README file for the DocBook XSL Stylesheets
----------------------------------------------------------------------
$Id: README 9731 2013-03-17 05:01:54Z bobstayton $

These are XSL stylesheets for transforming DocBook XML document
instances into various output formats.

This README file provides only very minimal documentation on using
the stylesheets. For more complete information, see Bob Stayton's
book "DocBook XSL: The Complete Guide", available online at:

http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/

Installation
----------------------------------------------------------------------
See the INSTALL file for information about installing this release.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
How to use the stylesheets
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The base canonical URI for these stylesheets is:

http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/

You call any of the stylesheets in this distribution by doing one
of the following:

- Use the base canonical URI in combination with one of the
pathnames below. For example, for "chunked" HTML, output:

http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/html/chunk.xsl

If your system has a working XML Catalog or SGML Catalog setup
(most Linux systems do), then that URI will automatically be
resolved and replaced with a local pathname on your system.

- Use a "real" local system base path in combination with one of
the pathnames below. For example, for "chunked" HTML, output:

/usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/html/chunk.xsl

To transform documents created with the standard DocBook
schema/DTD, use one of the following stylesheets:

fo/docbook.xsl - for XSL-FO

html/docbook.xsl - for HTML (as a single file)
html/chunk.xsl - for HTML (chunked into multiple files)
html/onechunk.xsl - for HTML (chunked output in single file)

xhtml/*.xsl - for XHTML versions of the above

xhtml-1_1/*.xsl - for XHTML 1.1 versions of the above

xhtml5/*.xsl - for XHTML5 versions of the above

epub/docbook.xsl - for .epub version 2 and earlier
epub3/docbook.xsl - for .epub version 3 and later

htmlhelp/htmlhelp.xsl - for HTML Help
javahelp/javahelp.xsl - for JavaHelp
eclipse/eclipse.xsl - for Eclipse Help

manpages/docbook.xsl - for groff/nroff man pages

*/profile-* - single-pass-profiling versions of all above

roundtrip/*.xsl - for DocBook to WordML, etc., to DocBook

assembly/assemble.xsl - converts an assembly into a DocBook document
assembly/topic-maker-chunk.xsl
- converts a DocBook document into an assembly
with topic files.

webhelp/build.xml - Ant script to generate webhelp output.
webhelp/Makefile - Makefile to generate webhelp output.

To transform documents created with the DocBook Slides schema/DTD,
use one of the following stylesheets:

slides/xhtml/*.xsl - for XHTML slides of various kinds
slides/fo/plain.xsl - for XSL-FO slides

To transform documents created with the DocBook Website
schema/DTD, use one of the following stylesheets:

website/website.xsl - for non-tabular, non-chunked output
website/tabular.xsl - for tabular, non-chunked output
website/chunk-* - for chunked output

To generate a titlepage customization layer from a titlepage spec:

template/titlepage.xsl

For fo titlepage customizations, set the stylesheet parameter named 'ns'
to 'http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format' when using this stylesheet.
For xhtml titlepage customizations, set the stylesheet parameter named 'ns'
to 'http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml' when using this stylesheet.

For details about creating titlepage spec files and generating and
using titlepage customization layers, see "DocBook XSL: The
Complete Guide"
