Thanks for the quick reply - in fact, I was interrupted while preparing this e-mail. I can now agree that the fault is in the .dita source, and I can see that this came from trying to use an experimental .dita file from another environment. The XML Mind "structure" warning highlighted the problem area, and I have now been able to correct the error. Results: happy author, happy document owner :-}

FOP is 100% right in reporting it. This error is caused by the fact that your DITA input file is *structurally* *invalid* (red icon at the bottom/left of XMLmind XML Editor red window). For example, --- <p>Printing time increases dramatically with the density, in particular in areas where the black-to-white ratio is close to 100%.</p> --- is found directly inside the <ul> starting with: --- <li>the physical length of the ticket</li> --- Note that our software XMLmind DITA Converter (embedded in XMLmind XML Editor) has not been designed to gracefully handle structurally invalid DITA documents. Hence this FOP error.
