- LFS Book Conversion Tools Installation Instructions
- After downloading the SVN source, there are some things that need to be set up
- on your computer if you want to convert the XML source into something easier to
- read (e.g. HTML, TXT, PS or PDF). If you are interested in this, then keep
- reading. If you are only interested in editing the XML source for re-
- submission to the lfs-book or lfs-dev mailing lists, then you do not need this
- document. Instead, you need to read the LFS Editor's Manual. See the LFS
- website at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org for more information.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- If all you want to do is convert XML to HTML perform the following:
- * libxml2
- - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/libxml2.html
- * libxslt
- - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/libxslt.html
- * DocBook DTD
- - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/pst/xml.html
- * DocBook XSL Stylesheets
- - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/pst/docbook-xsl.html
- * HTMLTidy
- - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/tidy.html
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- If you want to be able to convert the book into PDF as well, then you will need
- the FOP package. This takes an XSL-FO file (created with libxslt which you
- already installed) and converts it to PDF. FOP is dependant on the Java
- Advanced Imaging (JAI) API to render SVG graphics. Instructions to install the
- JAI are included in the FOP instructions. Perform the following:
- * J2SDK
- - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/j2sdk.html
- * FOP
- - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/pst/fop.html
