This appendix contains example XML files and the commands to convert them from one output format to another. After installing the Documentation Project tools (see ), these examples can be used directly. These examples are not exhaustive—they do not contain all the elements that might be desirable to use, particularly in a document's front matter. For more examples of DocBook markup, examine the XML source for this and other documents available in the svn doc repository, or available online starting at . To avoid confusion, these examples use the standard DocBook 4.1 DTD rather than the &os; extension. They also use the stock stylesheets distributed by Norm Walsh, rather than any customizations made to those stylesheets by the &os; Documentation Project. This makes them more useful as generic DocBook examples. <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.2//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd"> book lang='en' bookinfo titleAn Example Booktitle author firstnameYour first namefirstname surnameYour surnamesurname affiliation addressemailfoo@example.comemailaddress affiliation author copyright year2000year holderCopyright string hereholder copyright abstract paraIf your book has an abstract then it should go here.para abstract bookinfo preface titlePrefacetitle paraYour book may have a preface, in which case it should be placed here.para preface chapter titleMy First Chaptertitle paraThis is the first chapter in my book.para sect1 titleMy First Sectiontitle paraThis is the first section in my book.para sect1 chapter book <!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.2//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd"> article lang='en' articleinfo titleAn Example Articletitle author firstnameYour first namefirstname surnameYour surnamesurname affiliation addressemailfoo@example.comemailaddress affiliation author copyright year2000year holderCopyright string hereholder copyright abstract paraIf your article has an abstract then it should go here.para abstract articleinfo sect1 titleMy First Sectiontitle paraThis is the first section in my article.para sect2 titleMy First Sub-Sectiontitle paraThis is the first sub-section in my article.para sect2 sect1 article Before using this examples, install the required tools as shown in . &prompt.user; jade -V nochunks \ -c /usr/local/share/xml/docbook/dsssl/modular/catalog \ -c /usr/local/share/xml/docbook/catalog \ -c /usr/local/share/xml/jade/catalog \ -d /usr/local/share/xml/docbook/dsssl/modular/html/docbook.dsl \ -t sgml file.xml > file.html Specifies the nochunks parameter to the stylesheets, forcing all output to be written to the standard output (using Norm Walsh's stylesheets). Specifies the catalogs that Jade will need to process. Three catalogs are required. The first is a catalog that contains information about the DSSSL stylesheets. The second contains information about the DocBook DTD. The third contains information specific to Jade. Specifies the full path to the DSSSL stylesheet that Jade will use when processing the document. Instructs Jade to perform a transformation from one DTD to another. In this case, the input is being transformed from the DocBook DTD to the XHTML DTD. Specifies the file that Jade should process, and redirects output to the specified .html file. &prompt.user; jade \ -c /usr/local/share/xml/docbook/dsssl/modular/catalog \ -c /usr/local/share/xml/docbook/catalog \ -c /usr/local/share/xml/jade/catalog \ -d /usr/local/share/xml/docbook/dsssl/modular/html/docbook.dsl \ -t sgml file.xml Specifies the catalogs that Jade will need to process. Three catalogs are required. The first is a catalog that contains information about the DSSSL stylesheets. The second contains information about the DocBook DTD. The third contains information specific to Jade. Specifies the full path to the DSSSL stylesheet that Jade will use when processing the document. Instructs Jade to perform a transformation from one DTD to another. In this case, the input is being transformed from the DocBook DTD to the XHTML DTD. Specifies the file that Jade should process. The stylesheets determine how the individual XHTML files will be named, and the name of the root file, the one that contains the start of the document. This example may still only generate one XHTML file, depending on the structure of the document you are processing, and the stylesheet's rules for splitting output. The source XML file must be converted to a &tex; file. &prompt.user; jade -V tex-backend \ -c /usr/local/share/xml/docbook/dsssl/modular/catalog \ -c /usr/local/share/xml/docbook/catalog \ -c /usr/local/share/xml/jade/catalog \ -d /usr/local/share/xml/docbook/dsssl/modular/print/docbook.dsl \ -t tex file.xml Customizes the stylesheets to use various options specific to producing output for &tex;. Specifies the catalogs that Jade will need to process. Three catalogs are required. The first is a catalog that contains information about the DSSSL stylesheets. The second contains information about the DocBook DTD. The third contains information specific to Jade. Specifies the full path to the DSSSL stylesheet that Jade will use when processing the document. Instructs Jade to convert the output to &tex;. The generated .tex file must now be run through tex, specifying the &jadetex macro package. &prompt.user; tex "&jadetex" file.tex tex commands must be run at least three times. The first run processes the document, and determines areas of the document which are referenced from other parts of the document, for use in indexing, and so on. Do not be alarmed if you see warning messages such as LaTeX Warning: Reference `136' on page 5 undefined on input line 728. at this point. The second run reprocesses the document now that certain pieces of information are known (such as the document's page length). This allows index entries and other cross-references to be fixed up. The third pass performs any final cleanup necessary. The output from this stage will be file.dvi. Finally, run dvips to convert the .dvi file to &postscript;. &prompt.user; dvips -o file.ps file.dvi The first part of this process is identical to that of converting DocBook to &postscript;, using the same jade command line (). After the .tex file has been generated, run pdfTeX. However, use the &pdfjadetex macro package instead. &prompt.user; pdftex "&pdfjadetex" file.tex Again, run this command three times. This will generate file.pdf, which does not need to be processed any further.
