Hello,

It is my first post here, so I would like to say hello to everyone and thank for your future help
Well, I am looking for a information where should I look for mistake, because I think there is a big wall in front of me, and I really do not know what to do.
The problem is connected with page numbering issue, I would like to publish PDF files always with even number of pages.
I forced this feature in file common-attr.xsl (bolded line)

Code: Select all

 <xsl:attribute-set name="__force__page__count">

        <xsl:attribute name="force-page-count">

            <xsl:choose>

                <xsl:when test="/*[contains(@class, ' bookmap/bookmap ')]">

                    <xsl:value-of select="'even'"/>

                </xsl:when>

                <xsl:otherwise>

                    [b]<xsl:value-of select="'end-on-even'"/>[/b]

                </xsl:otherwise>

            </xsl:choose>

        </xsl:attribute>

    </xsl:attribute-set>

Then, last page is not taken into counting and the caption looks like that i.e. "12 / 11" [current page / total pages]
If I switch it back to auto mode, I can get proper values of page numbers.


Here are parts of code from custom.xsl file

Code: Select all

<xsl:template match="/" name="rootTemplate">

        	<xsl:call-template name="validateTopicRefs"/>

			<xsl:variable name="fo"> 

        			<fo:root xsl:use-attribute-sets="__fo__root">

            				<xsl:call-template name="createMetadata"/>

            				<xsl:call-template name="createLayoutMasters"/>

            				<xsl:call-template name="createBookmarks"/>

           				<xsl:apply-templates select="*" mode="generatePageSequences"/>

        			</fo:root>

			</xsl:variable>

					<xsl:apply-templates select="$fo/*" mode="postprocess"/>	

   	</xsl:template>

	

	<xsl:template match="fo:flow[not(following::fo:flow)]" mode="postprocess">

			<xsl:copy> 

				<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/> 

				<xsl:apply-templates mode="postprocess"/> 

				<fo:block id="last-page-id" keep-with-previous.within-page="always"/> 

			</xsl:copy> 

	</xsl:template>

and later in insertBody tamplate

Code: Select all

		

		<totalpages>

			<fo:page-number-citation-last page-citation-strategy="all" ref-id="last-page-id" />

		</totalpages>

Hello Dan,

I have read and tried using css that you have suggested. but it is taking number of pages in first chapter as default.
For example :
in chapter 1 : footer- page 2 of 4
in chapter 2: footer- page 2 of 4.
Please help in getting this chapter wise.

Thank you,
Manohar.

Manohar,

Just edit the CSS-based transformation scenario that you are using to obtain the PDF and, in the "Parameters" tab of the scenario editing dialog, look for the "args.css.param.numbering".
Set that parameter's value to "deep-chapter-scope-no-page-reset" and the page numbering should be continuous from the very beginning of the PDF document and all the way down to the end.

You can find more information on the various page numbering variants in the Numbering Types section from the DCPP User-Guide on our website.

Costin

Thanks costin,

But i want both chapterwise page numbering i.e., Page numbers should get reset for chapter and want 1/ Total number of pages for a chapter in the footer.
I am using DITA with CSS transformation.

Thank you,
Manohar.

Hi,

I'm afraid that is not something that could be done.
It is not possible to have contextual counters for current page and for the total pages in each chapter.
