"assembly.xxe", simply do not forget to replace command prefix "db51." by "asm.". Dear Mr Shafie, Thanks for your swift reply. We actually hoped - knowing that assemblies will eventually by compiled into valid DocBook documents -that they would use the same parameter sets as DocBook documents, avoiding to redo the complete configuration work... But we can surely proceed as you suggest. Many thanks for your feedback, Best regards, Philippe.

(Reference: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/customizing.html) Then repeat what you did in a "0assembly.xxe" file importing stock "assembly.xxe", simply do not forget to replace command prefix "db51." by "asm.".

Reference: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/xxetool/index.html It works exactly the same for DocBook 5.1 assemblies, but with process commands having names starting with prefix "asm.". xxetool is self-documenting: --- $ xxetool convert asm.toEclipseHelp asm.toEpub asm.toHTML asm.toHTML1 asm.toHTMLHelp asm.toJavaHelp asm.toJavaHelpWithPrefix asm.toPSFile asm.toRTF asm.toWebHelp db5.toEclipseHelp db5.toEpub ... docb.toWebHelp xhtml.toPSFile xhtml.toRTF --- Example (of course, "my_doc.xml" contains an assembly): --- xxetool convert -p highlight.source 1 -p admon.graphics 1 \ asm.toPSFile my_doc.xml \ -s pdf -s pdf -u my_doc.pdf --- Please download the full source of tutorial "DocBook Assemblies and Topics for the Impatient" from http://www.xmlmind.com/tutorials/DocBookAssemblies/DocBookAssemblies_src.zip and take a look at the makefile it contains.
