Subject: Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: Problems with passivetex / pdfxmltex
I am having these exact problems with TeX Live installed yesterday from the referenced ISO. I have the updated xmltex.tex from the PassiveTeX website, and I am using the PassiveTeX version from the same site. The FO was generated by Xalan with PassiveTeX extensions enabled. I get identical results using Saxon 6.5.1. I am using version 1.49 of the DocBook XSL stylesheets. If I use the PassiveTeX installation that comes with TeX Live, I get the following errors instead: ! LaTeX Error: File `url.sty' not found. I fill in the path and then get: ! LaTeX Error: File `ulem.sty' not found. I fill in a path for that file, and then I get this one: ! Missing \endcsname inserted. <to be read again> \Odd: l.2 ...="en"><fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body"> <fo:block><fo:block font-f... I'm probably asking for trouble by mixing and matching xmltex/PassiveTeX/TeX Live versions this way, so what is the right way to install all of these tools? Right now, I am getting by with Jade+JadeTeX+DSSSL, but I would really prefer to use the XSL stylesheets if possible. Is there something I can try or tweak with TeX Live to deal with this? -Patrick Adam Turoff wrote: > I'm trying to install PassiveTeX on a handful of computers.
