Hello,
I am quite new to XSL and FO, and am presently designing a stylesheet to
transform and render certain publications in XML format to PDF. I have
run into a few problems, and was hoping you could help me out.
1. We are using different formats for even and odd pages. Although I can
set the margins etc. in appropriately for odd and even pages in the
<simple-page-master>, I need some means to check for odd/even pages
during the flow of the document, so that I can stylize the header and
footer differently for odd and even pages. Can this be done?
2. Secondly, I am trying to display text oriented at 90 degrees next to
an image (for the credits). For this i was putting the text inside a
<block> which i put inside a <block-container> oriented at 90 deg, and
after that was the block containing the image. But this causes the image
to display below the text rather than alongside it. I guess there is an
implicit 'newline' semantics associated with <block>. Is there any way i
can suppress this, or am i taking a wrong approach altogether. What
would be the best way to achieve this?
Thanks in anticipation.
