I'm sorry to say this but your description is incorrect: Prior to Xep processing the Mathml files get converted to (nearly correct) svg files.
You personally provided the required configuration changes on a stock Xmlmind installation to achieve this result roughly 6 years ago at http://www.mail-archive.com/xmleditor-support%40xmlmind.com/msg04583.html (link being mentioned in my previous mail). Based on that description I modified current 6.4 xmlmind/addon/config/docbook5/docbook5_convert_input.incl to contain: <command name="{db5}toPS.step0"> ... <cfg:extract xmlns="" xmlns:db5="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"; xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"; xpath="//db5:imagedata/mml:math" toDir="raw"> <cfg:attribute name="fileref" value="resources/{$url.rootName}.svg" /> </cfg:extract> <resources include="image" match="(?:.+/)?(.+)\.(png|jpg|jpeg|gif|svg|svgz%1)" copyTo="resources" referenceAs="resources/$1.$2" /> <!--no "mml" --> <resources match="(?:.+/)?(.+)\.mml" copyTo="raw" referenceAs="%w/resources/$1.svg" /> ... </copyDocument> <convertImage from="raw/*.mml" to="resources" format="svg" /> <convertImage from="raw" skip="mml" to="resources" format="%0 png" /> </process> Then invoking: /usr/share/xmlmind/bin/xxetool convert -d -vvv db5.toPSFile fig.xml -s pdf -s "|pdf" -u ~/fig.pdf yields: xxetool: Processing XML file "/tmp/xxe1178347785568904861_d/__doc.xml" Making portrait pages on A4 paper (210mmx297mm) xxetool: Converting XSL-FO file "__doc.fo" to "__doc.pdf" using XEP xxetool: XEP: building the internal representation of the XSL-FO document... xxetool: error: XEP error: Failed to create image file:/tmp/xxe1178347785568904861_d/resources/fig_tmp_0.svg of type null (com.renderx.graphics.ImageFormatException: org.xml.sax.SAXException: Root element in an SVG image file:/tmp/xxe1178347785568904861_d/resources/fig_tmp_0.svg is not in the SVG namespace (http://www.w3.org/2000/svg)) xxetool: XEP: formatting the XSL-FO document... Due to the "-d" option I uploaded all (but pdf) intermediate files to https://cloud.mi.hdm-stuttgart.de/owncloud/index.php/s/7gXf1PjrgXLCKfJ. As you can see __doc.fo contains: <fo:external-graphic src="url(resources/fig_tmp_0.svg)" width="auto" height="auto" content-width="auto" content-height="auto"/> and resources/fig_tmp_0.svg is indeed a (nearly correct ) SVG file lacking a namespace declaration. As stated previously adding this namespace manually fixes the problem. I did not configure any Mathml to SVG converter myself. The JEuclid image tool plugin is present. I just don't know by which 'magic' MathML files get converted to SVG and how to influence this process accordingly.
