I just converted a fairly large LinuxBook SGML document to
DocBook, using the Brute Force and Massive Ignorance approach.
Strangely enough, it went pretty smoothly. However,
I have run into a couple of problems, that probably have
answers, but I have not been able to find them on this list.
I will summarize them, and perhaps this might actually get put into
the DocProj Primer (hint hint) someday.
0. Edition information
How do I get this to appear in HTML Output AND Tex Output
so that it is under the title:
Tex HTML
This is the Title OR This is the Title
2nd Edition 2nd Edition
1. Deeper TOC Listings for HTML Output
Right now the TOC only does two levels of listing. I would
like to increase the depth. How do I do this?
NOW WANT
main main
main.1 main.1
main.1.1 main.1.1
main.1.1.1 main.1.1.1
main.1.1.2 main.1.1.2
main.2 main.2
main.2.1 main.2.1
...
2. How Do I Produce an Index? I would like to do this
for both HTML and PS output, but I would be happy
with just PS output.
a) the markup notation in the body
b) the jade + tex + tools to use
3. How Do I Produce an Glossary? I would like to do this
for both HTML and PS output, but I would be happy
with just PS output.
a) the markup notation in the body
b) the jade + tex + tools to use
4. The current tex output numbers pages, but does not do it
correctly.
Now Should Be
Title Page (Correct - no number)
Dedication 2 i
Preface... 3-... ii-...
Part1 n 1
I KNOW just KNOW that there is a way to do this, and I am going to
probably hit myself with a dope slap when somebody tells me.
5. I have tried to put images into the HTML and TeX / PS format.
Other people have done it.
a) What is the magic markup I need
b) How do I convince the tex stuff to FIND the file containing the
graphic? I keep thinking that I did this a LOooonnng time ago,
with a graphic tool, but this was using latex and some macros,
and it is long gone from my memory and archives.
