  <shortdesc>This scenario walks through the process of creating a very simple plug-in
      (<codeph>com.example.print-pdf</codeph>) that creates a new transformation type: <option>print-pdf</option>. </shortdesc>

      <p>The <option>print-pdf</option> transformation has the following characteristics:</p>
      <ul>
        <li>Uses A4 paper </li>
        <li>Renders figures with a title at the top and a description at the bottom</li>
        <li>Use em dashes as the symbols for unordered lists</li>
      </ul>
    </context>
    <steps>
      <step>
        <cmd>In the <filepath>plugins</filepath> directory, create a directory named
            <filepath>com.example.print-pdf</filepath>.</cmd>
      </step>
      <step>
        <cmd>In the new <filepath>com.example.print-pdf</filepath> directory, create a plug-in configuration file
            (<filepath>plugin.xml</filepath>) that declares the new <option>print-pdf</option> transformation and its
          dependencies.</cmd>

          </fig>
        </info>
      </step>
      <step>
        <cmd>Add an Ant script (<filepath>integrator.xml</filepath>) to define the transformation type.</cmd>

          </fig></info>
      </step>
      <step>
        <cmd>In the new plug-in directory, add a <filepath>cfg/catalog.xml</filepath> file that specifies the custom
          XSLT style sheets.</cmd>

          <fig>
            <title><filepath>cfg/catalog.xml</filepath> file</title>
            <codeblock outputclass="language-xml normalize-space show-line-numbers show-whitespace"><coderef href="../samples/plugins/com.example.print-pdf/cfg/catalog.xml"/></codeblock>
          </fig>
        </stepxmp>
      </step>
      <step>
        <cmd>Create the <filepath>cfg/fo/attrs/custom.xsl</filepath> file, and add attribute and variable overrides to
          it.</cmd>
        <stepxmp>For example, add the following variables to change the page size to A4.<fig>
            <title><filepath>cfg/fo/attrs/custom.xsl</filepath> file</title>
            <codeblock outputclass="language-xml normalize-space show-line-numbers show-whitespace"><coderef href="../samples/plugins/com.example.print-pdf/cfg/fo/attrs/custom.xsl"/></codeblock>
          </fig></stepxmp>
      </step>
      <step>
        <cmd>Create the <filepath>cfg/fo/xsl/custom.xsl</filepath> file, and add XSLT overrides to it.</cmd>
        <stepxmp>For example, the following code changes the rendering of <xmlelement>figure</xmlelement> elements.<fig>
            <title><filepath>cfg/fo/xsl/custom.xsl</filepath> file</title>
            <codeblock outputclass="language-xml normalize-space show-line-numbers show-whitespace"><coderef href="../samples/plugins/com.example.print-pdf/cfg/fo/xsl/custom.xsl"/></codeblock>
          </fig></stepxmp>
      </step>
      <step>
        <cmd>Create an English-language variable-definition file (<filepath>cfg/common/vars/en.xml</filepath>) and make
          any necessary modifications to it.</cmd>
        <stepxmp>For example, the following code removes the period after the number for an ordered-list item; it also
          specifies that the bullet for an unordered list item should be an em dash.<fig>
            <title><filepath>cfg/common/vars/en.xml</filepath> file</title>
            <codeblock outputclass="language-xml normalize-space show-line-numbers show-whitespace"><coderef href="../samples/plugins/com.example.print-pdf/cfg/common/vars/en.xml"/></codeblock>
