Note, that when I started the refcard, I tried four different toolchains: dblatex, docbook2latex(?), fop, and xmlroff. I don't remember now, but neither docbook2latex nor fop did work well for this usecase. Depending on the language I had acceptable results with dblatex or xmlroff. Unfortunately, both dblatex and xmlroff are more or less "one person projects". While xmlroff had no further development since many years, dblatex is alive and kicking, integrating patches from others and getting better with every release. Maybe it is time to focus on only one tool, dblatex, and fix remaining issues with it?
