BAD MSG: *Java environment*. I don't know exactly which one. Have you copied a alan.jar to java_install_dir/lib/ext/?
We don't think all this is a problem with XMLmind XML Editor or with Saxon. And because we cannot reproduce the problem here at XMLmind labs, it is hard to suggest a workaround. May be you could: [1] Edit XXE_install_dir/addon/config/docbook/xslMenu.incl and replace *all*: --- <parameter name="use.extensions">1</parameter> --- by: --- <parameter name="use.extensions">0</parameter> --- [2] if [1] fails, please download and install xxe-std-211-setup.exe from http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/download.shtml. This distribution includes it own *private* Java Runtime. --- PS: In principle, conversion of XHTML to PDF should work in all cases (with Professional Edition of course). If we guessed right, the problem is triggered by '<parameter name="use.extensions">1</parameter>'.
