Indeed: for nroff output from XML, better to use db2man, an improved

http://cyberelk.net/tim/docbook/ for pointers to the packages you

Did you look at the 'Project Documentation' link on the DocBook Open

http://sourceforge.net/docman/?group_id=21935

(For samples in particular, you might find the Selfdocbook useful;
there is a link on that page.)
