It's ALL platforms. They are all the same. Welcome to my nightmare! That's how I got stuck even before I started. What you get from there is the XSL that validates your XML as being "DocBook" and allows you, with the suitable use of an XSLT processor, to convert your XML source into PDF/HTML/Whatever. I'll see if I can find some tutorials etc, but the Docbook "book" from O'Reilly is available on line. http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/docbook.html There is also an online version of the Docbook XSL at the same location. That explains how to modify the Docbook XSl to make it do stuff how you want it to. Might help. Look also for the XML Mind Editor (XME) which comes in two flavours Personal and paid for. Look also the the XSL-FO utility which takes your XML source, an XSL stylesheet and produces whatever you want as output. XME = http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/ with the download at http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/download.shtml XSLFO = http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/ with the personal download at http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/downloadperso.shtml Both are WIndows or Linux etc. HTH - and happy to answer questions.
