I have to transform to xslfo. That is, I take e.g. test.xml, transform with
test.xsl, and the result has to be a new xsl file (test.fo), but full of
tags from the xslfo namespace.
So that means lots of xslfo tags in test.xsl; which means -- unless someone
knows a way around this -- writing all the tags as e.g.
<simple-page-master>. Ugly and tedious. Is there some xsl escape
command or something that will allow me to type eg <single-page-master>
instead in test.xsl?
Note: in test.fo, I will have eg <single-page-master> instead of
<fo:single-page-master>, because I will make the fo namespace the default
namespace in test.fo. Just to save more typing; this shouldn't affect my
main problem here.
TMIA,
