Hi there,
I just experimented with my full page cover customization that you mention and fop and got it to work with a bitmap (jpg), but not with an eps. When I use an .eps, nothing shows up--perhaps fop doesn't support .eps? Since I don't really use fop, I can't answer that.
Note: Be sure you have the jimi classes installed with fop, or none of your images show up.

I think to do a real full page cover, you have to have new pagemasters with 0" margins.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Trouble with title pages
I've been trying to set up a title page but I've had no success when trying to add an image to it. I've generated a titlepage template:
<t:templates xmlns:t="http://nwalsh.com/docbook/xsl/template/1.0"
base-stylesheet="C:/tools/lib/docbook-xsl/docbook-xsl-1.58.1/fo/docbook.xsl">
<t:variable name="section.autonumber" select="true()"/>
<t:titlepage element="book" wrapper='fo:block' >
<t:titlepage-content side='recto'>
<title predicate="[1]"/>
<subtitle predicate="[1]"/>
<author/>
<contrib/>
<edition/>
<copyright/>
<pubdate/>
<revision/>
<mediaobject/>
</t:titlepage-content>
</t:titlepage>
</t:templates>
In my book I've this bookinfo and more:
<bookinfo>
<title>Installation Guide Conrad PACS interface</title>
<mediaobject>
<textobject>
<para>foo</para>
</textobject>
<imageobject>
<imagedata fileref="218.jpg" format="JPEG"></imagedata>
</imageobject>
</mediaobject>
.
.
.
</bookinfo>
The JPEG-file is located in the same directory as the XML-file. Is this correct? I haven't found any good examples on this and I am not very experienced yet.
What I really want to do is something similar to what David Cramer suggested in:
http://www.dpawson.co.uk/docbook/styling/titlepage.html#d1466e176 but I haven't got it working either.
My title page should look something like my attachment but nicer.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
/Kenneth
