Here's what I do to deal with the occasional wide block element (table,
figure, whatever). I have this in my customization layer:
<xsl:template match="*[./processing-instruction('bjfo') =
'wide-block-element']">
<fo:block margin-left="-.75in" margin-right="-.75in">
<xsl:apply-imports/>
</fo:block>
</xsl:template>
That opens up the left and right margins by three quarters of an inch. Then
I can use the following processing instruction (It's "bjfo" because our
company was named "BroadJump" when I added it to the xsls). You could instead
match="*[@role='release-margins']" if you prefer to use role="release-margins"> in your docbook.
...
AFAIK, the stylesheets don't support landscaped tables. It's tricky to
implement due to some aspects of xsl-fo and there are limits to what you can do.
Maybe someone else can help you there.

Hello all!
I need to be able to release/change the margin settings for a table to use
the whole useable page minus header/footer. The pgwide=1 attribute does
nothing. Also I am using "orient=land" to make the table landscape.
Is there a way to do something like this?
...
If I change margins it changes it for everything. Can I do this short of
defining a new pagemaster?
Thanks for the help!
