Re: [docbook] Title and abstract spanning over more columns

[Monika Halfmann <halfmann at halfmann-fischer dot de>]

Hi Bob,
thanks a lot!
So far this works. I just copied the parameters and the part for title 
and abstract from your file into my stylesheet. According to the 
fo:flow/fo:block "problem" I lost some of the formatting abilities: my 
customised titlepage.xsl doesn't work anymore. Title, author and 
abstract are formatted with an attribute set now, but I cannot find an 
attribute/parameter for handling left and right margins of the 
abstract. Is there any?
