Thanks Tony, I'll keep this makefile tip in mind. But it turns out that
the FO file was deleted by a shell script that was called by the makefile.
Regards,
Mark

It's starting to come back to me. I think that the default when
creating a PDF with DocBook XSL is for the FO file to remain there on
the drive unmolested. So I think I need to point a finger at my
makefiles. Sorry to be a bother.
Since you are using Make, run the rule to make the FO file once so that
there is an intermediate FO file there when Make next runs.
Make will automatically delete intermediate files that weren't there
when it started, but will preserve updated intermediate files that were
already there:
