Hi Jean Francois! thank you for your reply. In Ubuntu 19.10 repos there is only sphinx 1.8.5 so I had to install manually, something I am not very familiar with. So i followed some instructions at your website. I had to figure out that i needed to install pip3 (i already had pip and pip2 in my system) so that sphinx 2.2.1 could be installed. At the end of the installation, i got a reminder that some scripts (sphinx-build and sphinx-quickstart) were located in my home folder/.../../ sphinx-builder --version would return 1.8.5 but /homefolder/.../sphinx-builder --version would return 2.2.1
So i made a new quistart in a directory with the scipt from my home folder. At this point I am not sure whether sphinc-quickstart script is using the 2.2.1 version or the 1.8.5 (it probably has to do with some environmental variables i guess ... ) Hopefully it used the 2.2.1 version of sphinx. Then i copied my rst files into this new directory and tried building the pdf. At the beginning it would complain for a number of things, that had to do with conf.py - master-doc = contents.rst for example I tried using a plain conf.py, as you suggested, but it wouldn't work. So i started adding stuff into my conf.py: at some point it worked and it would produce some pdf. Since i had no setting for the language in the preamble section the pdf output file would not be ok (I guess this is what you would like to know) Then i added also the language stuff, Bjournstroup template + fonts And I got some result, but it would be the same as previously, meaning: to my view some letters are according to configuration (correct font) but most of the letters are using some default font . To sum up: i have the doubt whether sphinx 2.2.1 is used during the above procedure - i AM using the correct scritpt for a quickstart but does it use the correct version of sphinx ? that i do not know If sphinx version is correct during the build procedure, I do not see much difference to previous build. I could try a few suggestions and help improve sphinx if you like - since I am also interested in a correct project output (pdf) Nikos -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sphinx-users" group.
