dblatex (textproc/dblatex) Updated: 2 years, 9 months ago Add to my watchlist 1

Dblatex transforms a DocBook XML/SGML document to LaTeX. Once transformed into LaTeX, standard LaTeX tools are used to produce DVI, Postcript or PDF files. dblatex tries to hide as much as possible the latex compiling stuff by providing a single clean script to produce directly DVI, PostScript and PDF output. The actual output rendering is done not only by the XSL stylesheets transformation, but also by a dedicated LaTeX package. The goal is to allow a deep LaTeX customisation without changing the XSL stylesheets. Post-processing is done by Python, to make publication faster, convert the images if needed, and do the whole compilation.
