I have used both cygwin and mingw. I prefer mingw because cygwin has so
many bugs, and in fact the latest version does not work with the FOP
bash script. However, as others pointed out, you can generate PDF from
the windows shell. I prefer not to use the Windows shell because it has
so many limitation compared to a unix-like shell.

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.

Hi guys, have you ever used Docbook to generate PDFs in Windows?
Did you use Cygwin? If not, would you recommend anything else?
