(I had to test it just to be sure.) Hi Benoît, I want to inform you of dblatex Debian BTS report #627501 [1], wich asks for a more detailled explanation of the description of option --xsl-user in the manual page and in the user manual: -p xsl_user, --xsl-user=xsl_user An XSL user stylesheet to use. Several user stylesheets can be specified, but the option order is meaningful. According to my understanding it works as follows: If the command line is "-p user_1.xsl -p user_2.xsl" where user_1.xsl sets option A to value B and user_2.xsl sets option A to value C, the effective value of option A is C. It's quite difficult to express this in a compact way, perhaps something like this: In case of contradictive option settings in different user stylesheets the stylesheet specified later on the command line takes precedence. You might also want to consider the suggestion Osamu made [2], although his remark about parsing order IMHO is too technical.
