Hi!

Sorry, if my problem was discussed on this list, I am very new to DocBook.

I have a DocBook document starting with
<!DOCTYPE informaltable PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD Docbook XML V4.1//EN"
                  "/usr/share/sgml/docbook/sgml-dtd-4.1/docbook.dtd">
        <informaltable orient="land" frame="all">        <tgroup cols="11">

and I want it to convert to PDF using landscape page orientation.
I use db2pdf to do this. But the only way I found to convert paper type is
to edit docbook-utils.dsl located in /usr/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.6.14
on my system. Is it possible to pass this parameter somehow from the
command line or  from my DocBook sources?

regards
hs
