Hi Bob.
That's an answer :)
(I must say I have tried to find "432" in the stylesheets without success !)
I will have a look at the article and report back.
Thanks a lot for your explanations.
Best regards,
Fabien

Hi Fabien,
The basic problem is that the HTML img element does not let you specify a percentage
scale of an image's intrinsic size. The width attribute on img can be either as
pixels (and a plain integer is interpreted as pixels), or as percentage. But the img
percentage is of the page width (window width in a browser), so the image would be
scaled to take up 80% of the window width, not 80% of each image's intrinsic image
size. Thus all images would be the same size if the stylesheet just passed 80% to the
img width attribute.
This leaves scaling the intrinsic image size up to the XSLT processor. The problem in
XSLT processing is figuring out what the intrinsic image width is so that a scale="80"
can be applied. Without the intrinsic image width, the processor has to guess. It
does so by using the 'nominal.image.width' stylesheet param, which is set to 6 times
the 'pixels.per.inch' param, which is set to 90 by default. Thus the
nominal.image.width value is 540, and 80% of that is 432, which is what you see in
your output.
For the stylesheet to get the intrinsic image size, Norm Walsh wrote an Java extension
program that opens the graphic and determines its size (if it can). Then it uses that
information to scale the graphic. That extension is included in the DocBook XSL
distribution and is described here:
http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/ImageSizing.html#ImageSizeExtIt does require using a Java XSLT processor such as Saxon or Xalan. It will not work
with xsltproc.

Subject: [docbook-apps] imagedata scale problem
Hi List.
I have some troubles when rendering images specified as
<equation>
<alt/>
<mediaobject>
<imageobject>
<imagedata role="analysis" fileref="/images/xml/53_2.png" scale="80"
format="PNG"/>
</imageobject>
</mediaobject>
</equation>
When using the HTML DB5 stylesheet, the result for the image is
My images all have the same resolution, thus different size but uniform display
appearance of the equation they contains. As they are a bit too big, I use scale=80"
to reduce their size by 20%. My problem is that the result gives for all images an
whatever the intrinsic image size is. Thus my equations appears
now all with different display sizes on the HTML page, which is not the expected
output.
As a hint, when using xsl-fo output, I get
<fo:block id="d68e38942">
<fo:external-graphic src="url(/images/xml/53_2.png)" width="auto" height="auto"
content-width="80%" content-height="80%" content-type="content-type:image/png"/>
</fo:block>
Which is correct.
Any ideas ?
Regards,
Fabien
