Hi Lex, thank you for the explanation, I still don't get it right.
Here's what I did: I copied the example XML from the docbook spec into a file named "mySourceFileBaseName-revhistory.xml". I executed "a2x -f pdf --attribute revhistory mySourceFileBaseName.txt" The content of the *-revhistory.xml is not respected, the version string from my header is still used. I don't know what "header IIUC" stands for and how to add the attribute to the header. If I add the line ":revhistory:" as the first line of my document I get an xmllint error. Can you tell what I'm missing or doing wrong? Thank you in advance! Andreas Piening Am Donnerstag, 3.
