[e8a0469]1LFS Book Conversion Tools Installation Instructions
[2fadfb6]2
[35c2fa60]3After downloading the CVS source, there are some things that need to be set up
[e8a0469]4on your computer if you want to convert the XML source into something easier to
5read (e.g. HTML, TXT, PS or PDF). If you are interested in this, then keep
6reading. If you are only interested in editing the XML source for re-
7submission to the lfs-book or lfs-dev mailing lists, then you do not need this
8document. Instead, you need to read the LFS Editor's Manual. See the LFS
[a52b2c2]9website at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org for more information.

12If all you want to do is convert XML to HTML perform the following:
[2fadfb6]13
[e8a0469]14* libxml2
15 - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/cvs/general/libxml2.html
[2fadfb6]16
[287ea55]17* libxslt
18 - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/cvs/general/libxslt.html

26 /usr/share/xml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets-1.65.1 to

[287ea55]39If you want to be able to convert the book into PDF as well, then you will need
40the FOP package. This takes an XSL-FO file (created with libxslt which you
41already installed) and converts it to PDF:
[2fadfb6]42

[287ea55]45 Install FOP by running:
[2fadfb6]46
[287ea55]47 cd /opt &&
48 tar -xzvf /usr/src/fop-0.20.5-bin.tar.gz &&
49 mv fop-0.20.5 fop
