Background
When transforming SUSE AI (for example,
DC-AI-deployment) into a bigfile, you end up with this structure:Effect
The empty preface title leads to an odd empty link in the left side TOC. Additionally, the title vanishes.
Proposal
This fix adds additional templates that deals with an empty preface title. If the stylesheet detects such structure, it moves everything inside the
<preface>moved into an<abstract>placed inside an<info>.This is the usual structure we have with Smart Docs.
