After the responses to my question about publishing in both print and HTML format I decided to have a go with XML, XSL and FOP.
I now have FOP installed though I am little disapointed that the only Java VM it seems to work with is a non-free one, but it now seems to be working.
I now have a mostly complete stylesheet for print which just needs some tuning to make it look prettier but it also seems that I am forever having to repeat font attributes in various different bits of the stylesheet. What I would like to do if I can is to define some defaults for the font attributes to apply to the whole document and then the style template for the each of the various XML elements can just override the ones it needs to. Does anyone know how to do this?
