Hi, I'm not quite sure what you're asking for. If you want a stylesheet that simply returns the text from an XML document and does nothing else, then I believe something as simple as: xsl:template match=/ xsl:apply-templates/ /xsl:template ...would suffice. Unless you want it in some

Cheri, 0.93 does generate hyperlinks in your pdf index. Incidentally, I've found 0.93 to be very useful. It won't do everything the XEP or Antenna House can do, but I did find that it's a lot better than 0.20.5 and is definitely worth a look if you can't use a commercial processor. Dick
