My answer assumes that you are using ditac.bat and not XMLmind XSL Utility (which includes FOP). > > I’m using it on Windows 7 (calling on Cygwin actually) Cygwin is definitely not supported by us.

The documentation is correct: http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/_distrib/doc/manual/install.html You are assumed to have downloaded FOP from this site: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/1.0/index.html The distribution indeed includes fop.bat: --- /opt/fop$ ls build/ examples/ fop.cmd KEYS NOTICE conf/ fop* fop.js lib/ README docs/ fop.bat javadocs/ LICENSE status.xml --- If you don't want to do this because you already have FOP bundled with one of your applications, then recreate a simplified fop.bat by hand or keep using "java -jar fop.jar" if it works for you (never did this myself). -- XMLmind DITA Converter Support List [email protected] http://www.xmlmind.com/mailman/listinfo/ditac-support
