[oXygen-user] R: Additional XSLT stylesheet in docbooktransformation

[Adrian Buza]

Hello,

Are you running Oxygen 12.2 and have modified the default "DocBook PDF" 
transformation by any chance ?

Oxygen 12.2 added out-of-the-box support for DocBook 
profiling(conditional text) in the default transformation scenarios. 
This means that in the default transformation scenarios two stylesheets 
are applied to the original XML file: a generic profiling 
stylesheet(${frameworks}/docbook/xsl/profiling/profile.xsl) and the 
specific transformation stylesheet(e.g. PDF: 
${frameworks}/docbook/xsl/fo/docbook_custom.xsl).

So, if you have duplicated and modified one of the default DocBook 
scenarios you should:

1. If you also want to use the profiling(conditional text) support, keep 
the profiling XSL URL(${frameworks}/docbook/xsl/profiling/profile.xsl) 
in the scenario and just change the additional stylesheet. Press the 
"Additional XSLT stylesheets" button and replace the stylesheet with 
your customized own.

2. If profiling is not relevant to you, replace the XSL URL with your 
customized stylesheet(you probably already did this) and make sure that 
there aren't any additional stylesheets specified. Press the "Additional 
XSLT stylesheets" button and remove the stylesheet found 
there(${frameworks}/docbook/xsl/fo/docbook_custom.xsl).

Either way, make sure you don't cascade stylesheets(use "Additional XSLT 
stylesheets") that can't be cascaded.

Regards,
Adrian
