  • 1.  Upgrading from DocBook 4.5

    Posted 02-03-2012 19:18

    I'm considering upgrading my DocBook 4.5 toolchain and had some basic question before I start:

    - Where's the best guide on how to convert DocBook 4.5 XML files to DocBook 5.x? Is the Transition Guide (http://www.docbook.org/docs/howto/) the best place to start? Are there other guides?
    - Where should I go to download the RelaxNG schema?
    - Where should I go to download the latest DocBook XSL stylesheets for DocBook 5.x? Should I go here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/docbook/files/docbook-xsl-ns/
    - What tools for validation are there available for DocBook 5.x?
    - Are there any gotchas I should be aware of?
    - Is there any reason I shouldn't move to DocBook 5.1 (rather than DocBook 5.0)?

    Hello,

    you should find all needed info here: http://docbook.org/docs/howto/
    As for 5.1 it's not published yet, so moving to 5.0 should be a good
    first step.
