First: do you have Acrobat 4.0 or later?
Because it appears that the format allows EPS (not PDF) I would suggest that you produce EPS format images for your publications. Using Acrobat 4.0 allows you to Export a PDF format file to EPS using the File/Export/PostScript or EPS menu item. Therefore you can do the following:
1. Launch Acrobat 4 (or later)
2. Crop the image if required.
3. Click File/Export/PostScript or EPS
4. Click Save on the Export PostScript or EPS Oprions window
5. Provide the desired file name and path in the Export PS - Specify EPS File Name window.
This will save the EPS format file and leave the original PDF format file alone. I have not included EPS format files in my XML output so I cannot vouch for its support. Someone else will have to answer that question.

Hello,
I've just tried the following from Bob Staytons 2using the XSLT Stylesheets":
Example 16.1. Multiple graphics in a mediaobject
<mediaobject id="MousePicture"> <imageobject role="html"> <imagedata format="PNG" fileref="mouse.png"/> </imageobject> <imageobject role="fo"> <imagedata format="PDF" fileref="mouse.pdf"/> </imageobject> </mediaobject>
But xmllint says:
validity error: Value "PDF" for attribute format of imagedata is not among the enumerated set
and nsgmls says:
value of attribute "format" cannot be "PDF"; must be one of "BMP", "CGM-CHAR", "CGM-BINARY", "CGM-CLEAR", "DITROFF", "DVI", "EPS", "EQN", "FAX", "GIF", "GIF87a", "GIF89a", "JPG", "JPEG", "IGES", "PCX", "PIC", "PNG", "PS", "SGML", "TBL", "TEX", "TIFF", "WMF", "WPG", "SVG", "linespecific"
I am using
PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.2//EN"
So what is the preferred way of including scalable vector graphics for PDF output?
Greetings, Joachim
