That's probably a good start; you also need a DSSSL processor (jade and jadetex seem to be ~canonical). Then you can run jade -t tex foo.sgml # foo.sgml + foo.dsl -> foo.tex jadetex foo # foo.tex -> foo.dvi dvips foo -o # foo.dvi -> foo.ps pdfjadetex foo # foo.tex -> foo.pdf Alternatively, if you're in an XML world, you can use an XSLT processor (like xsltproc) and libfop-java to get PDF out. But that has Java dependencies, is strictly XML, and the Debian dependencies never seemed quite right to me. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
