SYNOPSIS
- refdbjade [-h] [-I name] [-j jade-args] [-p prefix] [-s stylesheet] [-t format] [-v variable[=name]] file
DESCRIPTION
Note: If you prefer to transform your DocBook XML document with the XSL stylesheets as most people do these days, please use refdbxml(1) instead.
OPTIONS
-h
- Prints a command synopsis on the screen and exits
-I name
- Change the value of an entity declaration to include marked sections. Multiple entries are possible. These are passed as -i options to Jade/OpenJade.
-j jade-args
- Set additional command line options for Jade/OpenJade
-p prefix
- This determines a prefix that is added to all filenames that Jade/OpenJade create. This can be useful to avoid filename conflicts if you transform or use several DocBook documents in the same folder.
-s stylesheet
- This selects the stylesheet driver file. This file is generated by refdbib(1) (which in turn is called by runbib(1)) and contains additional formatting information.
-t format
- Select an output format with this option. Possible values are html, rtf, dvi, pdf, ps, tex, to generate HTML, RTF, DVI, PDF, PostScript, or JadeTeX output, respectively. Use tps and tpdf to create PostScript or PDF output, respectively, from the intermediate JadeTeX output generated by any of the switches dvi, pdf, ps, or tex. This is useful if you have to edit the intermediate JadeTeX file, e.g. to manually shift pagebreaks. If your DSSSL engine of choice is OpenJade, you can use htmlr to generate raw HTML output (the same as HTML but without these funny linefeeds in the end tags).
-v variable[=value]
- Change the value of a variable in the stylesheet. Multiple entries are possible. These are passed as such to Jade/OpenJade. The syntax "variable" causes "variable" to be set to "#t". The extended syntax "variable[=value]" sets the variable to the given value.
file
- The names of one or more SGML or XML files. Each document will be processed separately.
CONFIGURATION
Instead of using the command-line switches, refdbjade can also be configured by means of the refdbjaderc configuration file. As with all refdb configuration files, you may maintain a global copy in /usr/local/etc/refdb/ and one copy per user in $HOME.
Table 1. refdbjaderc
| Variable | Default |
Comment
|
| jade_includearg | none |

|
| jade_variable | none |
Change the value of a variable in the stylesheet. Multiple entries are possible. These are passed as -v options to Jade/OpenJade. The syntax "variable" causes "variable" to be set to "#t". The extended syntax "variable[=value]" sets the variable to the given value.
|
| jadeargs | none |
Set additional command line options for Jade/OpenJade. Use e.g. "-E 0" to disable the maximum error limit

ENVIRONMENT
SGML_CATALOG_FILES
This environment variable is consulted to resolve public identifiers in the SGML source documents. It is advisable to keep local copies of the DTD files and add OVERRIDE YES to the top of your catalog files. This ensures that the local copies are used and avoids unnecessary network traffic.
EXAMPLE
Here we'll use the files generated in the last example above (see runbib) and generate a nicely formatted PDF file:
-
~$ refdbjade -d J.Biol.Chem.dsl -t pdf mypaper.sgml
To obtain HTML output, you just change the output type switch:
-
~$ refdbjade -d J.Biol.Chem.dsl -t html mypaper.sgml
