Take a look at this chapter from the Docbook XSL Guide: http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/InstallingAnFO.html
That guide, along with the Docbook Definitive Guide are indispensible. 98% of problems I've had are addressed in one of those these two books. http://docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/docbook.html Personally, I use Cygwin, xsltproc, FOP, and a makefile for processing. (I'd kill to have a Unixy box at work instead of XP, but that's really another matter). -David <dg...@mueller-inc.com> From: deannel...@aol.com [mailto:deannel...@aol.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2012 9:59 AM To: yoursurrogate...@gmail.com; docbook-apps@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] Making PDFs in Windows Its not necessary to use Cygwin or MinGW. I use a batch file that calls XSLTPROC and FOP to generate PDFs under Windows. Check our Bob Stayton's book for more info. Regards, Dean Nelson In a message dated 4/18/2012 6:51:52 A.M.
