    Some DocBook-related comments and questions:

    * "make psdocs" and "make pdfdocs" both fail in current tree, on Fedora
    Core 2 (FC2) and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 (RHEL4). Strangely enough,
    they fail on different files. I've attached output-psdocs.txt and
    output-pdfdocs.txt showing the errors I get.

    Both psdocs and pdfdocs -do- work for some files. Each target proceeds
    for a bit, and then finds a specific file it doesn't like, and dies.
    100% reproducible.

    In each failing case, I can use "db2ps" or "db2pdf" to successfully
    convert the XML file, whereas xmlto fails.

    * Can you make it easy to change the paper size to something custom,
    like 6x9in ?

    * Is there an example somewhere describing how to insert graphics
    (figures and charts) ?

    Regards and thanks,

            Jeff
