[xep-support] Numerous warnings

Hello Graham,

Regarding 'span' warning cited in your mail: XSL-FO specification
allows  fo:block with 'span' property set to 'all' only as a direct
child of fo:flow. Then XEP encounter spanning block nested deeper
in the document it issues a warning. It seems to be a known problem
with Docbook stylesheets: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/docbook-apps/200310/msg00242.html
Though I don't know that's the status of this issue for the current
Docbook stylesheets - you may want to ask about it on the docbook-apps
mailing list.

Best regards,
Alexander Peshkov                             mailto:peshkov at renderx.com

HG> Many thanks for the tip.
HG> Yes it does! Changing 12 into 12pt cleared the warnings about font-size.
 
HG> Cheers Graham

HG> Doesn't the font-size attribute need a unit with the value e.g. 12pt,
HG> 12mm? 

HG> Not sure on the 'span' error.

HG> Here are just a couple

HG> Can anybody give me a clue as to where to start looking to splat these
HG> warnings? 
HG> I cannot beleive that so many warnings can be "Normal" !
