Re: [docbook-apps] Help with aligning company logo and copyright text in PDF footer

Hi,

I think you are seeing your logo graphic 
stacked on top of your copyright text.  That's because your copyright text 
is inside an fo:block, and you cannot stack fo:block's side by side.  Your 
graphic is in the fo:block that wraps all the content generated by the 
'footer.table' templat. So the fo:block you put around your copyright text 
generates a line break.  You should wrap both the graphic and the text 
inside one fo:block that sets your properties.  That block will then extend 
across the page.  If you want to add space between the logo and the text, 
then add an fo:leader between them, something like <fo:leader 
leader-length="12pt"/>.

 

You can also add a rule that extends across 
the page by putting a border on that fo:block, something like:

 

  border-top="0.5pt solid 
black"

 

The reason user.footer.navigation doesn't 
work is because that template is only used in the HTML stylesheet.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Help with 
  aligning company logo and copyright text in PDF footer

  

  

  
Hi,

  
 

  
I have reviewed the docs thoroughly, but can’t seem to 
  align my company logo and the text “Copyright 2005” so that they are 
  horizontally aligned in the footer. I also want to use a horizontal line, but 
  this only appears in user.footer.navigation. For 
  example:

  
 

  
<LOGO>   Copyright 2005  My 
  company.

  
 

  
This is the code which appears in the XSL stylesheet:

  
 

  
<!-- Footers! 
  -->

  
                        
  <xsl:template 
  name="footer.table">

  
                                                
  <xsl:choose>

  
                                                            
  <xsl:when 
  test="$pageclass = 'titlepage' and 
  $sequence='first'">

  
                                                                                    
  <!-- no, book titlepages have no headers at all 
  -->

  
                                                            
  </xsl:when>

  
                                                
                
  <xsl:otherwise>

  
            
                            
  <fo:external-graphic height="7.3pt" scaling="uniform" 
  src="url(images/orionlogosmall.png)" 
  width="2.55pt">

  
                        
                  
  </fo:external-graphic>

  
                                                                                                
  

  
                                                                                                
  

  
                                                            
  

  
                                    
  <fo:block 
  hyphenate="false" line-height="10.3pt"  
  space-before="-15.0pt" 
  margin-left="61.0pt">

  
                                                
  <fo:inline 
  font-family="Arial, sans-serif" 
  font-size="8.0pt">

  
Copyright My company 
  International Limited.  All Rights 
  Reserved. 

  
                                                
  </fo:inline>

  
                                                            
  </fo:block>

  
                                                
      </xsl:otherwise>

  
                                                
  </xsl:choose>

  
</xsl:template>
