[XXE] dangerous mix of content and presentation, but ...

2017-06-22 Thread Grundtvig Nielsen Niels
... I've seen allusions to a 'keep with next' option in the release notes and 
wonder whether it's available in DITA tasks: the more tasks I write, the more I 
see conversion to .pdf leaving the single-line  on one page and the 
related  on another. I am of course reluctant to invent extra content 
just to push the  to the next page and keep the elements together :-}

Hints welcome! or, even, confirmation it can't be done - just so that I know.

This is a bug in our XSLT stylesheets. An omission to be more precise.

The workaround is to add attribute:

keep-together.within-column = always

to the attribute-sets called:

step
compact-step
unordered-step
compact-unordered-step

(depending on which kind of step you use in your documents.)



This can be done from within XXE using  XMLmind XSL Customizer. See

- 8.1. "Customize Configuration" menu, 
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/customizeConfigurationMenu.html#editConversionStylesheetsAction


- 14.3. The "XMLmind XSL Customizer" application, 
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/com.xmlmind.xslcustom.Customizer.html





IMPORTANT: If after doing that, you still have  on one
page and the related  on another, then this means that Apache FOP 
does not support keep-together.within-column = always (which would be a 
surprise).


We have purchased RenderX XEP to generate our PDFs and it works with 
that commercial XSL-FO processor. (I'm pretty sure there is no problem 
with Antenna House too.)
