if you do some archaeology on the old, obsolete, free manual you will find it uses a build system like
docbook xml source docbook xsl stylesheet transforms apache fop to output pdf. When I worked on it there were a few problems, but I liked the process. Apparently no one else did, however. I suspect FOP has progressed since I last looked, and I think there are other flow object processors now available to convert appropriate xml to pdf. I think the firebird project (on sourceforge) still has a working setup like this in the manual module. david jencks On 2002.11.20 21:02:19 -0500 linuxman wrote: > Thanks jason! > > But I like latex or lyx, not m$ word:-).
