RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: sub/superscript in Apache's FOP 0.20.4 does not work?

[Jeff Beal <jeff dot beal at ansys dot com>]

Add these two templates to your XSL customization layer to get
sub/superscripts in FOP:

<xsl:template name="inline.superscriptseq">
  <xsl:param name="content">
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:param>
  <fo:inline font-size="90%">
    <fo:inline vertical-align="super">
      <xsl:copy-of select="$content"/>
    </fo:inline>
  </fo:inline>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template name="inline.subscriptseq">
  <xsl:param name="content">
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:param>
    <fo:inline font-size="90%">
  <fo:inline vertical-align="sub">
    <xsl:copy-of select="$content"/>
  </fo:inline>
  </fo:inline>
</xsl:template>

Ack. Is there no other way to do superscript in Apache's FOP then?

I will try openjade then.
