24 Feb '05

Dear all, I am having difficulty creating a pdf (I'm using the Samba-docs tree just for pdf's) I get this error: /usr/bin/xsltproc --output howto.tex xslt/latex.xsl tmp/howto.xml compilation error: file http://db2latex.sourceforge.net/xsl/qandaset.mod.xsl line 366 element template xsl:template: error duplicate name 'question.answer.label' make: *** [howto.tex] Error 5 There are only 3/4 hits on google :-( PS. This is actually being used to build the Amanda manual, as I am converting the Amanda chapter in the O'reilly book to Docbook XML. -- Kind Regards, Gavin Henry. Managing Director.

by Gavin Henry 08 Feb '05

Dear all, Just been chatting to Tim Waugh via irc and I am going to start work on adding FOP support to xmlto, in the hope of fixing the current Docbook XML PDF generation problems. I'll let you know how I get on over the next few days/weeks. FOP: http://xml.apache.org/fop/ Gavin. -- Kind Regards, Gavin Henry. Managing Director.

EPS and make PDF
by Stuart Ellis 08 Feb '05

08 Feb '05

In case this information is useful: - When PDF generation worked the order of the EPS and PNG <imagedata> tags didn't seem to matter, as it worked either way (albeit with broken headers). - PDF generation fails unless the file paths in <figure> do *not* have an initial dot: "figs/boot.eps" works, but "./figs/boot.eps" doesn't - EPS in the Installation Guide were generated with ImageMagick using "convert -density", e.g. convert -density 200 in.png ps3:out.eps - 800x600 images were created at 200 dpi, 640x480 images at 160 dpi. - EPS Levels 1 and 2 generate files that are 500k+ in size, so Level 3 was used. - PDF generation fails anyway with latest versions of the IG document: -- Begin [se@server install-guide]$ make pdf xsl:attribute-set : use-attribute-sets recursion detected xsl:attribute-set : use-attribute-sets recursion detected xsl:attribute-set : use-attribute-sets recursion detected xsl:attribute-set : use-attribute-sets recursion detected xsl:attribute-set : use-attribute-sets recursion detected xsl:attribute-set : use-attribute-sets recursion detected xsl:attribute-set : use-attribute-sets recursion detected xsl:attribute-set : use-attribute-sets recursion detected xsl:attribute-set : use-attribute-sets recursion detected xsl:attribute-set : use-attribute-sets recursion detected xsl:attribute-set : use-attribute-sets recursion detected xsl:attribute-set : use-attribute-sets recursion detected Making portrait pages on A4 paper (210mmx297mm) This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159-1.10b (Web2C 7.4.5) (./tmp.fo{/usr/share/texmf/pdftex/config/pdftex.cfg} LaTeX2e <2001/06/01> Babel <v3.7h> and hyphenation patterns for american, french, german, ngerman, n ohyphenation, loaded. xmltex version: 2002/06/25 v1.9 (Exp): (/usr/share/texmf/tex/xmltex/xmltex.cfg) No File: tmp.cfg (/usr/share/texmf/tex/xmltex/iso-8859-1.xmt) (/usr/share/texmf/tex/xmltex/passivetex/fotex.xmt) (/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/base/article.cls Document Class: article 2001/04/21 v1.4e Standard LaTeX document class (/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/base/size10.clo)) (/usr/share/texmf/tex/xmltex/passivetex/fotex.sty ) No file tmp.aux.

It's pretty straightforward. http://fedora.redhat.com/participate/documentation-quick-start/ will give you a good overview of the process. After that, it's picking a topic, reading http://fedora.redhat.com/participate/documentation- guide/ , checking out example tutorial from CVS, and writing. Please take a look at those pages, let us know if you have any questions. cheers - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, RHCE * Sr. Tech Writer * http://people.redhat.com/kwade/ gpg fingerprint: 2680 DBFD D968 3141 0115 5F1B D992 0E06 AD0E 0C41 IT executives rate Red Hat #1 for value http://www.redhat.com/promo/vendor/
