Re: [docbook-apps] PDF Title Page Transformation Problems
That is the default behavior of the FO 
stylesheet.

You are seeing the title on the recto title 
page,

the title repeated (along with copyright 
and legalnotice

info) on the verso title page, and each 
dedication

in its own page-sequence.

 

You may judge that to be incorrect, but it 
is pretty

standard for book publishing.  You can 
always customize

the stylesheet to do whatever you 
want.

Docbook-rng-5.0.b1 xsl-1.69.1

The following code 
  fragment:

  
 

  
<book xml:id="vhimSEP" 
  xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" 
  version="5.0" xml:lang="en"

  
   xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" 
  xml:base="">

  
   
  <title>Foo</title>   

  
   
  <subtitle>Foo</subtitle>

  
   
  <dedication>

  
      
  <title/>

  
      
  <mediaobject>

  
         
  <imageobject>

  
            
  <imagedata fileref="&imgFoo;" 
  align="center"/>

  
         
  </imageobject>         
  

  
      
  </mediaobject>

  
   
  </dedication>

  
<sect1>

  
…

  
…

  
 

  
Produces a title/subtitle page, a 
  second page with title:subtitle and a third page with the 
  dedication.

  
 

  
This only occurs with PDF 
  transformations; html transformations correctly produce the title / subtitle 
  and dedication on a single page.

  
 

  
Advise 
  please.
