Hi,

I'm testing my nearly done version of the next issue of the BogoMips
mini-Howto (at last a new one), now in full blown DocBook XML. Runs with
FOP to create a PDF file does give a readable file, but the layout is
terrible: all one long text without useful pagination (e.g., per section
start), huge letters for section and subsection titles, mixture of serif
and non-serif fonts. And I get a lot of messages about
background-position and other warnings.

I'm running the command:
>> fop -xsl /usr/share/sgml/......./tldp-print.xsl -xml bogomips.xml
-pdf b.pdf

Find the two important files (under embargo, not for publication yet)
here:

http://www.clifton.nl/other/bogomips.xml

http://www.clifton.nl/other/b.pdf

Any help would be appreciated.
Met vriendelijke groeten, Wim van Dorst
