  1. LFS Book Conversion Tools Installation Instructions
  2. After downloading the SVN source, there are some things that need to be set up
  3. on your computer if you want to convert the XML source into something easier to
  4. read (e.g. HTML, TXT, PS or PDF). If you are interested in this, then keep
  5. reading. If you are only interested in editing the XML source for re-
  6. submission to the lfs-book or lfs-dev mailing lists, then you do not need this
  7. document. Instead, you need to read the LFS Editor's Manual. See the LFS
  8. website at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org for more information.
  9. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  10. If all you want to do is convert XML to HTML perform the following:
  11. * libxml2
  12. - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/libxml2.html
  13. * libxslt
  14. - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/libxslt.html
  15. * DocBook DTD
  16. - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/pst/xml.html
  17. * DocBook XSL Stylesheets
  18. - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/pst/docbook-xsl.html
  19. * HTMLTidy
  20. - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/tidy.html
  21. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  22. If you want to be able to convert the book into PDF as well, then you will need
  23. the FOP package. This takes an XSL-FO file (created with libxslt which you
  24. already installed) and converts it to PDF. FOP is dependant on the Java
  25. Advanced Imaging (JAI) API to render SVG graphics. Instructions to install the
  26. JAI are included in the FOP instructions. Perform the following:
  27. * J2SDK
  28. - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/j2sdk.html
  29. * FOP
  30. - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/pst/fop.html
