Hm, Vincent, I think you're right. I just received my "new" Apache Modules book by Nick Kew (pub. 2007) and he says on p. 11, "All original documents are in an XML format that is a subset of DocBook." If that is still true, I can change my proposal for pdf to: # existing flow apache-doc.xsl => [stylesheets of some kind] => apache-doc.tex pdflatex apache-doc.tex => apache-doc.pdf # new flow apache-doc.xsl => [DocBook 5 stylesheets] => apache-doc.fo apache-doc.fo => [Apache Fop 1+] => apache-doc.pdf In my experience we have been using the xsltproc (from libxml2) for conversion from xml to fo, but the Apache Java tool chain should work okay, too.
