Hi, the make pdfa4 command that should generate pdfs from sgml when launched in ..opt/ecos/doc/sgml/user-guide produces a long list of errors only. Here is an excerpt: jade:introduction.sgml:154:19:E: element "PRODUCTNAME" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:156:5:E: element "PARA" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:156:18:E: element "PRODUCTNAME" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:159:20:E: element "PRODUCTNAME" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:161:5:E: element "PARA" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:161:18:E: element "PRODUCTNAME" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:172:22:E: element "PRODUCTNAME" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:176:13:E: element "PRODUCTNAME" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:177:35:E: element "PRODUCTNAME" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:180:13:E: element "PRODUCTNAME" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:181:20:E: element "PRODUCTNAME" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:182:9:E: there is no attribute "LINKEND" jade:introduction.sgml:182:25:E: element "XREF" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:184:5:E: element "PARA" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:185:13:E: element "PRODUCTNAME" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:191:13:E: element "PRODUCTNAME" undefined jade:introduction.sgml:193:13:E: element "PRODUCTNAME" undefined and finally it outputs: jade -o ecos-user-guide-a4.tex -t tex -V tex-backend -d ../../../packages/pkgconf/ssa4.dsl#print user-guide.sgml ../../../packages/pkgconf/rules.doc:143: recipe for target 'ecos-user-guide-a4.pdf' failed I could not find an alternative to the above (mean - converting sgml to a pdf - sgml in a text editor or browser is ugly). It seems, no reasonable reader exists for the sgml format. This lets me wunder why the documentation is presented in this now arcane format. Why not include these files as open data text (odt) as used by e. g. OpenOffice? Well, back to the problem: Has anybody a hint why the sgml to pdf fails?
