[rules-dev] docbook - ensuring images fit correctly in PDF

[Michael Anstis]

Yes, I tested both....

Sadly whilst large images are scaled correctly (to fit) smaller images are
expanded to fit the page width :(

So, I try to stick the attribute on large images; but ultimately I still
generate the PDF and apply the "scalefit" attribute to any images that don't
fit.
