Hi Mat, I followed your instructions, but unfortunately I still run into the same error and the command a2x -f pdf is still returning the same error:

I'm unsure placing the docbookx.dtd under /usr/ local/Cellar/asciidoc/8.6.1/etc/asciidoc/ which is the folder where asciidoc was installed. I installed is using Homebrew.
