Here's the way I proceed : I have the following csma.sgml file : <mediaobject> <imageobject> <imagedata fileref="images/csma.jpg" format="jpg"> </imageobject> <imageobject> <imagedata fileref="images/csma.eps" format="eps"> </imageobject> <imageobject> <imagedata fileref="{DOC_PATH}images/csma.gif" format="gif"> </imageobject> <textobject> <phrase>CSMA/CD</phrase> </textobject> <caption> <para>Méthode d'accès</para> </caption> </mediaobject> which is referred in ethernet.sgml <!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V3.1//EN" [ <!ENTITY csma SYSTEM "csma.sgml"> ]> <article lang="fr"> <artheader> <title>Technologie Ethernet</title> <revhistory> <revision> <revnumber>0.1</revnumber><date>21 Février 2000</date> <revremark>lists.oasis-open.org post</revremark> </revision> </revhistory> </artheader> <sect1><title>Méthode d'accès</title> <para> &csma; </para> </article> When I run db2html the gif file is used When I run db2ps the eps file is used When I run db2pdf the jpg file is used but not resized. I had to rescale it "manually" from Gimp to fit in page. Is there a better way to proceed ? Is PNG file format only supported by DocBook v4.0beta2 ? -- - Philippe [------------------------------------------------ [( Linux RNIS/ISDN Howto : http://www.linux-france.org/article/connex/ISDN [( E-mail : philippe.latu@linux-france.org
