Subject: Re: DOCBOOK: making a book of articles with Fop
I think the key point Jorge was getting at is that the individual articles (chapters) should *not* have their own doctypes declared; both article and chapter are valid top level elements (and AFAIK) valid components of a book. Is this not what SUBDOCs were invented for, though? ( haven't made any experiments with this, and I have a sneaking suspicion XML doesn't allow them, which is not important to me, but might be to the person who asked the question).
