From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Bill Brooks To: docbook-tools-discuss@sources.redhat.com Subject: .pdf generation error using the "newer" tools Date: Wed, 27 Dec 2000 06:36:00 -0000 Message-id: X-SW-Source: 2000/msg00379.html Okay, I'm using the rpm's of the docbook tools. I did a clean install of RedHat 6.2, and followed the recommendation of the page at http://i18n.kde.org/doc/install.html by de-installing the RPM's that ship with RedHat and installing the following: docbook-dtd30-sgml-1.0-6.noarch.rpm docbook-dtd31-sgml-1.0-6.noarch.rpm docbook-dtd40-sgml-1.0-6.noarch.rpm docbook-dtd41-sgml-1.0-6.noarch.rpm docbook-style-dsssl-1.57-2.noarch.rpm docbook-utils-0.5.5-1.noarch.rpm jade-1.2.1-6.i386.rpm jadetex-2.20-2.noarch.rpm perl-SGMLSpm-1.03ii-3.noarch.rpm sgml-common-0.3-1.noarch.rpm I copied the simple "Hello World" example from http://nis-www.lanl.gov/~rosalia/mydocs/docbook-intro/get-going.html#HELLO-WORLD into a file called "helloworld.docbook". As people have mailed this list pointing out, the documentation on the sources site is outdated, so I had to guess as to what flags would work with the docbook utilities. Here's what I tried: docbook2pdf \ ? -c /usr/share/sgml/docbook/sgml-dtd-3.1/catalog \ ? -d /usr/share/sgml/docbook/dsssl-stylesheets-1.57/print/docbook.dsl helloworld.docbook Is this right? I'd be happy to mail Mark Galassi a patch to the http://sources.redhat.com/docbook-tools/ web page that documents how to use the flags with the file locations where the RPM's put things if someone can get me started on the right path. Also, it seems like there is a problem actually producing a .pdf, here's what I get: Using catalogs: /etc/sgml/sgml-docbook-3.0.cat, /usr/share/sgml/docbook/sgml-dtd-3.1/catalog Using stylesheet: /usr/share/sgml/docbook/dsssl-stylesheets-1.57/print/docbook.dsl Working on: /home/wbrooks/box/work/foo/helloworld.docbook This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159-13d (Web2C 7.3.1) (Fatal format file error; I'm stymied) ...are other people able to get this working?
