I get exactly the same error and the same kind of log when the FOP add-on has *not* been installed along the DITA add-on.
This kind of problem occurs when add-ons have been installed manually, that is, have not been installed using menu item "Install|Add-ons". XXE's integrated add-on manager ``knows'' that DITA requires FOP and that FOP requires Batik and Jimi. Please make sure that all the following add-ons are installed on your system: * DITA configuration based on the OASIS DTD * Apache FOP XSL-FO processor plug-in (Apache FOP 1.x XSL-FO processor plug-in works too but you cannot install both) * Apache Batik image toolkit plug-in * Jimi image toolkit plug-in Niels Grundtvig Nielsen wrote: > > Conversion to HTML worked; conversion to PDF didn't, so here is the > Command Execution log.
