This produces totally unacceptable output. > Some maybe we should fix the converters before we can release doc-base? debiandoc-sgml *works*! I've been using it for HTML, TeX, PS and text. It works pretty fine. debiandoc has nothing to do with the linuxdoc DTD. An alternative would be the using of the DocBook DTD with jade and the docbook-stylesheets. With it you are able to produce at least rtf, (tex - not all feature are working today) and html documents - I'm doing it and O'Reilly is producing many books with it including the print and the html version for the CD , i.e. the JAVA books.
