Re: [docbook-apps] Chapter Title Customizations and Spacing


I presume you are talking about FO customization. A CSS stylesheet
would handle title customization for HTML output.

As you found, the stylesheets are not consistent about using
property sets for titles.  
All titles can be customized using the titlepage.templates.xml
specification file.  You can add properties to the spec file
for chapter titles, and regenerate the titlepage.templates.xsl
stylesheet module.  See my book for more information.  

In the case of chapter, the spec file indicates
that the title is generated using a template named 'component.title,
which resides in the fo/component.xsl  stylesheet file.  The
component.title template is also used for appedices, indices,
and other elements at that level.  If you
want to rearrange the chapter title more than you can
with just properties, you
can specify a new template name in the spec file, such
as 'chapter.title', and write
your own template similar to component.title.
