docbook-apps

Hallo,

I use “XEP”.

1.
I would like put some white space between the Words. Like following:
She likes to have pears.

The spaces between the words are not regular. In my DocBook “myDocBook.xml” I wrote the code like “ ” and it failed.

2.
How to put a white space at the beginning of a line?

I need this irregularly: some lines have white spaces at the beginning, some do not have.

3.
I need very often to produce some white spaces between two lines. The only way I found out in “XEP” is: <literallayout> </literallayout>

Are there some other ways to produce white spaces between two lines in XEP? (The position and the length of the white spaces are not regular.)


Thanks for any help!


Lily

Try   (non-breaking space),   (En space) or   (Em space)
for 1. and 2.

In your customisation layer put in your text where you want a new
line


<xsl:template match="processing-instruction('lb')">
<fo:block/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="processing-instruction('line-break')">
<fo:block/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="processing-instruction('hard-linebreak')">
<fo:block break-before='page'/>
</xsl:template>
to get one linefeed

You might also need to direct page throws as well



<xsl:template match="processing-instruction('pb')">
<fo:block break-before='page'/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="processing-instruction('page-break')">
<fo:block break-before='page'/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="processing-instruction('hard-pagebreak')">
<fo:block break-before='page'/>
</xsl:template>
