At any rate, I could compile the PDF file from the DocBook source with: make pdf and the following patch: --- Makefile.orig 2002-11-20 16:34:54.000000000 +0100 +++ Makefile 2002-11-20 20:34:39.000000000 +0100 at @ -50,7 +50,7 @@ .phony: subdirs subdirs: for dir in $(srcdirs); do \ - make --directory=$$dir; \ + -make --directory=$$dir; \ done $(outputdir)/coda-sgml.tar.gz: $(src) Makefile at @ -81,10 +81,8 @@ $(outputdir)/coda.ps.gz: $(outputdir)/coda.ps -$(outputdir)/coda.pdf: $(outputdir)/coda.ps - cd $(outputdir) && \ - gs -q -r600 -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite \ - -sOutputFile=coda.pdf coda.ps +$(outputdir)/coda.pdf: coda.sgml + db2pdf -o $(outputdir) coda.sgml %.gz: % gzip --best --stdout $< > $ at The compilation triggered a lot of warnings and there are no page numbers in the table of contents. Otherwise, the document looks fine. I am using version 0.6.11 of package docbook-utils in a Debian system. -- Rafael ------------------------------------------------------------- Octave is freely available under the terms of the GNU GPL.
