RE: Slides output formating

Thank you very much Justus. 
I was using only "docbook-xsl-1.73.0". The
“slides-demo” package provides me
the info I was looking for.

One more point (abusing on your patience): I have tried to
process the
simple slides.xml source file from the distribution, using
several slides
“flavours” and I always get the same error: the XSLT
processor (Saxon in my
case) cannot find the path to a required resource (it
doesn’t tell me which
one). 

Any clue about what’s going on? (I’m using Oxygen 8.2 tool,
and the path to
the source XML and to the main XSL are set in the
“transformation scenario”
environment).

Regards,

Pedro

It produces PDF output as well. While the stylesheets ship
with the
docbook-xsl package, for the schema you should download
docbook-slides
(the stylesheets therein are obsolete) and perhaps
docbook-slides-demo.

For examples (slightly customized Docbook Slides based on
Docbook
4.x), check my course Web pages (e.g.,
http://www.montefiore.ulg.ac.be/~pia
ter/courses/INFO0013/notes/probability/i
ndex.xhtml;
contains MathML and SVG).

NO, SORRY, I USE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TOOLCHAIN (EMACS +
XSLTPROC). PERHAPS AN XML CATALOG PROBLEM? I'M NOT SURE THE
STYLESHEETS EXIST AT THE GIVEN URLS, SO YOU MAY NEED TO MAKE
SURE THEY
ARE FOUND LOCALLY VIA YOUR XML CATALOGS.

Hello Pedro,

The slides stylesheets work without problems. You have to
set the 
base.dir parameter to the path of the output folder if you
do not want 
to generate the output files in the start directory of
oXygen. If you 
set one of the stylesheets located in
[docbook-slides-folder]/xsl/ as 
the XSLT stylesheet of the transformation scenario and the 
transformation does not work it seems there is an oXygen
transformation 
scenario issue so I think we should continue the thread off
list. Please 
reply to supportoxygenxml.com.

Sorin
