Re: number contents in the frontmatter of a dita book
Hello, This seems quite hard to realize: you can easily number the chapters before the TOC from a custom CSS stylesheet, but for the TOC itself that's different. By default the TOC doesn't include itself, which will lead to a different numbering inside and outside the TOC: The TOC will have: 1 Overv...

Hello Mikael, Unfortunately the processor use the font that allows it to render all the character, this is why DejaVu Sans is used for all the text. A workaround to this problem is to wrap the delta character into a <ph> element and to add the fallback font for this element only: *[class ~= "to...

Re: To achieve a specific header for the chapter
Hello,
If your string-sets should have different styles (color, font, etc.) you can't, the only solution is to have them in different page-margin boxes (top-left and top-center for example).

Julien

Re: Can I put a topic as frotmatter page?
Another solution could be to convert the ditamap into a bookmap using Oxygen's XML Refactoring tool or Oxygen XML Scripting if you have a publishing pipeline. Then add the frontmatter into the bookmap. Then using a small XSLT stylesheet you could be able to add the topic into the bookmap frontmatter...

Re: Positioning background image on page header
Hello,
If you want your background-image to start 1cm from the top of the page, you need to change the background-position values:
Where the first value is the X axis (from the left) and the second is the Y axis (from the top).

Re: Images in PDF scales and occupy full width of the page
Hello,
Normally images should keep their original or scaled size (except if they are bigger than the page size), maybe you have a CSS rule setting their width to 100%.
For more information, you can also take a look at the Images and Figures topic from our user-guide.
