Re: [docbook-apps] Setting font color in tables and in the preface title

[I'm moving this over to docbook-apps where stylesheet issues are discussed]

Hi,
There is no processing instruction for text color.  However, the stylesheets
have a template named 'table.cell.block.properties' that is called at the
start of the fo:block inside each table cell.  This is a template, not an
attribute set.  But the effect is the same: to add attributes to the
fo:block based on some conditional logic.  The context node for the template
is the entry element being processed, so you can check for a PI or use some
other test to output attributes.  See:

http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/PrintTableStyles.html#table.cell.block.properties

For the preface title, you can try adding a color attribute in the titlepage
spec file and generate a new titlepage templates module.   But preface,
chapter, and appendix all use the 'component.title' named template, and if
you customized that you could get the color on all of them.
