Looks a bit better if you modify the Jamfile using the patch below, the main outstanding issues are the very long code blocks - code blocks are formatted as "keep together" which causes them to start on a new page if they're too big for a page, this is part of the "monospace.verbatim.properties" attribute set, so we can't override on the command line (ie in the Jamfile), only in an xsl customisation layer. Normally "keep-together" is what we want escpecially for smallish code blocks, but it causes issues for very long blocks, is there any way these can be split up? Hmm, maybe not on looking again :-(
Oh and the png image is too large for the page, can you generate an SVG for this, it would look much nicer :-)
Thanks for the help. I've applied your changes, adjusted the PNG's pixels per inch so it isn't so huge, added an SVG and a few other tweaks. There's a new pdf at the same location: http://unordered.nfshost.com/pdfs/unordered.pdf I've also tried generating a single html page and creating a pdf from that using prince (http://www.princexml.com/). This approach should give us a little more control over page breaks using CSS. Although the html output isn't ideal for this kind of thing. The result so far is at: http://unordered.nfshost.com/pdfs/unordered-prince.pdf Daniel
