Subject: DocBook on Kubuntu 8.04 (cmiiw)
Hi, This is how I did it to make fop run on Kubuntu 8.04. Please correct me if I am wrong. (1) Visit https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DocBook#Hello%20World Check if these following packages are installed: xsltproc, docbook-xsl, docbook-defguide (2) Download fop (currently 0.95beta) from somewhere. See also http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/download.html Extract the tar package into /usr/local/share/fop-XXX . Symlink from /usr/local/share/fop-XXX/fop to /usr/local/bin/fop (3) Download offo-hyphenation-fop-stable from somewhere. See also http://sourceforge.net/projects/offo Extract the package and put ''fop-hyph.jar'' into /usr/local/share/fop-XXX/lib/ (4) Check if these SUN-JAVA6 packages are installed: sun-java6-jdk, sun-java6-bin, sun-java6-jre Make sure that other Java packages do not interfere (eg. gcj). (5) Create a small ''test.xml'' file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN" "http://docbook.org/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd"> <article><title>My First Docbook Article</title> <section><title>Section</title> <para>Super-cali-fragilistic-expiali-docious.

Suo-icodilaip-xecit-sili-garf-ila-crepus. </para></section></section></article> (6) The moment of truth.... try... % xsltproc --stringparam draft.mode no -o test.fo /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/fo/docbook.xsl test.xml [Ignore the warnings] % /usr/local/bin/fop test.fo test.pdf [Ignore the warnings] % kpdf test.pdf [Ta...da...] -- EL6.
