Re: [docbook-apps] Problem with callouts with fo/pdf using xsltproc and fop 1.0 (DB 5.0 with name spaces)

    If you are getting callouts in the HTML, then you probably have it correct on the XML
    side. You can check in on the PDF side by setting the stylesheet param
    'callout.graphics' to zero, which will cause it to insert text numbers like "(1)"
    instead of graphics.

    For PDF output, the FO processor needs access to the callout image files in the
    distribution. Do you get any error messages in the FOP process about not being able
    to read the image files? The callout.graphics.path param can set that path, but if it
    is a relative path, it must be relative to the FO file.

    Thanks for the help, Bob. I'll check all that when I get a chance and
    report back.

    I don't remember seeing any warning or error messages, but I've ripped
    out the code for now due to time constraints--I'll investigate deeper
    later.

    Best regards,
