Subject: Jadetex and pdftex not playing nice together
Date: Wed, 27 Dec 2000 06:36:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.10.10008101226290.9089-100000@traveller.rlf.org> (raw)

I have been using pdftex 14.f for some time, but when I try to run
docbook2pdf using the new docbooktools, I get the following message:

[tporter@traveller tporter]$ docbook2pdf dbt.sgml
Using catalogs: /etc/sgml/sgml-docbook-3.1.cat
Using stylesheet:
/usr/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.5/docbook-utils.dsl#print
Working on: /home/tporter/dbt.sgml
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159-14f-released-20000525 (Web2C 7.3.2x)
(Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)

Running pdflatex against a latex file works fine.  Running texexec --pdf
against a ConTeXt input file also works fine.  There just seems to me a
mismatch against jade/jadetex somewhere.

I had this same problem with the old docbook-tools as well, so I do not
think it is due to the new tool-set.

I know this is something simple, but I do not think I have the needed
input files to regenerate the needed format file.  Has anyone else seen
this?  Any hints on how to resolve it?

TIA
