for our flight manuals written in DITA that publishes the use-by reference.
Thanks for clearing that up!

Also please notice that footnotes that are second, third, etc. instances of a footnote in a table are structured as <xref> to the original <fn> element to avoid duplication with a type="fn" but they are showing up formatted as hyperlinks because they are xrefs. Is there a way to prevent <x...

Hello, thanks for your reply. I selected Emulate Print both in Edge and Firefox. The browser still shows bold and here is what the inspect pane shows. I had even created a class .b {font-weight: 800;} in my custom css. That didn't seem to do anything in the print version.

OK, I got the title to work based on your last post! Still working on the image.

Finally, is there a way to place an xref in each topic to link back to the bookmap table of contents since it is a generate file?
