Hi David, Thank you for pointing that out. I am new to using the plugins and didn't realize this. So, I attempted to follow your advice:
heather-phipps-computer:org.apache.forrest.plugin.output.pdf Heather$ /Users/Heather/apache-forrest-0.8/tools/ant/bin/ant local-deploy Buildfile: build.xml init-build-compiler: echo-init: [echo] [echo] -------------------------------------------------------------- [echo] [echo] Using Apache Ant version 1.6.5 compiled on May 16 2006 [echo] Build file /Users/Heather/apache-forrest-0.8/plugins/org.apache.forrest.plugin.output.pdf/build.xml [echo] Use 'build.[sh|bat] -projecthelp' to see other options.
