I am using XML Editor 7.4.1 The document I am working on has some wide tables and I want to try the option to rotate tables which, I believe, was introduced in the Dita 1.3 specification. I have tried setting the @orient = “ land“ in the table element but this does not have any impact on the output. Does the xmlMind convertor support this attribute?
Sorry but DITA 1.3 new attributes table/@orient and entry/@rotate are currently not supported.
Moreover this limitation is not documented in: Appendix B. Limitations and implementation specificities http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/_distrib/doc/manual/limitations.html as it should be.
Should I be doing anything else in order to rotate the table when outputting to pdf?
I'm sorry but I don't see how in practice (e.g. using XSL-FO 1.0 and Apache FOP) this can be achieved.
If the table is just a bit too wide, may attribute scale="80" would help. See http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/dita/v1.3/errata01/os/complete/part2-tech-content/langRef/attributes/displayAttributes.html
