Subject: RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: RE: DOCBOOK: Problems creating pdf file of tdg
Hello Bob, everyone, I installed TeX from the TexLive CD on Win2K. Copied (installed?) the PassiveTeX macros to .\TeXLive\texmf\tex\passivetex. Ran mktexlsr.exe to update the file lookup table. Created a FO file using Saxon. Created a wrapper file called test.tex: \def\xmlfile{test.fo} \input xmltex Ran pdfTeX: pdflatex test.tex This results in an error... (see below for test.log) If you have any idea...? Thanks again, Simon. test.log: This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159-pre-1.0-unofficial-20010704 (Web2c 7.3.3.1) (format=pdflatex 2002.2.14) 14 FEB 2002 12:52 **test.tex (./test.tex{d:/Program Files/TeXLive/texmf-var/pdftex/config/pdftex.cfg} LaTeX2e <2000/06/01> Babel <v3.7h> and hyphenation patterns for american, polish, loaded.

(already tried FOP) You should try PassiveTex: http://www.hcu.ox.ac.uk/TEI/Software/passivetex/ I find it works better than FOP. But getting it working can be a bear. I've never gotten PassiveTex working over an existing TeX installation. There were always fatal errors, of a type that didn't make enough sense to me to fix. I have gotten PassiveTex working on both Win2K and Linux by doing the following: 1. Download the TexLive CD image and cut a CD. 2. Install the entire TeX distribution from the TexLive CD. 3. Follow Sebastian Rahtz's directions from the above webpage *to the letter* to install PassiveTex in the new TeX installation. Like FOP, it isn't perfect, but it is useful.
