There are 3 sets of column-styles, and jade uses the oldest one. OTOH openjade refuses to process Norm's stylesheets - and I it similarly barfs on my stylesheet customizations. $ openjade -t tex -d /usr/lib/sgml/stylesheet/dsssl/docbook/nwalsh/print/docbook.dsl sample-tbl.docbook openjade:/usr/lib/sgml/stylesheet/dsssl/docbook/nwalsh/print/dbtable.dsl:404:5:E: flow object not accepted by port; only table-column flow objects followed by table-row or table-cell flow objects allowd $ openjade -v openjade:I: "OpenJade" version "1.4devel" openjade:I: "OpenSP" version "1.5pre5" Is openjade usable at all ? Is it just 1.4devel that is not stabilized enough, and 1.3 should be used ? It is also much MUCH slower than jade at processing documents :( -- Yann Dirson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.alcove.com/ Free-Software Engineer Ing�nieur Logiciel Libre Free-Software time Coordinator Responsable du temps Informatique Libre ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from this elist send a message with the single word "unsubscribe" in the body to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
