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

| 12 | If all you want to do is convert XML to HTML perform the following:
|
|---|
| 13 |
|
|---|
| 14 | * libxml2
|
|---|
| 15 | - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/libxml2.html
|
|---|
| 16 |
|
|---|
| 17 | * libxslt
|
|---|
| 18 | - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/libxslt.html
|

| 19 |
|

| 20 | * DocBook DTD
|

|

|

| 23 | * DocBook XSL Stylesheets

| 30 | If you want to be able to convert the book into PDF as well, then you will need
|
|---|
| 31 | the FOP package. This takes an XSL-FO file (created with libxslt which you
|
|---|
| 32 | already installed) and converts it to PDF. FOP is dependant on the Java
|
|---|
| 33 | Advanced Imaging (JAI) API to render SVG graphics. Instructions to install the
|
|---|
| 34 | JAI are included in the FOP instructions. Perform the following:
|
|---|
| 35 |
|
|---|
| 36 | * J2SDK
|
|---|
| 37 | - http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/j2sdk.html
|
|---|
| 38 |
|
|---|
| 39 | * FOP
