--> Your question is not directly related to XMLmind XML Editor. It is more a question about DocBook and its XSL stylesheets (http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/). --> ANSWER: You cannot do that without customizing the DocBook XSL stylesheets. The first pages are always generated when you convert a DocBook <book> to PDF, RTF, etc. These first pages are intented to contain useful info. For example, take a look at the first pages of our User's Guide: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/user/userguide.pdf Note that our User's Guide starts with a <bookinfo> element: --- <bookinfo> <title>XMLmind XML Editor - User's Guide</title> <author> <firstname>Hussein</firstname> <surname>Shafie</surname> <affiliation> <orgname>Pixware</orgname> <address>Immeuble Capricorne, <street>23 rue Colbert</street>, <postcode>78180</postcode> <city>Montigny Le Bretonneux</city>, <country>France</country>, Phone: <phone>+33 (0)1 30 60 07 00</phone>, Fax: <fax>+33 (0)1 30 96 05 23</fax>, Web: <otheraddr><ulink url="http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/";>www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor</ulink></otheraddr> Email: <email>xmleditor-support at xmlmind.com</email></address> </affiliation> </author> <pubdate>April 23, 2007</pubdate> <abstract> <para>This document is essentially a tutorial for XMLmind XML Editor (XXE for short). It also contains installation instructions for Unix and information about the content of the distribution.</para> </abstract> </bookinfo> --- and not just with a <title> element. --> TIP: If instead of writing a DocBook <book>s, you write DocBook <article>s, you'll get no ``almost empty'' pages at the beginning of your PDF.
