Adding a DateTime stamp to a PDF titlepage
Hi,

 

We are currently generating PDFs using xsltproc, and are
building our PDF titlepages using an .svg image with the following code:

 

      <t:titlepage
t:element="book" t:wrapper="fo:block">

            <t:titlepage-content
t:side="recto">

            </t:titlepage-content>

 

            <t:titlepage-content
t:side="verso">

                  <legalnotice
font-size="10pt"/>

            </t:titlepage-content>

 

            <t:titlepage-separator>

                  <!--<fo:block
break-after="page"/>-->

            </t:titlepage-separator>

 

            <t:titlepage-before
t:side="recto">

                  <!--<fo:block
break-after="page"/>-->

                  <fo:block-container
absolute-position="absolute"

                        height="100%"

                        width="100%">

                        <fo:block
padding-top="10%">

                              <fo:external-graphic
src=""url(All_Titlepages/KTM/CoverPage_InstallationGuide_KTM.svg)"/>

                        </fo:block>

                  </fo:block-container>

            </t:titlepage-before>

 

            <t:titlepage-before
t:side="verso">

                  <fo:block
break-before="page"/>

                  <!--<fo:block
break-after="page"/>-->

            </t:titlepage-before>

      </t:titlepage>

 

We have been asked to include a date and time stamp on each
pdf title page in addition to the graphic file.

 

I’ve been able to get generic text placed in the
correct location on the title page by adding the following entry directly after
the external-graphic block:

 

<fo:block text-align="right"
margin-right="-10px" font-family="{$title.fontset}"
font-size="8pt">Date/Time Stamp to go here</fo:block>

I’ve seen several examples using JavaScript but they tend to require
either the Saxon or Xalan processors, which we are not using.

 

Does anybody know if I can insert the date and time in that
location? If so, could you provide or point me to an example?

 

Thanks in advance,

Laurie.
