Re: [docbook-apps] admon graphics cause error with PassiveTex

Gisbert,

your zip file is not complete. Downloading it from here: 
http://www.tei-c.org.uk/Software/passivetex/
gives you a passivetex zip archive containing 65 files.

But I'm not satisfied with the results of passivetex neither. Getting 
feedback from Sebastian also turned out to be rather difficult. I have 
the impression that fop is getting much more development these days than 
passivetex, so chances for quality-improvement of its output are better. 
I will give it a try next time I have to generate pdf output from my 
sources.
