    Looks about right. I'm assuming you've validated the file.
    Note the added id value below? Not use if the stylesheets generate
    one if it's missing.

    <para>The production process starts with an <indexterm
    id="IXT-2-236308"><primary>XML source
    document</primary></indexterm>XML document that you have been given or
    that you have created; the source XML. You take that document and
    apply an XSLT transformation (using an XSLT stylesheet) to select
    parts or all of the document content, and produce an output XML
    document that uses the XSL-FO vocabulary. This <indexterm
    id="IXT-2-236309"><primary> documents</primary></indexterm>

    fo or html output Christopher?
