Re: [css2xslfo-support] No output from CSStoXSLFO.convert(...)

[<wer...@re...>]

Hi Conny,

Both your propositions would work. Without amending the input
document you would have to go via the User Agent style sheet
way. That is still possible if you take the xhtml.css and
xhtml_print.css files from the CSSToXSLFO distribution and
put them in a central place. All your style sheets would then
have to import xhtml_print.css and themselves be speficied as
User Agent style sheet.

Best regards,

Werner.
