Re: PDF from ditamap, force pagebreak between topics

Hi mdslup, Are you using the predefined general PDF transformation scenario (DITA Map PDF - based on XSL-FO), or one of the predefined CSS-based scenarios? However, breaking the page before new topics is possible in both cases. Depending on the specific transformation scenario, you should follow the...

Re: PDF: How do I implement a Last Page Footer different from other pages?

I assume your using FOP to do the transformation and you already have some XSLT customization that overrides the standard one provided by DITA-OT. I prepared a static FO example showing a last page footer with a bottom margin of the last page different from the one applied to the rest of the pages. ...

Re: PDF: How do I implement a Last Page Footer different from other pages?

Hi GregWait,

Could you please let us know what transformation scenario are you using?
Is it one of the scenarios that come predefined in oXygen? And if it is, which one specifically (DITA Map PDF / DITA Map PDF WYSIWYG / DITA Map PDF HTML 5 & CSS)?

Regards,

If you have already created your DITAVAL file, you should just edit the DITA Map PDF WYSIWYG transformation scenario, then, in the scen...
