Hi hb, This is not a question that belongs in the XXE-list, rather it should be asked in the docbook-apps at lists.oasis-open.org list, but it's not easy for you to know if you're new to DocBook and XXE.
To get different languages in the output set the attribute "lang" in the <book> element. For french set lang="fr". This can be done in XXE's Attribute View (Ctrl-E). Make sure the <book> element is selected. I haven't tried XXE's own HTML/PDF conversion, but this is the way to do it. We use it for 10 languages.
