Catalogs and PDF output

[lists@userdox.com]

Hi,

I'm not sure if I've misunderstood how to use catalogs or have made an error
somewhere.  Please look for any errors in what I have done so far.

I can successfully transform my xml documents to html with this command:

java
-Djavax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory=org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactory.Impl
-Djavax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory=org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl
-Dorg.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLParserConfiguration=org.apache.xerces.parsers.XIncludeParserConfiguration
com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet -x org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.ResolvingXMLReader -y
org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.ResolvingXMLReader -r
org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.CatalogResolver
d:\doc_workarea\CourseUnit\cu_book.xml
d:\doc_workarea\CourseUnit\cu_html_custom_layer.xsl

But - How do I get fop and my catalog file working together??  I can't seem to
find the answer to that one anywhere.  If possible I would really like to run
the same commands under Windows, Solaris, Linux, and Mac OS.

==================================================================
I have the following tools installed:
saxon (?6.5.3?)
fop 0.20.5
Xerces 2.7.1
resolver (?)
xincluder (?)
batik (?)
avalon-framework-cvs-20020806 (from fop distribution)
jai (?)
docbook XML 4.3
docbook XSL 1.68.1
==================================================================

I have a directory structure like:
D:\
