+== How can I customize PDF files generated by dblatex?
+
+There are a number of dblatex XSL parameters that can be used to
+customize PDF output. You can set them globally in the AsciiDoc
+`./dblatex/asciidoc-dblatex.xsl` configuration file or you can also
+pass them on the a2x(1) command-line. Here are some examples:
+
+The
+http://dblatex.sourceforge.net/doc/manual/latex.output.revhistory.html[latex.output.revhistory]
+parameter is used to supress the revision history:
+
+ a2x -f pdf --dblatex-opts "-P latex.output.revhistory=0" doc/article.txt
+
+The
+http://dblatex.sourceforge.net/doc/manual/doc.layout.html[doc.layout]
+parameter is used to include the cover page and document body (i.e. excludes
+table of contents and index), the
+http://dblatex.sourceforge.net/doc/manual/doc.publisher.show.html[doc.publisher.show]
+parameter is used to exclude the cover page logo:
