Thanks! I do tend to assume that XML Mind can do it, whatever "it" is and as long as I can find out how to ;-} I'll a) read the docs; b) experiment with the XMLmind XSL Customizer.
By the way ... may I suggest a small addition to one <dd> in one help topic? I was reading pageHeaderFooter yesterday for a reminder about {{document-date}}, and ended up a bit confused because of not knowing quite enough. What threw me for awhile was not being reminded that the <critdates> element is also available in a <prolog>. as-is {{document-date}} The publication date of the document. The value of the variable comes from the last created or revised element found in the topicmeta/critdates or bookmeta/critdates element of the map [...] suggestion {{document-date}} The publication date of the document. The value comes from the last created or revised element found in the critdates element, which can be in the <prolog> of a topic, the <topicmeta> of a map or the <topicmeta> of a bookmap. Good news from this need, by the way: IT Support have sent me an .exe they assure me will install an up-to-date XXE on my laptop! I shall not try it until I've finished today's work, though ... Also, three colleagues have been to see me quite spontaneously to ask what DITA is and how it could help them. They all seemed convinced by what I explained.
