When you say 'run that through libfo-compat.xsl' I presume you mean that
I produce the FO file using this command:
`xsltproc --output simple.fo simple.xsl simple.xml`
And then run:
`xsltproc --output simple2.fo libfo-compat.xsl simple.fo`

And then use:
`xmlroff -o simple.ps --backend=gp simple2.fo `

If so then I still have the 'Segmentation fault' error.
If I have done this right then I will create the bog report as
recommended.
Regards, kibble.

Firstly, welcome to xmlroff and the xmlroff-list.

It is more likely to be something that xmlroff is missing, although I
would
have liked to think that xmlroff didn't segfault quite as easily as it
used to.

What version of xmlroff are you using?

You could run xsltproc on your XML and XSLT files to produce your FO
file and
run that through libfo-compat.xsl to prune out many of the FOs and
properties
that we know xmlroff does not yet handle.  (We do intend to build
libfo-compat.xsl into the xmlroff executable in the next release so that
step
is automatic.)

If that still doesn't work, then create a bug report on SourceForge and
attach
the FO file.  Creating a bug report is more useful than emailing me the
file
since I do email and xmlroff work on different machines.

Regards,


Tony.
