[postgis-users] postgis doc in latex is OK

[TECHER Jean David]

Hi Paul


Few days ago, I made the conversion from postgis-out.xml to postgis.tex and
to postgis.pdf

i.e docbook to latex and to pdf...

It's OK... :-)

I used xsltproc from cygwin and dblatex to do the conversion (dblatex is
avalable at http://dblatex.sourceforge.net

I did :

from doc/Makefile:

postgis.tex: postgis-out.xml

	xslt-proc \
	--output $@ \
	--param shade.verbatim 1 \
	--param chunck.section.depth 0 \
	/home/david/dblatex-0.1.4.1/xsl/docbook.xsl \
	$<

I made two changes in postgis.tex

replace in line 589: 'force_2d' by 'force\_2d' and 'force_3d' by 'force\_3d'

replace in line 2257: 'length_spheroid' by 'length\_spheroid'

I put all *.sty file from dblatex  in postgis-0.9.0/doc in order to compil
latex->pdf.

I made few changes on *.sty for the author of the file (Tilte: PostGIS
0.9.0, Author: Paul Ramsey....)

then

pdflatex postgis.tex
pdflatex postgis.tex

The PDF is avalable at

http://www.01map.com/david/doc/postgis090/postgis.pdf

ALL files (postgis.tex,postgis.pdf,*.sty) are avalable at
