DocBook: Roundtripping of custom OOo-styles
Last modified: 2013-01-29 21:42:23 UTC
Currently, the DocBook import/export feature is capable of roundtripping some DocBook-specific element names, but it's not capable of roundtripping arbitrary custom OOo-Styles. Keeping style names available through a roundtrip (for example by using DocBook's filter attribute) would allow true separation of styleds and formatting but would still preserve style information. At the same time, having all style names available in DocBook would provide a hook for more flexible postprocessing without modifying the DocBook format. It seems that the filter attribute in DocBook has been created for exactly for such purposes. Would any of the maintainers be interested in having support for this in future versions of the docbook-filters? I might be interested in trying to extend the docbook import/export filters, provided that there is interest in picking this up for future OOo-Versions.
@sus: I have set the target to "OOO please help" because the enhancements to the SAMPLE filter of docbook also could be made by others.
