Depends where you want <version> info to go.  The footer seems like a
sensible place, in which case footerinfo.xsl

Hmm, I don't know.  I haven't done much with document2fo.xsl.  It's been
kicking around Apache ever since (IIRC) Berin wrote it for Avalon.  I
have a much better one for Anteater I'll have to integrate at some stage
:)

I'd suggest running Forrest as a webapp, and then doing realtime
experiments with
build/webapp/resources/skins/common/xslt/fo/document2fo.xsl

hm, I think I must be more precise. What I now have (concerning the first page 
of a pdf-file) is:
------------------------------------------
The title of this wonderful document

the content of <version>

The honorable authors

...

Footer: the content of <version>
-----------------------------------------

What I would like to have is:
-----------------------------------------
The title of this wonderful document

The honorable authors

...

Footer: the content of <version>

-----------------------------------------

Thank you very much,

I guess that's because of this in document2fo.xsl:

    <fo:static-content flow-name="first-footer">
      <fo:block
        border-top="0.25pt solid"
        padding-before="6pt"
        text-align="center">
        <xsl:apply-templates select="footer"/>
      </fo:block>
      <fo:block
        text-align="start">
        Page <fo:page-number/>
      </fo:block>
      <xsl:call-template name="info"/>
    </fo:static-content>

Perhaps specify the version there instead of footerinfo.xsl (which defines
'info'), or make 'info' take a param specifying whether to display the version.

Hi,

good idea, I applied it there, thank you! But now I still have the problem, 
that the <version>-info not only appears at the footer but also between the 
title of the document and the <authors> info on the first page.
Any hints ?

TIA
Stephan
