How to apply stylesheets to docbook?
Hi all -
I have been trying to figure out how to make something useful out of
docbook documents. I'd like to render to pdf, latex, groff, and html, but
available documentation is archaic and conflicting.
Where do I start? I'd previously been trying with jade, but I caught wind
that sgml-tools gained support for docbook 3.1. This doesn't appear to be
true...
Executing sgml2latex on a minimal document:
..~/docs$ sgml2latex DB-article.sgml
Processing file DB-article.sgml
/usr/bin/sgmlsasp: can't open
/usr/lib/sgml-tools/dist/article/latex2e/mapping': No such file or directory
Executing jade on the same minimal document:
..~/docs$ jade -t tex DB-article.sgml -d
/usr/lib/sgml/stylesheet/dsssl/docbook/nwalsh/print/docbook.dsl -o
DB-article.tex
[about 500 lines of errors follow]
Even norm walsh's book doesn't offer any help here. Ideas anyone? ;)
