The error message is misleading, but the fact is that the convertdoc utility will not work in Personal Edition. This is documented here: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/persoedition.html Download and install an evaluation key in your Personal Edition (in order to transform it to an Evaluation Edition) if you want to give the convertdoc utility a try. More information in http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/evaluate.html > > [ccl at ccl ~]$ convertdoc -v docb.toHTML testfile.xml Moreover this command line is incorrect (see http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/commands/convertdoc.html) and would fail even with Professional Edition. Instead try: --- $ convertdoc -v docb.toHTML testfile.xml -u . --- There is no way to guess the name and parameters of the process commands used by convertdoc. You really need to read the XXE configuration file where process commands have been defined. In your case, you need to read XXE_install_dir/addon/config/docbook/xslMenu.incl.
