Hi Stuart,
thank you very much.
Unfortunately it does not work. Nothing happens.
I now solved the problem by writing the legalnotice directly into the
[header] declaration in docbook.conf.. I also tried to include the
article-docinfo file here, which works but always includes an
additional '?' into the article.xml. So of course it was not possible
to generate a pdf out of this.
I am not happy with my solution, because now I can not use the same
docbook.conf for all projects. But in the moment I don't know how to
make it better.
Do you have any idea what is going wrong?
Run asciidoc with the --verbose option you should see the docinfo file being
included, something like:
asciidoc: article.txt: line 4: evaluating:
{include:/home/srackham/projects/asciidoc/trunk/doc/article-docinfo.xml}
If it doesn't work post your commands along with the outputs.
Cheers, Stuart
Kind regards
Alex

Hello everyone,
I am generating a user manual with the help of asciidoc. I generate a
pdf by creating a docbook file and then converting this to pdf with
the help of a2x and docbook. The type of my document is 'article'.
Know I want to put some licence and copyright information (More than
20 lines) between the title page and the TOC, but I do not see how to
do this. I do not really know if this is a asciidoc or more a dblatex
problem.
Any idea?
Define the 'docinfo' attribute and include a *-docinfo.xml document. See section
'5.2.1. Additional document header information' in the User Guide:
http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/userguide.html#X95
AsciiDoc ships with an example docinfo file, article-docinfo.xml:
http://code.google.com/p/asciidoc/source/browse/doc/article-docinfo.xml
You would need to add a <legalnotice> element for multi-paragraph license info
e.g.
<legalnotice>

</legalnotice>
Then generate your PDF with e.g.
a2x -a docinfo mydoc.txt
Cheers, Stuart
