Foldout Page

[ptc-2903760]

Does anyone know how to create a foldout page in Arbortext Editor 5.3? I'd appreciate the instructions. Jeanette

You need to create a pageset and tie it to the element that triggers the fold out pageset.

This was a problem for me before. Now we find a solution in XSL-FO using Arbortext Publish Engine:

Example:

We have a manual with structure like this:

Book

+ chapter

+ section

+ para|table|list|graphic

We start a fo:page-sequance at each chapter. In some case, a graphic or table is on a fold out page. Whe we do is: if we see graphic need to be on a foldout page, we start fo:page-sequance when match this graphic elememtn.

The output what I was thinking is:

<fo:root>

<fo:layout-master-set>

</fo:layout-master-set>

<fo:page-sequance>

#Content here.

<fo:page-sequance>

#graphic here.

</fo:page-sequance>

#content here

</fo:page-sequance>

</fo:root>

But the Arbortext seems did some process for me, the following is the real xsl-fo:

<fo:root>

<fo:layout-master-set>

</fo:layout-master-set>

<fo:page-sequance>

#Content here.

</fo:page-sequance>

<fo:page-sequance>

#graphic here.

</fo:page-sequance>

<fo:page-sequance>

#content here

</fo:page-sequance>

</fo:root>

This works fine for me.

I am using Arbortext 5.3 M150.
