Thank you for your decent bug report. This is indeed a bug, but which
has been fixed in v2.3.1 (November 5, 2012).
Excerpts from http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/changes.html#v2.3.1
---
When a bookmap contained a figurelist (or a tablelist) and the document
being converted contained no figures (or no tables), the conversion to
PDF using FOP failed with a org.apache.fop.fo.ValidationException:
"fo:list-block" is missing child elements. Required content model:
marker* (list-item)+.
---
You are using v2.0.4 (July 22, 2011). I strongly recommend that you
upgrade to latest version.
However if, for an unknown reason, you cannot upgrade, this bug is very
easy to fix by modifying your old copy of
DITAC_INSTALL_DIR/xsl/fo/ditac_figureList.xsl
Basically you should replace something like:
---
<fo:list-block xsl:use-attribute-sets="booklist">
<xsl:apply-templates
select="$ditacLists/ditac:figureList/ditac:figure"/>
</fo:list-block>
---
by something like:
---
<xsl:variable name="items"
select="$ditacLists/ditac:figureList/ditac:figure"/>
<xsl:if test="exists($items)">
<fo:list-block xsl:use-attribute-sets="booklist">
<xsl:apply-templates select="$items"/>
</fo:list-block>
</xsl:if>
---
Notice the <xsl:if test="exists($items)"></xsl:if> block.
This kind of change must be done in 3 places: for figures, tables and
examples.
Of course, if you cannot program XSLT 2.0, please don't do it! Instead
please try to upgrade to latest version of ditac.

*A description of the problem.*
i have a list of dita files under an item directory i select from
to make up a ditamap. If the dita files that make up the ditamap do
not contain any images
the following commands for the embedded DITAC
String[] args = { "-vvv",
"-t", xslDirURL.toExternalForm() +
"fo/customize/custom_fo.xsl",
"-frontmatter", "toc,figurelist+tablelist",
"-p", "title-page", xslDirURL.toExternalForm()

"-p", "base-font-size", "8pt",
"-p", "number", "all",
"-p", "pdf-outline", "yes",
outFile.getPath(),
inFile.getPath() };
will produce the error highlighted in blue the DITAC log show below

If i run the same ditamap using XMLmind XSL Utility with these
options set
The error does not occur.
I would like to configure the embedded DITAC so that it behaves the
same way. I would like to do this because i do not know in advance
if a ditamap is referencing a dita file which may or may not contain
an image to adjust the DITAC commands like so
* for when there is no image/figure
o "-frontmatter", "toc,tablelist",
* for when there is an image/figure
o "-frontmatter", "toc,figurelist+tablelist",
*The version of XMLmind DITA Converter (ditac for short). Execute "ditac **
**-version" to display this version. **
***

*The name and version of the operating system used to run ditac. **
***
