All toolsets >that work with DocBook are in some way specially purposed for DocBook. I was going to say that. I personally either work with docbook or 'don't'. If I'm working with docbook, then I either accept the stylesheets or modify them (if I can) to suite. Even if mods are 'docbook only', I'd still be happy (or roll my own), since I'm either in 'docbook space' or not, I.e. I have never gone from docbook to other than its html/pdf output formats, which is why I use docbook in the first place. I think I'm trying to say that this group has shown so much common sense so far, I'd trust its judgement for a good while yet :-) Your decision, I'll not knock it! regards DaveP
