FOP, Index and duplicate page number

[Venkatesan Manickam <Ve...@exelaonline.com>]

Hi all,

I need to work on Index for very large document.

The Index is formatted like this:

Albert ................................... 4, 5
Alfred ................................... 6, 10, 11

It works fine, but sometimes there are several reference on the same pages.

The results it is not so good:

Albert ................................... 4, 5, 5, 5
Alfred ................................... 6, 10, 10, 10, 11, 11

It seems from the FO specs that a best result like this:

Albert ................................... 4, 5
Alfred ................................... 6, 10, 11

It's possible to achieve this in Apache FOP? Please, Somebody give me a suggestion?

Regards,

Venkatesan

FOP doesn't support extended FO features for Indexing, see https://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/compliance.html

For DocBook outputs there is a workaround http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/IndexCleanup.html, which could be most likely adapted for your specific use case.

Jan
