JlatexMath-1.0.8-SNAPSHOT and DocBook/FOP #91

Open christopheharo opened 2 years ago

Hello to all,

I'm back after a VERY long absence that took me away from many computer passions.

I have a lot of difficulties to use "jlatexmath-fop-1.0.8-SNAPSHOT" with my DocBooK/FOP installation on a "DEBIAN Bullseye (11.2)" station. All installations have been done with the official Debian packages; I got the jlatexmath.zip archive from here.

I am positively unable to use this package to include LaTex code in a DocBook file processed further by FOP. I previously used DocBook + FOP and JlatexMath successfully in all stages of my PDF development; but that was with a MacOS X laptop that has 14 years of daily use and is now out of service.

My question is this: Is it possible to use today DocBook + FOP in the latest versions (see below) currently available on Debian augmented with this latest version of Jlatexmath? Would there be incompatibility between these "two worlds"? And if so, how to solve this incompatibility? Do you have any links to help me out?


Previous versions used with MacOS X : DocBook 1.76.1; FOP 0.95; Jlatexmath-embedded-fop-0.9.6.jar

Current versions (nothing works with LaTex includes) with Debian Bullseye (11.2): DocBook 4.5-6; FOP 2.5 ; jlatexmath-fop-1.0.8-SNAPSHOT.jar

Java : openjdk 17.0.2 2022-01-18 OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 17.0.2+8-Debian-1deb11u1) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 17.0.2+8-Debian-1deb11u1, mixed mode, sharing)

These packages have all been installed recently.

Thank you in advance for your help. When I will have solved these problems, I will propose an update of the documentation included in the doc folder of the Jlatexmath archive; it is a bit old and obviously obsolete.
