Forgot to mention that FOP does provide an extension that is supposed to make named destinations work: https://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/2.5/extensions.html#named-destinations When the DocBook stylesheet param fop1.extensions="1" is set, the stylesheet writes the set of <fox:destination> elements into the FO file for that purpose. But they don't seem to actually work in the PDF. There is an open bug report on this at the Apache site: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-2839 Bob Stayton [email protected] On 7/10/2020 10:30 AM, Bob Stayton wrote: > > The problem with FOP, including version 2.5, is that it does not write > the original ID values from the DocBook file into the PDF, but > substitutes different IDs.
