Typical DocBook document uses 20-30 elements, you don't have to cover full DocBook in custom solution. > I think the solution is an XSLT from DB to IDML. But such transformation will require you to define formatting during this transformation. Isn't there already conversion from FO into IDML? This should be less effort. There are several tools for producing DOCX and ODT from FO, but it would be nice to have ability to use InDesign as FO engine.
