[xep-support] Re: background image on title page

[Michael Damkier]

Hello,
Thank you for your answer. The quick word is that it worked! The back story
is that I had to learn a lot about page masters, sequences, the
user.pagemasters template, etc. (I am using DocBook XSL 1.75.2).
Following the instructions in Bob Stayton's DocBook XSL book saw me through..
Thank you,
- Michael
