9. Things for LaTeX users to remember
- No use is made of LaTeX high-level constructs. No sections,
no lists, no cross-refs, no bibliographies; on the other hand,
some extensions in the
fotex:
namespace are supported (eg to get Acrobat bookmarks) - XSL FO's underlying character set is Unicode; by default, entities are mapped to their Unicode position;
- All vertical and horizontal space is explicit in the specification
- Page and line breaking is left to TeX: the rest is up to you.
