I'm not sure what the problem is here, as your process looks correct. Can you compare your generated titlepage.xsl to the original fo/titlepage.templates.xsl that is included with the distribution? They should be equivalent, modulo whitespace variations.
Thank your for your reply. Please, be patient, I have reproduced the experiment, but since I do not modify any file, I am using the distribution files directly, like this: xsltproc --output titlepage.xsl \ /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl/fo/titlepage.xsl \ /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl/fo/titlepage.templates.xml The command above created the new titlepage.xsl file in the local directory. Now I can compare the sizes of both xsl files: 799 lines for the original one (/usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl/fo/titlepage.xsl) 1266 lines for the newly created one If I open the newly created file in an editor, I see *existing* lines that are empty. The file contains only the following non-empty line line 1: <?xml version="1.0"?> All the remaining lines are empty (only '\n' characters). For the record, the xml file contains this amount of lines: 1682 /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl/fo/titlepage.templates.xml So something is wrong, but also I must have made a mistake the first time I tried, since the build of the pdf file went to the end (the validation succeeded) while now the build fails with the following error: /home/rusconi/devel/docbook/msxpertsuite/minexpert/xslt/fo/titlepage.xsl:1267: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found ^ compilation error: file /home/rusconi/devel/docbook/msxpertsuite/minexpert/xslt/fo/docbook.xsl line 6 element import xsl:import : unable to load /home/rusconi/devel/docbook/msxpertsuite/minexpert/xslt/fo/titlepage.xsl The error is related to the fact that apart from the first line, there is not a single XML tag in the imported xls file. So, this is where I am at the moment.
