Feature request: :front-cover-image: for asciidoctor-fopub

See original GitHub issue

This post was updated on Oct 27, 2016; 10:12am. I just discovered the new attribute :front-cover-image: for asciidoctor-pdf. I will try to implement something similar for asciidoctor-fopub. Help or ideas are very much appreciated.

   :notitle:
   :front-cover-image: path/to/my/titlepage-image.svg

It will render the svg-image instead of a titlepage.

Thank you!

Concerning the asciidoctor xml output, this is what docbook expects: See cover

<book xmlns='http://docbook.org/ns/docbook'>
<info>
  <title>DocBook</title>
  <subtitle>The Definitive Guide</subtitle>
  <!-- THIS IS FRONT COVER -->
  <cover>
    <mediaobject>
      <imageobject>
    <imagedata fileref="graphics/duck-cover.png">
    </imagedata>
      </imageobject>
    </mediaobject>
  </cover>
  <!-- THIS IS BACK COVER -->
  <cover>
    <mediaobject>
      <imageobject>
    <imagedata fileref="graphics/duck-backcover.png"/>
      </imageobject>
    </mediaobject>
  </cover>

Make asciidoctor translate :front-cover-image: to <cover> when -b docbook

I’d be glad to implement this. We can support both front and back. Great idea. Can you file in issue in asciidoctor core?
