  • 1.  No Footnotes visible when using FOP 0.95

    Posted 09-18-2008 14:50
    Hi there,

    I am using DocBook 4.5 with DocBook XSL 1.71.1 and FOP 0.95.
    When converting into PDF my documents do not show footnotes except those
    inside tables.
    I do not modify the default footnote configuration templates in the xsl
    files of the FO processor or override them in my customized xsl
    configuration file.
    Has anyone an idea what could be the reason for this behavior?


    Thanks for help
    Steffen

    I cannot reproduce the problem. Have you tried with the default
    stylesheets, to be absolutely sure no side-effect is introduced by your
    customization? Also, have you tried updating the XSLT stylesheets? It
    worked for me with 1.73.2.
    If none of that works, can you please send the XSL-FO file (off-list if
    it’s big)? Maybe some corner case is triggered in which footnotes are
    swallowed.
