I was thinking of tossing it out entirely, actually; I don't find it an interesting addition given the thoroughness of the index. > Are you needing help both on things like that as well as tweaking > spacing, tables, &c? Just the former? All of it. Anything that has to do with how the XML gets turned into a PDF, really, which is all about LaTeX; about generating the right LaTeX from the XML and tweaking the LaTeX with extra .sty files or whatever. > In this process, do you even have the ability to fix problems like > the bottom of page 513 and the top of page 517; where manual page > breaks and table formatting will likely need to be added to handle > particular special cases of how the text winds up on the page? > (And which will of course change as larger scope adjustments are > made.) I want it to be awesome. I want to be proud to publish it. So: all of the above. I'm perfectly happy to have tags in the XML that are only used by the LaTeX/PDF if necessary/helpful (and vice versa for the HTML, although CSS makes that largely unnecessary). I know where all the hooks are; I can make the LaTeX look like pretty much anything you want. What I don't know is what the LaTeX should look like to get particular visual results. -Robin -- http://singinst.org/ : Our last, best hope for a fantastic future.
