Re: [docbook-apps] A stupid idea


OK, now I understand.  I think you just need to tell the processor to use
the .svg extension rather than the .png extension.  You can do that with the
'callout.graphics.extension' parameter as described in:

http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/Icons.html#CalloutIcons

Now that we have svg callout icons, I will make that the default for FO
output in the next release.

I have the SVG generator script (from the Alexander's script previously
talk here). I can generate the png file but I found (may be because I am
a Mac user) that the result in a PDF file is not "beautiful".

I try to put the svg script inside my xml book file and the result
(always in a pdf file) is very better than with the bitmap files.

So I would like to call (for example) 1.svg instead of 1.png when a
callout icon is required in my file.

For now the result is not good. I have no errors, but the callout icons
are not in the final pdf document.

May be the good solution is to custom callouts.xsl.

I hope It's more clear. :-)

My svg script is :

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<svg width="9" height="9" viewBox="0 0 16 16">

    <g transform="translate(0,0)"
    style="font-family:serif;font-size:10;font-weight:bold">

    <circle cx="8" cy="8" r="7"
    style="stroke:rgb(0,0,0);fill:black;stroke-width:1"/>

        <g style="stroke:none;fill:white">
            <text id="number" text-anchor="middle" x="8"
            y="11.5">1</text>
        </g>
    </g>
</svg>
