Thanks for your comments - as I said I'm rather new to docbook/xslt. Refcard.xsl contained: <xsl:import href="http://db2latex.sourceforge.net/xsl/docbook.xsl"/> Which failed "xsl:import : unable to load http://db2latex.sourceforge.net/xsl/docbook.xsl"; I've tried removing the nonet and get the failure below. If I install db2latex locally and modify the import to: <xsl:import href="/usr/share/sgml/docbook/stylesheet/xsl/db2latex/latex/docbook.xsl"/> I get the same failure. >> so that it can >> download "http://db2latex.sourceforge.net/xsl/docbook.xsl";, but now it >> fails: > > See above.

Yes. I probably need to learn rather a lot before I can do that! Thanks, Paul -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
