The three brands are grouped under the collapsible heading Brands and the DocBook components are grouped under the collapsible heading DocBook in the installer window. Refer to Chapter 5, Branding for an explanation of brands in Publican. Publican uses the DTD and the XSL stylesheets to render XML documents in other presentation formats (such as HTML and PDF). If you do not install these components, Publican must download this data from the Internet every time it processes a document, which creates lengthy delays.

$ publican command_optioncommand_option is any of several options for the $ publican command itself.
$ publican action action_optionsaction is an action for Publican to perform, such as creating the XML files for a new document or building a HTML document from a document's XML files. The action_options apply to the action, such as specifying the language of a document.
$ publican command_option action action_optionscommand_options affect the output of actions, for example, whether Publican should use ANSI colors in its output.

tmp/ subdirectory. The tmp/ subdirectory is created after running the $ publican build command to build a document, such as publican build --formats=html --langs=en-US.
Book_Name-title. For example, a section with a title of First Section in a book named Test_Book will have the following ID after you run $ publican clean_ids: <section id="Test_Book-First_Section">
Warning — $ publican clean_ids
$ publican clean_ids uses the first four characters of the tag as a prefix for the ID. Consequently, you must check out the latest versions of the XML source and translations before running this command.
$ publican clean_ids, the XML and PO files will no longer be in synchrony with each other. In this case, all links in the PO files must be manually updated.
Important — ID conflicts can occur
$ publican clean_ids command is intended to facilitate building a DocBook structure around documents ported from other formats such as HTML. However, publican clean_ids is file-based and and only has access to information in the XML file that it is currently processing and to the document name. Therefore, nodes of the same type that have the same title receive the same IDs. These duplicate IDs will prevent the document from building.
$ publican clean_ids command to assist you in laying out your document, but expect that some manual adjustment to IDs might be necessary. We recommend that you do not run publican clean_ids on an already well established document.
publican.cfg. Refer to Section 4.1.1, “The publican.cfg file” for more detail.
language_codelanguage_code. For every PO file generated by Publican, a table displays the number of untranslated strings in all msgids; the number of fuzzy strings (counts the strings contained in msgids whose content changed since the last POT generation) and the number of translated strings, coinciding after translation, with the the number of strings contained in the msgid.

$ publican create command to create a new document, including all the necessary files for the document.
$ publican create command accepts several options, detailed in this chapter. When an option can accept a value, separate the option from the value with a space or an equals sign; for example, publican create --name New_Book or publican create --name=New_Book.
--help$ publican create command options.
--name Doc_NameDoc_Name as the name of the book or article. This variable must not contain any spaces. For example, the command $ create_book --name Test_Book creates a book named Test_Book with all the necessary files to build the book, and sets the BOOKID in the Test_Book.ent file.
--lang Language_CodeLanguage_Code as the language code of the language in which the book or article will be authored. If you do not specify a language code, Publican defaults to en-US (American English). The --lang option sets the xml_lang in the publican.cfg file and creates a directory with this name in the document directory. When initially created, this directory contains some boilerplate XML files. Refer to Section 4.1.1, “The publican.cfg file” for more information on publican.cfg parameters and Appendix G, Language codes for more detail on language codes.
--version versionversion as the version number of the product that the book describes. For example, for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.1 you would use 5.1. The default version is 0.1. The --version option sets the <productnumber> tag in the Book_Info.xml or Article_Info.xml file. For more information refer to Section 4.1.2, “Book_Info.xml”.
--edition editionedition as the edition number of the book. This number indicates to users when a new edition of the book is released. The initial general availability (GA) release of the book should be edition 1.0. The default value is 0. The --edition option sets the <edition> tag in the Book_Info.xml or Article_Info.xml file. For more information refer to Section 4.1.2, “Book_Info.xml”.
--product Product_NameProduct_Name as the name of the product that the book describes. This variable must not contain any spaces. For example, set this to Fedora for core Fedora documentation, and the name of the product for other products, for example, Fedora_Directory_Server. The default value is Documentation. The --product option sets the <product name> tag in the Book_Info.xml file or Article_Info.xml file and the PRODUCT entity in the Doc_Name.ent--type Article --name Article_NameArticle_Name with the article name. This variable must not contain any spaces. The --type option sets the type in the publican.cfg file. Refer to Section 4.1.1, “The publican.cfg file” for more information on publican.cfg parameters.
--type Set --name Set_NameSet_Name with the set name. This variable must not contain any spaces. The --type option sets the type in the publican.cfg file. Refer to Section 4.1.1, “The publican.cfg file” for more information on publican.cfg parameters and to Chapter 6, Using sets for details on using sets.
--brand brandbrand as the brand to use to style the output of this document, for example, RedHat, fedora, JBoss, oVirt, or GIMP. The default value is common, a default brand shipped with Publican. The --brand option sets the brand parameter in the publican.cfg file. Refer to Section 4.1.1, “The publican.cfg file” for more information on publican.cfg parameters. This option requires the appropriate Publican brand package to be installed. For example, to build Red Hat branded books, you must install the publican-redhat package. Refer to Section 5.1, “Installing a brand” for instructions on installing brand packages for Publican. If you do not specify a brand, Publican uses its built-in, default brand. Refer to Chapter 5, Branding for more information.
$ publican create command, use the $ cd command to change into the directory where you want the book to be created. For example, to create a book named Test_Book in the my_books/ directory, run the following commands:
$cd my_books/$publican create --name Test_Book
$ls
Test_Book/Test_Book/ directory on a computer with a Linux operating system, run the following:
$cd Test_Book/$ls
en-US/ publican.cfg$ publican create --name Test_Book --lang en-US, Publican creates a directory structure and required files, similar to the following:
publican.cfg
en-US (directory)
Test_Book.xml
Test_Book.ent

$publican build --formats html,pdf --langs en-US,de-DE,hu-HU --config community.cfg
publican.cfg file configures build options, and is located in the root of the book directory. The following is an example publican.cfg file, with a description of publican.cfg parameters following afterwards:
# Config::Simple 4.59 # Wed Jul 18 13:00:40 2012 xml_lang: "en-US" type: Book brand: common
Default parameters
xml_langen-US, as set by the --lang option for $ publican create.
type<article>, DocBook <book>, or DocBook <set>, as set by the --type option for $ publican create.
brandRedHat, fedora, JBoss, oVirt or GIMP , as set by the --brand option for $ publican create. If you do not specify a brand, Publican uses its default brand. Refer to Chapter 5, Branding for more information.
Advanced parameters
archarch: x86_64 in the publican.cfg file, Publican will only include XML elements tagged with the equivalent attribute, such as <para arch="x86_64">.
Use with caution
arch can cause great difficulties when translating documents. Refer to Section 4.9.1, “Conditional tagging and translation” for an explanation of the issues.
arch set for root nodes
arch attribute, your document will not build, because empty files are not valid XML. For example, if Installation_and_configuration-PPC.xml contains a single chapter:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?> <!DOCTYPE chapter PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd" [ ]> <chapter id="chap-Installation_and_configuration_on_PowerPC" arch="PowerPC"> <title>Installation and configuration on PowerPC</title> [text of chapter] </chapter>
User_Guide.xml with an <xi:include> tag, the document will not build with $ condition: x86 set in the publican.cfg file.
arch attribute to the <xi:include> tag in User_Guide.xml, not to the <chapter> tag in Installation_and_configuration-PPC.xml.
xrefs and the arch attribute
<xref> points to content not included in the build due to the arch attribute, the build will fail. For example, with arch: x86 set in the publican.cfg file, $ publican build --formats=pdf --langs=en-US will fail if the book has the tag <xref linkend="Itanium_installation"> pointing to <section id="Itanium_installation" arch="IA64">.

<xi:include> tag in User_Guide.xml, not to the <chapter> tag in Installation_and_configuration_on_Fedora.xml.
xrefs and conditional tagging
<xref> points to content not included in the build due to conditional tagging, the build will fail. For example, with $ condition: upstream set in the publican.cfg file, $ publican build --formats=pdf --langs=en-US will fail if the book has the tag <xref linkend="betasection"> pointing to <section id="betasection" condition="beta">.
confidential1, Publican adds the text specified by the confidential_text parameter (by default, CONFIDENTIAL) to the foot of each HTML page and the head of every page in a PDF document. The default value is 0 (no header or footer).
confidential_textconfidential parameter is set to 1. The default text is CONFIDENTIAL.
debug0, Publican does not display debugging messages. Change this value to 1 to view these messages.

extras_dirextras)
footergenerate_section_toc_level0, Publican will generate tables of contents at the start of the document and in parts, chapters, and appendixes, but not in sections. If (for example) the value is set to 1, tables of contents also appear in each "level 1" section, such as sections 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, and 2.2. If set to 2, tables of contents also appear in "level 2" sections, such as sections 1.1.1, 1.1.2, and 1.2.1.
Example 4.2. Setting the section depth at which tables of contents appear
ignored_translationses-ES,it-IT. If you build or package a book for a language filtered by this parameter, Publican ignores any translations that exist for this language, and builds or packages the book in the language of the original XML instead. Refer to Section 4.6, “Preparing a document for translation”, and to Appendix G, Language codes.
img_dirimages)
info_filelicensemax_image_widthImportant — 444 pixels is the maximum safe width

Help from the command line
$ publican help_config command in the root directory of a book for a summary of these parameters.
Article_Info.xml and Set_Info.xml
Book_Info.xml file applies to Article_Info.xml and Set_Info.xml files too. However, for the sake of simplicity, the file is referred to as Book_Info.xml throughout this section.
Packages other than RPM packages
$ publican package command, Publican generates a tarball that you can use to build a package to distribute through different package manager software. If you run publican package on a computer on which rpmbuild is not installed, Publican still generates the tarball, even though it cannot then generate an RPM package from that tarball.
Book_Info.xml file contains the key metadata concerning a book: the book's ID; title; subtitle; author and edition number. It also contains the name and version of the product that is documented, and an abstract.
Book_Info.xml must have appropriate data within them, and that data must conform to the requirements of the RPM format. You can override the data in these tags by using equivalent fields in the publican.cfg file, as discussed in this section.
publican.cfg file, data from seven of the default tags in Book_Info.xml is required to build books as RPMs. Most immediately, the file name of a book built as an RPM package is constructed as follows:
productname-title-productnumber-language-edition-pubsnumber.src.rpmlanguage above is pulled from Book_Info.xml — you specify language when you build the book. As well, the <subtitle> and <abstract> are used in the RPM spec file, to provide the Summary: field in the header and the %description field, respectively.
Book_Info.xml file, for the Test_Book book, is presented below. Details regarding this file, and what the RPM format requirements are for each tag, follow.

<productname>productname</productname>Red Hat Enterprise Linux or JBoss Enterprise Application Platform. When building a book as an RPM package, data in the <productname> tag is used as part of the file name of the package.
product variable in the publican.cfg file if the name of your product contains non-Latin characters, accented Latin characters, or punctuation marks other than the underscore.
Permitted characters
publican.cfg file. If you do not override this tag in the publican.cfg file, this tag must only contain upper- and lower-case un-accented letters, digits, and the hyphen-minus, period, underscore, and plus characters (‘a–z’, ‘A–Z’, ‘0’–‘9’, and ‘-’, ‘.’, ‘_’, and ‘+’) if you plan to build packages with Publican.
<title>title</title><title>Server Configuration Guide</title>). The title appears under the product name in both HTML and PDF editions. A title is required to build an RPM package. When building a book as an RPM package the title is used as the part of the file name of the package.
docname parameter in the publican.cfg file to set a name for the document in ASCII characters. When you build the document, the title appears as you set it with the <title> tag, but when you package the document, the value that you used in the docname parameter is used in the file name of the RPM package.
Permitted characters
publican.cfg file. If you do not override this tag in the publican.cfg file, this tag must only contain upper- and lower-case un-accented letters, digits, and the hyphen-minus, period, underscore, and plus characters (‘a–z’, ‘A–Z’, ‘0’–‘9’, and ‘-’, ‘.’, ‘_’, and ‘+’) if you plan to build packages with Publican.
<title> tag to find the file that contains the root XML node: <article>, <book>, or <set>. For example, if you set the title to <title>Server Configuration Guide</title>, Publican expects the root XML node to be in a file named Server_Configuration_Guide.xml and the document entities to be in a file named Server_Configuration_Guide.ent. To use a different name for these files, set the mainfile parameter in the document configuration file (by default, publican.cfg). Refer to Section 4.1.1, “The publican.cfg file”.
<subtitle>subtitle</subtitle>Summary in the RPM spec file. The rpm -qi command returns the contents of several spec file fields, including the Summary field.
<productnumber>productnumber</productnumber>$ publican create --name Doc_Name --version version command correctly configures the product number.
version variable in the publican.cfg file if the product version is anything other than a number.
Permitted characters
publican.cfg file. If you do not override this tag in the publican.cfg file, this tag must only contain numbers and the period (‘0–9’ and ‘.’) if you plan to build packages with Publican.
<edition>edition</edition>x for pre-release versions of a book). Subsequent editions should increment the 1.x to indicate to readers that the book is a new edition. The edition changes the version number in the file name when building a book with the $ publican package command.
1.2 and building the book using the $ publican package --binary --lang=en-US command creates an RPM file named productname-title-productnumber-en-US-1.2-0.src.rpm$ publican create --name Doc_Name --edition x.y command correctly configures the edition.
edition variable in the publican.cfg file if the edition of your document is identified by anything other than a number.
Permitted characters
publican.cfg file. If you do not override this tag in the publican.cfg file, this tag must only contain numbers and the period (‘0–9’ and ‘.’) if you plan to build packages with Publican.
<pubsnumber>pubsnumber</pubsnumber>$ publican package command. For example, setting the pubsnumber to 1 and building the book using the publican package --binary --lang=en-US command creates an RPM file named productname-title-productnumber-en-US-edition-1.src.rpmrelease variable in the publican.cfg file if the release number of your document contains anything other than whole numbers.
Permitted characters

<abstract><para>abstract</para></abstract>Description field of the RPM's spec file. This makes the abstract for a package available via the rpm -qi command.
Book_Info.xml file of a document, to support specific features in various output formats:
<keywordset>, <keyword><keyword> and placed within a <keywordset> are added to a <meta name="keywords"> entry in the head of HTML files and to the Keywords field of the properties of a PDF document.
<subjectset>, <subject><subject> and placed within a <subjectset> are added to the Subject field of the properties of a PDF document and in the metadata of an ebook in EPUB format.
scheme attibute in the <subjectset> tag, for example, <subjectset scheme="libraryofcongress">. You can search for LCSH subject headings through the Library of Congress Authorities & Vocabularies page: http://id.loc.gov/authorities/search/.
<mediaobject role="cover" id="epub_cover"><mediaobject> tag with the role="cover" and id="epub_cover" attributes to set cover art for an ebook in EPUB format. For example:
<mediaobject role="cover" id="epub_cover"> <imageobject role="front-large" remap="lrg"> <imagedata width="600px" format="PNG" fileref="images/front_cover.png"/> </imageobject> <imageobject role="front" remap="s"> <imagedata format="PNG" fileref="images/front_cover.png"/> </imageobject> <imageobject role="front-small" remap="xs"> <imagedata format="PNG" fileref="images/front_cover.png"/> </imageobject> <imageobject role="thumbnail" remap="cs"> <imagedata format="PNG" fileref="images/front_cover_thumbnail.png"/> </imageobject> </mediaobject>
images subdirectory.
Book_Info.xml used by Publican includes an <edition> tag.
Book_Info.xml also includes the <pubsnumber> tag. Any data placed within this tag changes the release number of RPM-packaged books.
<productnumber> tag also found in Book_Info.xml: <productnumber> denotes the version number of the product being documented or otherwise written about.
<pubsnumber> tag, not the <edition> tag. It functions as a near-equivalent to the impression or printing number of traditional publishing.
Author_Group.xml is not required but is the standard place to record author, editor, artist and other credit details. The following is an example Author_Group.xml file:
<?xml version='1.0'?> <!DOCTYPE authorgroup PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd" [ ]> <authorgroup> <corpauthor>FF0000 Headgear Documentation Group</corpauthor> <author> <firstname>Dude</firstname> <surname>McDude</surname> <affiliation> <orgname>My Org</orgname> <orgdiv>Best Div in the place</orgdiv> </affiliation> <email>dude.mcdude@myorg.org</email> </author> </authorgroup>
Author_Group.xml does not have to contain all of the above information: include as much or as little as required.
Articles and chapters
--type=article option with $ publican create, Publican does not create a Chapter.xml file. Use sections to organize content within articles.
Chapter.xml file is a template for creating chapter files. Chapter files contain the content that make up a book. The following is a chapter template (Chapter.xml) that is created by the $ publican create command. Note the DOCTYPE is set to chapter:
<?xml version='1.0'?> <!DOCTYPE chapter PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd" [ ]> <chapter id="MYBOOK-Test"> <title>Test</title> <para> This is a test paragraph </para> <section id="MYBOOK-Test-Section_1_Test"> <title>Section 1 Test</title> <para> Test of a section </para> </section> <section id="MYBOOK-Test-Section_2_Test"> <title>Section 2 Test</title> <para> Test of a section </para> </section> </chapter>
Section 1 Test and Section 2 Test. Refer to http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/chapter.html for further information about chapters.
Note
Installation.xml, whereas a chapter on setting up a piece of software would be better called Setup.xml or Configuration.xml.
Doc_Name.xmlxi:include directives to include the other necessary XML files for the document, including chapters or sections contained in other XML files. For example, a book's Doc_Name.xmlDoc_Name.xmlDOCTYPE is set to book.
Example 4.4. A DocBook book
<?xml version='1.0'?> <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd" [ ]> <book> <xi:include href="Book_Info.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" /> <xi:include href="Preface.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" /> <xi:include href="Chapter.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" /> <xi:include href="Revision_History.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" /> <index /> </book>
Book_Info.xml, Preface.xml, Chapter.xml, and Appendix.xml XML files.
Important
Book_Info.xml will precede Preface.xml which will precede Chapter.xml, and so on.
Doc_Name.xmlxi:include directives. You can create documents with a single XML file. The following is an example of a book created using a single XML file:
<book> <chapter> <title>Chapter 1</title> <para> A paragraph in Chapter 1. </para> <section id="section1"> <title>Chapter 1 Section 1</title> <para> A paragraph in Section 1. </para> </section> <section id="section2"> <title>Chapter 1 Section 2</title> <para> A paragraph in Section 2. </para> </section> </chapter> <chapter> <title>Chapter 2</title> <para> A paragraph in Chapter 2. </para> </chapter> </book>
Doc_Name.entYEAR and HOLDER entities are used for copyright information. By default, Publican sets YEAR to the current year, and inserts a message into HOLDER to remind you to specify the copyright holder for the document. If the YEAR and HOLDER entities are missing altogether, the document will not build.
BOOKID to specify how readers should refer to a document when they submit feedback about it.
<!ENTITY PRODUCT "MYPRODUCT"> <!ENTITY BOOKID "MYBOOK"> <!ENTITY YEAR "2008"> <!ENTITY HOLDER "YOUR NAME GOES HERE">
Use entities with extreme caution
&FDS; instead of Fedora Directory Server saves the writer time but transformed entities do not appear in the portable object (PO) files that translators use. Complete translations of documents containing entities are, as a consequence, impossible.
<!ENTITY LIFT "Liberty Installation and Formatting Tome"> — you can enter &LIFT; in your XML and it will appear as Liberty Installation and Formatting Tome every time the book is built as HTML, PDF or text.
Liberty Installation and Formatting Tome. Instead they see &LIFT;, which they cannot translate.
As noted in the Liberty Installation and Formatting Tome, Chapter 3…

&PRODUCT;. The advantage of this approach is that by simply changing this value in the Doc_Name.entFedora never varies in English, it has multiple forms in other languages. For example, in Czech the name Fedora has six different forms, depending on one of seven ways in which you can use it in a sentence:
Table 4.1. 'Fedora' in Czech
| Case | Usage | Form |
|---|---|---|
| Nominative | the subject of a sentence | Fedora |
| Genitive | indicates possession | Fedory |
| Accusative | the direct object of a sentence | Fedoru |
| Dative | the indirect object of a sentence | Fedoře |
| Vocative | the subject of direct address | Fedoro |
| Locative | relates to a location | Fedoře |
| Instrumental | relates to a method | Fedorou |
me and she is not correct. Me is the accusative form of the pronoun, but because it is the subject of the sentence, the pronoun should take the nominative form, I. Similarly, she is nominative case, but as the direct object of the sentence the pronoun should take its accusative form, her.
Doc_Name.entimages subdirectory in the directory that holds your XML files. Use ./images/image-name to insert images into a book. The following is an example that inserts the testimage.png image:
<mediaobject> <imageobject> <imagedata fileref="./images/testimage.png" /> </imageobject> <textobject><phrase>alternate text goes here</phrase></textobject> </mediaobject>
<textobject> so that your content remains accessible to people with visual impairments. In certain jurisdictions, you might have a legal responsibility to provide this accessibility — for example, if you or your organization must comply with Section 508 of the United States Rehabilitation Act of 1973.[1]
images subdirectories for each language directory. Make sure that the image file in the translated language has the same name as the image file in the original language. When you build the book in the translated language, Publican uses the file from the images/ subdirectory of the translated language instead of the file from the images/ subdirectory of the original language.
<imagedata> tag. For example, to set an image width to 670 pixels:
<imagedata fileref=".images/image.png" width="670px">
Image file locations
images subdirectory of your XML directory and corresponding images in the images subdirectories of your translated languages. Images stored in other directories directories do not work.
PNG files in PDF documents
Add alpha channel, the option might be labeled Add transparency instead.
extras/ in your source language directory and use an <xi:include> to pull the code file into the XML structure of your document. Publican does not parse any files that it finds in the extras/ directory as XML.
& and <. If you insert code samples directly into the XML of your document, you must escape these characters, either by marking them as CDATA or by replacing them with entities (& and < respectively).[2] If you place these files in the extras/ directory, you do not need to escape these characters. This approach saves time, reduces the chances of introducing errors into either the document XML or the code itself, and makes future maintenance of the document and the code easier.
extras/ directory in your document, follow this procedure:
$mkdiren-US/extras
$cp~/samples/foo.c en-US/extras/.
xi:include the sample file in your xml file
<programlisting> <xi:include parse="text" href="extras/foo.c" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" /> </programlisting>
en-US/extras/foo.c in your favorite editor without having to be concerned about how it will affect the XML.
<programlistingco> <areaspec> <area id="orbit-for-parameter" coords='4 75'/> <area id="orbit-for-magnitude" coords='12 75'/> </areaspec> <programlisting language="Fortran"><xi:include parse="text" href="extras/orbit.for" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" /></programlisting> <calloutlist> <callout id="callout-for-parameter" arearefs="orbit-for-parameter"> <para> The <firstterm>standard gravitational parameter</firstterm> (μ) is a derived value, the product of Newton's gravitational constant (G) and the mass of the primary body. </para> </callout> <callout id="callout-for-magnitude" arearefs="orbit-for-magnitude"> <para> Since the mass of the orbiting body is many orders of magnitude smaller than the mass of the primary body, the mass of the orbiting body is ignored in this calculation. </para> </callout> </calloutlist> </programlistingco>
<area> elements that define the position of the callouts that will appear on the code sample. The coords attributes specify a line number and a column number separated by a space. In this example, callouts are applied to lines 4 and 12 of the code, lined up with each other in column 75. Although this approach means that you might have to adjust coords attributes if you ever modify the code to which they apply, it avoids mixing XML <coords> tags into the code itself.
files in the language directory for the original language (e.g. en-US) of the book (e.g. My_Book).
My_Book:
$mkdir en-US/files
files:
$cp arbitrary_files en-US/files
$ publican rename command makes it easy for you to rename a document to give it a new title, or to change the name or version of the product to which the document applies. The command accepts up to three options:
--name new_title$publican rename --name "Server Deployment Guide"
<title> tag in the Article_Info.xml, Book_Info.xml, or Set_Info.xml file, and sets a value for the mainfile parameter in the publican.cfg file so that Publican can still find the root XML node and the entities for the document.
$ publican rename command does not change any file names. Therefore, the root XML node and the document entities are still located in files named after the original title of the document — Server_Configuration_Guide in the previous example.
--product new_product$publican rename --product PendantFarm
<productname> tag in the Article_Info.xml, Book_Info.xml, or Set_Info.xml file.
--version new_version$publican rename --version 2.0
<productnumber> tag in the Article_Info.xml, Book_Info.xml, or Set_Info.xml file.
$publican rename --name "Server Deployment Guide" --product PendantFarm --version 2.0
$publican update_pot
pot. The pot subdirectory holds a POT file for each XML file in the document. If Publican has created POT files for this document previously, Publican updates the existing POT files to reflect any changes in the XML since the POT files were last updated.
Remove unused XML files
$ publican print_unused command to generate a list of XML files that are not used in your document.
$publican update_po --langs=language_code
language_code is the code for the target language. Refer to Appendix G, Language codes for more information about language codes. You can provide multiple language codes, separated by commas, to generate PO files for more than one language at a time. For example:
$publican update_po --langs=hi-IN,pt-BR,ru-RU,zh-CN
--langs= option. This subdirectory holds a PO file for each POT file in pot subdirectory. If Publican has created PO files for this language previously, Publican updates the existing PO files to reflect any changes in the POT files since the PO files were last updated. You can update existing PO files in every subdirectory with the --langs=all option:
$publican update_po --langs=all
Remove unused POT files
pot directory, whether the POT file is based on a corresponding XML file that is used in the document or not, or whether a corresponding XML file even exists. If you transform POT files for unused or deleted XML files into PO files, you waste the time and effort of volunteer translators, and waste money if you are paying for translations.
$publican build --formats=html,html-single,pdf --langs=is-IS,nb-NO
$publican package --lang=is-IS
--langs=all option, but note that you must package each language individually. Refer to Section 4.7, “Building a document” for more information on building a document, and Section 4.8, “Packaging a document” on packaging a document.
Important — set Project-Id-Version for packaging
Project-Id-Version parameter in the Article_Info.po or Book_Info.po file. For example, release 3 of a book in Japanese would have the following set at the start of the ja-JP/Book_Info.po file:
"Project-Id-Version: 3\n"
$translation/Author_Group.xml and add a valid DocBook authorgroup. The translator can add their details to this file and Publican will append it to $source_lang/Author_Group.xml when the book is build. This allows authors to finalize the original text without needing to know who will translate the book.
Note — Customizing output
publican.cfg) allow you to control many aspects of the way in which a document is presented — refer to Section 4.1.1, “The publican.cfg file”.
--config to specify which configuration file (and therefore which set of parameters) to use in a particular build, for example:
$publican build --formats html,pdf --langs en-US,de-DE,hu-HU --config community.cfg
YEAR and HOLDER entities have been configured in the Doc_Name.entDoc_Name.ent”.
Test_Book and is located in the ~/books/ directory, run the following command:
$cd ~/books/Test_Book
$publican build --formats=test --langs=en-US
$publican build --formats=formats--langs=languages
formats with a comma-separated list of the formats that you want to build; for example, html,html-single,pdf. Replace langs with a comma-separated list of the languages that you want to build; for example, en-US,sv-SE,uk-UA,ko-KR.
Formats for the build action
htmlchunk_first and chunk_section depth parameters in the publican.cfg file to control how Publican chunks sections in this format.
html-singlehtml-desktopmanpdftesttxtepubeclipseid, name, and provider-name parameters with Publican's ec_id, ec_name, and ec_provider parameters.
$ publican build commands:
$ publican build --help$ publican build options for building a book.
$ publican build --formats=test --langs=languages--formats=test before running any other $ publican build command, and before checking a book back into a version-controlled repository from which other contributors might download it.
$ publican build --formats=html --langs=languagesDoc_Name/tmp/language/html/chunk-section-depth parameter in the publican.cfg — refer to Section 4.1.1, “The publican.cfg file”.
$ publican build --formats=html-single --langs=languagesDoc_Name/tmp/language/html-single/$ publican build --formats=pdf --langs=languagesDoc_Name/tmp/language/pdf/$ publican build --formats=html,html-single,pdf --langs=languages<xref>s) to sections of the document that do not yet exist. To skip validation, run $ publican build with the --novalid option. Cross-references to non-existent content appear in the built document as three question marks: ???.
--novalid option is highly suspect. Do not publish documentation that you have built with the --novalid option.
Packages other than RPM packages
$ publican package command, Publican generates a tarball that you can use to build a package to distribute through different package manager software. If you run publican package on a computer on which rpmbuild is not installed, Publican still generates the tarball, even though it cannot then generate an RPM package from that tarball.
Note — Customizing output
publican.cfg) allow you to control many aspects of the way in which a document is presented and packaged — refer to Section 4.1.1, “The publican.cfg file”.
--config to specify which configuration file (and therefore which set of parameters) to use in a particular build, for example:
$publican package --lang hi-IN --config community.cfg
/usr/share/doc/, the location specified by the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS) for ‘Miscellaneous documentation’.[3] The desktop RPM package also contains a desktop file, to be placed in /usr/share/applications/. This file enables desktop environments to add the installed document to their menus for ease of reference by users. By default, the menu item appears under → on the GNOME desktop. To customize the placement of the menu item, create a documentation menu package to supply .directory and .menu files and set the dt_requires and menu_category parameters in the publican.cfg file to require this package and supply the appropriate menu category. Refer to Section 4.8.1.3, “Desktop menu entries for documents”
web_formats parameter. The value of this parameter overrides the default formats that Publican packages. For example, to publish the document only as single-page HTML, PDF, and text, set web_formats: "html-single,pdf,txt"
/var/www/html/, a common document root for web servers. Note that the web SRPM package generates both a web binary RPM package and desktop binary RPM package.
.directory) file that provides metadata about the new submenu.
.menu) file that defines the position of the new submenu within the menu.
.directory file for Publican-generated documentation is as follows:
[Desktop Entry]
Name parameter, set to the name of the submenu that you want to place under the menu.
Name parameter, in the format Name[language_code] where language_code is a language code in glibc format, not the XML format that Publican uses for language codes.
Comment parameter, set to a description of the new submenu.
Comment parameter, in the format Comment[language_code] where language_code is a language code in glibc format, not the XML format that Publican uses for language codes.
Type parameter, set to Directory.
Encoding parameter, set to UTF-8.
Example 4.5. Example .directory file
menu-example.directory illustrates the structure of a desktop entry file.

$ publican package --lang=Language_Code command to package documents for distribution in the language that you specify with the --lang option. Refer to Appendix G, Language codes for more information about language codes.
$ publican package with no options other than the mandatory --lang option, Publican produces a web SRPM package. The full range of options for publican package is as follows:
--lang languageIncomplete translations
ignored_translations parameter in the document's publican.cfg file. The package will be named appropriately for the language, but will contain documentation in the original language of the XML rather than a partial translation. When translation is complete, remove the ignored_translations parameter, increase the release number in the Project-Id-Version field in the Book_Info.po file for that language, and generate the package again. When you distribute the revised package, it becomes available to replace the original untranslated package.
--config filenamepublican.cfg file.
--desktop--brew--scratch--brew and --desktop options, specifies that an SRPM package should be built as a scratch build when sent to Brew. Scratch builds are used to verify that an SRPM package is structured correctly, without updating the package database to use the resulting package.
--short_sightedversion in the publican.cfg file) in the package name.

-web- between the product version and the language code.
.src.rpm but binary RPM packages have the file extension .rpm
build_target.noarchbuild_target represents the operating system and version that the package is built for as set by the os_ver parameter in the publican.cfg file. The noarch element specifies that the package can be installed on any system, regardless of the system architecture.
--short_sighted option removes the -productnumber- from the package name.
Project-Id-Version parameter in the Article_Info.po or Book_Info.po file. This release number is specific to a particular language and bears no relationship to the release numbers of the same document in the original language or any other language.

For example, let's say the book How To Use Product Foo has an "upstream", "enterprise", and "beta" version:
<para condition="upstream"> <application>Foo</application> starts automatically when you boot the system. </para> <para condition="enterprise"> <application>Foo</application> only starts automatically when you boot the system when installed together with <application>Bar</application>. </para> <para condition="beta"> <application>Foo</application> does not start automatically when you boot the system. </para> <para condition="beta,enterprise"> To make <application>Foo</application> start automatically at boot time, edit the <filename>/etc/init.d/foo</filename> file. </para>
$ condition: version parameter to the publican.cfg file and run the $ publican build command as normal. For example, if you add condition: upstream to the publican.cfg file of How To Use Product Foo and run:
$publican build --formats=pdf --langs=en-US
condition="upstream" and builds How To Use Product Foo in as a PDF file in American English.
Root nodes and conditional tagging
Installation_and_configuration_on_Fedora.xml contains a single chapter:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?> <!DOCTYPE chapter PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd" [ ]> <chapter id="chap-Installation_and_configuration_on_Fedora" condition="Fedora"> <title>Installation and configuration on Fedora</title> [text of chapter] </chapter>
User_Guide.xml with an <xi:include> tag, the document will not build with $ condition: Ubuntu set in the publican.cfg file.
<xi:include> tag in User_Guide.xml, not to the <chapter> tag in Installation_and_configuration_on_Fedora.xml.
xrefs and conditional tagging
<xref> points to content not included in the build due to conditional tagging, the build will fail. For example, with $ condition: upstream set in the publican.cfg file, $ publican build --formats=pdf --langs=en-US will fail if the book has the tag <xref linkend="betasection"> pointing to <section id="betasection" condition="beta">.
Use conditional tagging with great caution
#. Tag: para #, no-c-format msgid "<application>Foo</application> starts automatically when you boot the system." msgstr "" #. Tag: para #, no-c-format msgid "<application>Foo</application> only starts automatically when you boot the system when installed together with <application>Bar</application>." msgstr "" #. Tag: para #, no-c-format msgid "<application>Foo</application> does not start automatically when you boot the system." msgstr "" #. Tag: para #, no-c-format msgid "To make <application>Foo</application> start automatically at boot time, edit the <filename>/etc/init.d/foo</filename> file." msgstr ""
publican.cfg file and are aware of the valid conditions for your book, they cannot proofread their work. Without that knowledge, when translators proofread a document, they will wonder why they cannot find text that they know they translated and can find easily in the PO file. If you must use conditionals in your book, you must be prepared to provide a greater degree of support to your translators than you would otherwise provide.
upstream.cfg file might contain the condition condition: upstream and the enterprise.cfg file might contain the condition condition: enterprise. You could then specify the version of the document to build or package with the --config; for example, $ publican package --lang en-US --config upstream.cfg. Using two separate config files saves you from having to edit the one config file each time you build or package a document.
<subtitle> tag in your Book_Info.xml file. Place this additional text in <remark> tags. For example:
<subtitle>Using Red Hat Enterprise Warp Drive<remark> Version 1.1, Beta 2</remark></subtitle>
show_remarks to the publican.cfg file and set it to '1':
show_remarks: 1
<remark> tag and the show_remarks setting in place, the pre-release nature of the software is displayed clearly and unmistakably. PDF builds display the remark on their cover and title pages. HTML builds (both single-page HTML and multiple-page HTML) display the remark near the beginning of index.html.
Book_Info.xml used to generate RPMs, it also ensures there is no ambiguity in the RPM subsystem's operation.
Important
<remark> tag and its contents and remove or turn off show_remarks when documentation is updated for use with the release version of the software.

$ create_brand action to create a new brand. When you create a new brand, you must give it a name and specify the original language for the brand's XML files. The --name option provides the name, and the --lang option specifies the language. The complete command is therefore:
$publican create_brand --name=brand--lang=language_code
publican-brand, where brand is the brand that you specified with the --name option.
Acme, which will have its Common Content XML files written originally in American English, run:
$publican create_brand --name=Acme --lang=en-US
publican-Acme.
SETUP in the default files that Publican creates and edit the files to provide the missing details. On Linux operating systems, you can search for the word SETUP in these files with the command:
$grep -r 'SETUP' *
$ publican create_brand --name=brand --lang=language_code command creates a directory structure and the required files. The brand directory initially contains:

images subdirectory, which contains 43 images in both raster (PNG) and vector (SVG) formats.
publican.cfg file in a brand serves a similar purpose to the publican.cfg file in a document — it configures a number of basic options that define your brand.
version$ publican create_brand, the version number is set to 0.1. Update the version number here in the brand publican.cfg file and in the publican-brand.spec file when you prepare a new version of the brand.
12 in its publican.cfg file, but might be built with version 1.0 of the publican-fedora brand.
xml_langen-US, as set by the --lang option for $ publican create_brand.
release$ publican create_brand, the release number is set to 0. Update the version number here in the brand publican.cfg file and in the publican-brand.spec file when you prepare a new release of an existing version of the brand.
typetype: brand, this parameter identifies the contents of this directory as a brand, rather than a book, article, or set.
brand--name option for $ publican create_brand.
web_cfgweb_dirwwwdir in publican-brand.spec.
web_reqpublican.cfg file in its root directory, which configures build options for the document. Refer to Section 4.1.1, “The publican.cfg file” for a full description of these options. The defaults.cfg file and overrides.cfg file in a brand supply default values for any of the parameters that you can otherwise set with a document's publican.cfg file.
defaults.cfg file before it applies the values in the document's publican.cfg file. Values in the document's publican.cfg file therefore override those in the brand's defaults.cfg file.
overrides.cfg file, which therefore override any values in the brand's defaults.cfg file and the document's publican.cfg file.
defaults.cfg file to set values that you routinely apply to your brand but want to allow writers to change in particular books; use the overrides.cfg file for values that you do not want to allow writers to change.
banned_tags and banned_attrs respectively to either defaults.cfg or overrides.cfg. These will be listed by the Publican action print_banned.
COPYING file contains details of the copyright license for the package and perhaps the text of the license itself.
--lang option when you created the brand. This subdirectory contains XML and image files that override the default Common Content provided with Publican. Customizing these files provides your brand with its distinctive appearance, including its color scheme and logos.
Feedback.xml file is included by default in the preface of every book produced in Publican. It invites readers to leave feedback about the document. Customize this file with the contact details of your project. If your project uses a bug tracking system such as Bugzilla, JIRA, or Trac, you could include this information here.
Legal_Notice.xml file contains the legal notice that appears at the beginning of every document produced by Publican. Insert the details of your chosen copyright license into this file. Typically, this might include the name of the license, a short summary of the license, and a link to the full details of the license.
css subdirectory contains a single file: overrides.css.
images subdirectory contains 43 images in both portable network graphics (PNG) and scalable vector graphics (SVG) format. These images are placeholders for various navigation icons, admonition graphics, and brand logos. They include:
image_leftprod_url in the publican.cfg file for the document. Consider setting prod_url in the brand's defaults.cfg or overrides.cfg file.
image_rightdoc_url in the publican.cfg file for the document. If all the documentation for this brand is produced by the same team, consider setting doc_url in the brand's defaults.cfg or overrides.cfg file.
title_logonote, important, warning<note>, <important>, and <warning>.
dot, dot2<listitem>s in <itemizedlist>s.
stock-go-back, stock-go-forward, stock-go-up, stock-homeh1-bgwatermark_draftxsl in your brand: it sits at the same level as the various language files for your brand. Publican uses any XSL that it finds in that directory to override the XSL templates that we ship in the common brand (which in turn override the XSL templates that the DocBook project ships).
Important
Packages other than RPM packages
$ publican package command, Publican generates a tarball that you can use to build a package to distribute through different package manager software. If you run publican package on a computer on which rpmbuild is not installed, Publican still generates the tarball, even though it cannot then generate an RPM package from that tarball.
$ publican package command in the brand directory. When used without any further options, Publican produces an SRPM package. The options for packaging a brand are as follows:
--binary--brew--scratch--brew option, specifies that a SRPM package should be built as a scratch build when sent to Brew. Scratch builds are used to verify that a SRPM package is structured correctly, without updating the package database to use the resulting package.
--lang, --desktop and --short_sighted options that apply when you package books (described in Section 4.8, “Packaging a document”) are meaningless when you package brands. In particular, note that although the --lang option is mandatory when you package a book, you do not need to use it when you package a brand.
publican-brand-version-release.build_target.noarch.file_extension.
publican.cfg file to supply the various parameters in the file name. Refer to Section 5.3.1, “The publican.cfg file” for details of configuring this file. Additionally:
.src.rpm but binary RPM packages have the file extension .rpm
build_target.noarch[build_target] represents the operating system and version that the package is built for as set by the os_ver parameter in the publican.cfg file. The noarch element specifies that the package can be installed on any system, regardless of the system architecture.
$ create_book command creates a template for a set by setting the type parameter to Set.

$ cd into the My_Set/en-US directory and create two directories (not books) called Book_A and Book_B.
$cdMy_Set/en-US$mkdirBook_ABook_B
$ cd into the books/My_Set/en-US/Book_A directory. Create and edit the Book_A.xml, Book_Info.xml, and any other xml files required for your book such as those required for individual chapters. Ensure that Book_A.xml contains the correct xi:include references to all of your xml files in the directory. For example, if Book A contained Book_Info.xml and Chapter_1.xml, the Book_A.xml file would look like this:
<?xml version='1.0'?> <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd" [ ]> <book> <xi:include href="Book_Info.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"></xi:include> <xi:include href="Chapter_1.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"></xi:include> </book>

$ publican clean_ids command will be run over each book because of the constraint that IDs must be unique across all books. Be careful of creating IDs that rely on content that may not be available when building books independently of the set.
index.html — an index page that redirects to localized versions of a home page for the site.
interactive.css — a CSS stylesheet that contains styles for the navigation menu.
opds.xml — an Open Publication Distribution System (OPDS) catalog to allow compliant eBook readers to find EPUB documents on your site easily.
Sitemap — A Sitemap is a list of the URLs from your website and metadata about them, like update history, change frequency, and importance relative to other URLs in the site. A Sitemap can be supplied to many major search engines, where it is used to help their crawlers index your site more intelligently. A Sitemap does not guarantee that your site will be ranked higher in search results. However, it does help search engines to return the most relevant results from your website in response to user queries. For more information on Sitemaps, visit sitemaps.org.
site_overrides.css — a CSS stylesheet that overrides the styles contained in interactive.css to provide site-specific styles. This file is not created by the site creation process, but must be added manually later, or supplied by the site home page.
defualt.js — a JavaScript script that directs visitors to localized content based on the locale set in their browser and which controls the presentation of the navigation menu.
opds.xml and toc.html. Later it also contains opds-product.xml:
opds.xml — an OPDS catalog of EPUB documents in this language.
opds-product.xml — an OPDS catalog of EPUB documents for each product for which you publish documentation in this language. Within each product catalog, documentation is divided into <category>s for different versions of the same product.
toc.html — the table of contents for that language, initially without links to any documents.

host: http://docs.example.com
host to construct the URLs in the XML Sitemap that it creates for search engine crawlers, and to limit searches submitted through the search box in the navigation menu to results on your site only.
<form> with the search parameter. If you do not specify a custom web search, Publican creates a Google search limited to the host that you specified in the host parameter.
docs.example.com, set:
search: '<form target="_top" method="get" action="http://search.yahoo.com/search"> <div class="search"> <input type="text" name="p" value="" /> <input type="hidden" name="vs" value="docs.example.com" /> <input type="submit" value="###Search###" /> </div> </form>'

Important — the search parameter is not validated
search parameter, but builds the value of this parameter into the navigation menu exactly as you specify it. Be especially careful when you use this feature.
def_lang with a language code. For example:
def_lang: fr-FR
def_lang set to fr-FR, visitors viewing the navigation menu in (for example) Spanish are presented with a link to the original French version of the document if the document has not yet been translated into Spanish.
$ publican update_site command is run. Configure the dump, dump_file, and zip_dump parameters as follows:
dumpdump: 1 to enable the dump file function. This parameter defaults to 0 (off).
dump_filedump_file: name to specify the name of the dump file and the directory in which Publican stores it. This parameter defaults to /var/www/html/DUMP.xml.
zip_dumpzip_dump: 1 to specify that Publican should create a zipped version of the XML file together with the XML version. This parameter defaults to 0 (off).
manual_toc_update parameter, for example:
manual_toc_update: 1
$ publican update_site command.
toc_js parameter, for example:

/etc/publican-website.cfg file to specify the name of the site, the web host, and optionally, search parameters, default language, and dump file settings for the site:
title parameter, for example:
title: "Foomaster Documentation"
host parameter as a full URL, including the protocol (for example, http://). For example:
host: http://docs.example.com
host to construct the URLs in the XML Sitemap that it creates for search engine crawlers, and to limit searches submitted through the search box in the navigation menu to results on your site only.
<form> with the search parameter. If you do not specify a custom web search, Publican creates a Google search limited to the host that you specified in the host parameter.
docs.example.com, set:
search: '<form target="_top" method="get" action="http://search.yahoo.com/search"> <div class="search"> <input type="text" name="p" value="" /> <input type="hidden" name="vs" value="docs.example.com" /> <input type="submit" value="###Search###" /> </div> </form>'
value="###Search###" in the code for a submit button, Publican uses the word Search on the button, localized into any language that Publican supports.
Important — the search parameter is not validated
search parameter, but builds the value of this parameter into the navigation menu exactly as you specify it. Be especially careful when you use this feature.
def_lang with a language code. For example:
def_lang: fr-FR
def_lang set to fr-FR, visitors viewing the navigation menu in (for example) Spanish are presented with a link to the original French version of the document if the document has not yet been translated into Spanish.
$ publican update_site command is run. Configure the dump, dump_file, and zip_dump parameters as follows:
dumpdump: 1 to enable the dump file function. This parameter defaults to 0 (off).
dump_filedump_file: name to specify the name of the dump file and the directory in which Publican stores it. This parameter defaults to /var/www/html/DUMP.xml.
zip_dumpzip_dump: 1 to specify that Publican should create a zipped version of the XML file together with the XML version. This parameter defaults to 0 (off).
site_overrides.css. If you want to use site-specific styles to override those provided by interactive.css, you can add a site_overrides.css to the document that provides the site home page — refer to Section 7.2.2, “Creating, installing, and updating the home page”. If you do not want to use site-specific styles, the empty file you add here will prevent 404 errors on your server. On a Linux system, run:
#touch /var/www/html/docs/site_overrides.css

<article> with an extra web_type: home parameter in its publican.cfg file. In its structure and its presentation, the home page is the same as any other article that you produce with Publican and is packaged the same way.
$publican package --binary
/tmp/rpms/noarch/ directory of the home page. By default, Publican builds the RPM package for the operating system within which you are running Publican. To build an RPM package to install on a server that runs a different operating system, set the os_ver parameter in the home page's publican.cfg file.
rpm -i or yum localinstall command, or place the package in a repository and configure the webserver to install from that repository when you run yum install.
<edition> number or <pubsnumber> in the Article_Info.xml. Publican uses these values to set the version and release numbers for the RPM package. When you install this package on your webserver, yum can replace the old version with the new when you run yum localinstall for a local package, or yum update for a package fetched from a repository.

$ publican build command to create the CSV file for Drupal import. Before running the command, use the cd command to change into the directory where your book is located. For example, if you have a book call "User_Guide" in your home directory, then run the following command.
$cd User_Guide/$publican build --langs en-US --formats=drupal-book
tmp/en-US/drupal-book/ directory.
/tmp/en-US/drupal-book/ directory. This directory contains the following files:
$product-$version-$docname-$lang-$edition.csv
Important — Use version control system
$ publican build --langs en-US --formats=drupal-book command, you will notice that the xml files in the en-US directory had been changed. This is because Publican added a 'Conformance' attribute for every xml tag that has id. This attribute contains a number which is unique across xml files in the book. If you are using a version control system like git for your xml files, then you need to commit the changes so that the number won't get reset when other users run it. These unique numbers are very important, because they are use as the url path in drupal. Besides, Publican also created a database file name max_unique_id.db in the en-US directory. This database file is use to track the current maximum unique number in the book, so that Publican can know where you are up to and add a new unique number for your newly created Chapter or Section. Therefore, it is very important to add the database file to the version control and commit it if there is any change. If you add a new section in the xml, don't set the 'Comformance' attribute yourself as that will make the database outdated. Just leave it for publican to set it.

Warning — Section Chunking
$ publican update_po --langs=language, where language is the code for the new language that you want to add. You can add more than one language at a time, with the language codes separated by commas. For example, publican update_po --langs=ja-JP creates the Japanese language directory and Japanese PO files, and publican update_po --langs=ja-JP,ko-KR creates directories and PO files for both Japanese and Korean.
$ publican update_po --langs=es,de,fr?
zh-CN (Simplified Chinese as used in the People's Republic of China) and zh-TW (Traditional Chinese as used in the Republic of China, on Taiwan). Even when only one variety is currently defined, it is always safest to include the country code so that, for example, a future update of Publican does not suddenly cause your German (de-DE) documents to switch to Schweizerdeutsch (Swiss German, de-CH) Common Content and headings.
$ publican build --help command.

java.lang.NullPointerException and no PDF file is produced. What is wrong?
$ publican create command. If the problem is not just with one particular document, you probably have a mismatch between the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and the Java Development Kit (JDK) in use on your system. If you have a JDK installed, FOP requires that the JDK is of the same version as the JRE. Furthermore, FOP cannot use the GNU Compiler for Java (GCJ).
alternatives --config java and alternatives --config javac to determine which JRE and JDK are in use, then select versions that match and which do not have gcj in their name. For example, the following Java configuration shows a matching JRE and JDK that allow PDFs to build:
$alternatives --config javaThere are 3 programs which provide 'java'. Selection Command ----------------------------------------------- 1 /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.5.0-gcj/bin/java * 2 /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk/bin/java + 3 /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64/bin/java Enter to keep the current selection[+], or type selection number:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space when trying to build PDF. What is wrong?
$ publican build run echo "FOP_OPTS='-Xms50m -Xmx700m'" > ~/.foprc. This sets the initial heap space to 50 MB and allows it to grow to a maximum of 700 MB.
<para> tags while it transformed XML because empty <para> tags broke earlier translation toolchains used within Red Hat and the Fedora Project. Empty <para> tags are valid DocBook XML, and Publican no longer removes them.

Supported, unsupported, and disallowed
$ publican print_known to print a list of tags that Publican supports, and the command publican print_banned to print a list of tags that are banned in Publican.
<caution>, <tip><tip>, <note>, <important>, <caution>, and <warning>. Taken together, these represent a very fine-grained set of distinctions. It is unlikely that these fine distinctions can be applied consistently within a document, especially when more than one person writes or maintains the document. Moreover, this level of granularity is meaningless to readers. By design, Publican disallows the <tip> and <caution> elements, these elements being the two most redundant in the set.
<note> instead of <tip>, and use either <important> or <warning> instead of <caution>. Some criteria by which you might select a suitable level of severity are presented in the ‘Document Conventions’ section of the preface of books produced with Publican's default brand.

Naranja — la naranja es…

<inlinegraphic><inlinegraphic> is not valid in DocBook version 5.
<link><link> tag provides a general-purpose hyperlink and therefore offers nothing that the <xref> and <ulink> tags do not, for internal and external hyperlinks respectively. The <link> tag is disallowed due to its redundancy.
<olink><olink> tag provides cross-references between XML documents. For <olink>s to work outside of documents that are all hosted within the same library of XML files, you must provide a URL for the document to which you are linking. In environments that use <olink>s, these URLs can be supplied either as an XML entity or with a server-side script. Publican produces documents intended for wide dissemination in which URLs are always necessary for cross-references. Therefore, the <olink> tag offers no advantage over the <ulink> tag, and is disallowed due to its redundancy.
<[element] xreflabel="[any_string_here]"><xreflabel> attribute reduces the usability of printed versions of a book. As well, attribute values are not seen by translators and, consequently, cannot be translated.
<chapter id="ch03" xreflabel="Chapter Three"> <title>The Secret to Eternal Life</title> <para>The secret to eternal life is…</para> </chapter> [more deathless prose here] …see <xref linkend="ch03"> for details.
<xref> tag becomes an HTML anchor tag as follows:
…see <a href="#ch03">Chapter Three</a> for details.
<xreflabel> attribute. In this case, it means that readers of printed copies have less information available to them.
<xreflabel> attribute the same as the text within the <title></title> element tags. However, this duplication increases the risk of typo-level errors and otherwise offers no underlying improvement. And it still reduces the amount of information presented to readers of printed copies.
<chapter id="ch03" xreflabel="The Secret to Eternal Life"> <title>The Secret to Eternal Life</title> <para>The secret to eternal life is…</para> </chapter> [more deathless prose here] …see >xref linkend="ch03"> for details.
…see <a href="#ch03">The Secret to Eternal Life</a> for details.
<xreflabel> attribute. The following:
<chapter id="ch03"> <title>The Secret to Eternal Life</title> <para>The secret to eternal life is…</para> </chapter> [more deathless prose here] …see <xref linkend="ch03"> for details.
<xref> element as follows when built to HTML:
…see <a href="#ch03">Chapter 3: The Secret to Eternal Life</a> for details.
<xreflabel> tags cause. Attribute values are not seen by translators. Consequently, they are not translated. Consider the second example above again:
<chapter id="ch03" xreflabel="The Secret to Eternal Life"> <title>The Secret to Eternal Life</title> <para>The secret to eternal life is…</para> </chapter> [more deathless prose here] …see <xref linkend="ch03"> for details.
<xref> is still transformed into an anchor tag as follows:
…see <a href="#ch03">The Secret to Eternal Life</a> for details.
…Sehen Sie <a href="#ch03">The Secret to Eternal Life</a> für Details.
<xreflabel> attribute is not used, the title and chapter indicator, both properly translated, appear to the reader. That is, the following:
<chapter id="ch03"> <title>The Secret to Eternal Life</title> <para>The secret to eternal life is…</para> </chapter> [more deathless prose here] …see <xref linkend="ch03"> for details.
…Sehen Sie <a href="#ch03">Kapitel 3: Das Geheimnis des ewigen Lebens</a> für Details.
xreflabel attribute is therefore disallowed.
<[element] endterm="[any_string_here]">endterm attribute allows you to present hyperlinked text other than the name of the section or chapter to which the hyperlink points. As such, it decreases the usability of printed versions of documents, and causes difficulty for translators.
<xref>) that contains the endterm attribute is taken from a <titleabbrev> tag in the target chapter or section. Although the content of the <titleabbrev> tag is available to translators in the document's PO files, it is removed from the context of the <xref>. The absence of this context makes reliable translation impossible in languages that mark prepositions or articles for grammatical number and grammatical gender.
<chapter id="The_Secret"> <title>The Secret to Eternal Life</title> <titleabbrev id="final">the final chapter</titleabbrev> <para>The secret to eternal life is…</para> </chapter> [more deathless prose here] The solution is in <xref linkend="The_Secret" endterm="final"/>.
<xref> presents in the English version of the document as:
The solution is inthe final chapter.
<titleabbrev> in a PO file as:
#. Tag: titleabbrev #, no-c-format msgid "the final chapter" msgstr ""
<xref> elsewhere in the PO file (or, more likely, in a completely different PO file) as:
#. Tag: para #, no-c-format msgid "The solution is in <xref linkend="The_Secret" endterm="final"/>." msgstr ""
<xref linkend="The_Secret" endterm="final"/> when the document builds, so a translation in Italian might read:
#. Tag: para #, no-c-format msgid "The solution is in <xref linkend="The_Secret" endterm="final"/>." msgstr "La soluzione è in <xref linkend="The_Secret" endterm="final"/>."
in.
the final chapter in Italian as l'ultimo capitolo, the result when the document builds will read:
La soluzione è inl'ultimo capitolo.
La soluzione è nell'ultimo capitolo.
in to stand by itself, or which of seven different possible combinations with the definite article to use: nel, nei, nello, nell', negli, nella, or nelle.
<xref>, or in the <titleabbrev>. Whichever of these two solutions the translator selects will cause problems when the endterm appears in other grammatical contexts, because not all Italian prepositions can combine with the definite article in this way.
endterm presents for translation, Publican disallows this attribute.

archarch: x86_64 in the publican.cfg file, Publican will only include XML elements tagged with the equivalent attribute, such as <para arch="x86_64">.
Use with caution
arch can cause great difficulties when translating documents. Refer to Section 4.9.1, “Conditional tagging and translation” for an explanation of the issues.
arch set for root nodes
arch attribute, your document will not build, because empty files are not valid XML. For example, if Installation_and_configuration-PPC.xml contains a single chapter:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?> <!DOCTYPE chapter PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd" [ ]> <chapter id="chap-Installation_and_configuration_on_PowerPC" arch="PowerPC"> <title>Installation and configuration on PowerPC</title> [text of chapter] </chapter>
User_Guide.xml with an <xi:include> tag, the document will not build with $ condition: x86 set in the publican.cfg file.
arch attribute to the <xi:include> tag in User_Guide.xml, not to the <chapter> tag in Installation_and_configuration-PPC.xml.
xrefs and the arch attribute
<xref> points to content not included in the build due to the arch attribute, the build will fail. For example, with arch: x86 set in the publican.cfg file, $ publican build --formats=pdf --langs=en-US will fail if the book has the tag <xref linkend="Itanium_installation"> pointing to <section id="Itanium_installation" arch="IA64">.

conditionRoot nodes and conditional tagging
Installation_and_configuration_on_Fedora.xml contains a single chapter:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?> <!DOCTYPE chapter PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd" [ ]> <chapter id="chap-Installation_and_configuration_on_Fedora" condition="Fedora"> <title>Installation and configuration on Fedora</title> [text of chapter] </chapter>
User_Guide.xml with an <xi:include> tag, the document will not build with $ condition: Ubuntu set in the publican.cfg file.
<xi:include> tag in User_Guide.xml, not to the <chapter> tag in Installation_and_configuration_on_Fedora.xml.
xrefs and conditional tagging
<xref> points to content not included in the build due to conditional tagging, the build will fail. For example, with $ condition: upstream set in the publican.cfg file, $ publican build --formats=pdf --langs=en-US will fail if the book has the tag <xref linkend="betasection"> pointing to <section id="betasection" condition="beta">.
confidential1, Publican adds the text specified by the confidential_text parameter (by default, CONFIDENTIAL) to the foot of each HTML page and the head of every page in a PDF document. The default value is 0 (no header or footer).
confidential_textconfidential parameter is set to 1. The default text is CONFIDENTIAL.

footergenerate_section_toc_level0, Publican will generate tables of contents at the start of the document and in parts, chapters, and appendixes, but not in sections. If (for example) the value is set to 1, tables of contents also appear in each "level 1" section, such as sections 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, and 2.2. If set to 2, tables of contents also appear in "level 2" sections, such as sections 1.1.1, 1.1.2, and 1.2.1.
Example D.2. Setting the section depth at which tables of contents appear
ignored_translationses-ES,it-IT. If you build or package a book for a language filtered by this parameter, Publican ignores any translations that exist for this language, and builds or packages the book in the language of the original XML instead. Refer to Section 4.6, “Preparing a document for translation”, and to Appendix G, Language codes.
img_dirimages)
info_filelicensemax_image_widthImportant — 444 pixels is the maximum safe width
max_image_width parameter if your images contain important information. Images wider than 444 pixels presented at their full size might lead to poorly presented HTML and to PDF output that it is unusable because the images have run off the page and are incomplete.
mainfile<article>, <book>, or <set>, and the name of the corresponding .ent file that contains the document's entities. For example, if you set mainfile: master, Publican looks for the root XML node in master.xml and the document entities in master.ent.
mainfile is not set, Publican looks for the root XML node in a file that matches the <title> of the document set in the Article_Info.xml, Book_Info.xml, or Set_Info.xml file, and looks for the document entities in a file with a corresponding name.
menu_category.menu file) in which a document should appear when installed from a desktop RPM package. Refer to Section 4.8.1.3, “Desktop menu entries for documents”.

Region subtags
Other language codes
@ symbol to separate elements — for example, en_GB or sr_RS@latin) do not comply with the XML standard and therefore do not work with Publican.
language-script-region-variantx- and do not need to be registered. Private-use subtags aside, a subtag is valid if it appears in the registry of subtags maintained by the IETF through the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA).[7] Although Publican will accept any language tag that is valid under the rules presented in BCP 47, it is designed around the assumption that language tags for documents will most usually take the form language-regionzh (Chinese), hi (Hindi), es (Spanish), and en (English). Where no two-letter code exists in ISO 639-1, the language subtag is usually a three-letter code identical with the codes specified in ISO 639-2,[9] for example, bal (Balochi), apk (Kiowa Apache), and tpi (Tok Pisin). Finally, a small number of language subtags appear in the IANA registry that have no ISO 639-1 or ISO 639-2 equivalent, such as subtags for the constructed languages qya (Quenya) and tlh (Klingon), and for the occult language i-enochian (Enochian). This last example also illustrates a small number of language subtags grandfathered into the registry that do not match the two-letter or three-letter pattern of codes derived from the ISO 639 standards.
Extended language subtags
yue represents Cantonese, but this subtag must always be used with the language subtag associated with it (Chinese), thus: zh-yue. The IETF does not yet recognize RFC 5646 as "Best Common Practice", nor are these subtags part of the XML standard yet.
sr-Latn represents Serbian written with the Latin alphabet and sr-Cyrl represents Serbian written with the Cyrillic alphabet; az-Arab represents Azerbaijani written in Arabic script and az-Cyrl represents Azerbaijani written with the Cyrillic alphabet. Conversely, French should not be represented as fr-Latn, because French is not commonly written in any script other than the Latin alphabet anywhere in the world.
AT (Austria), TZ (Tanzania), and VE (Venezuela). The three-digit region subtags are based on those in UN M.49, [13] for example, 015 (Northern Africa), 061 (Polynesia), and 419 (Latin America and the Caribbean).
nedis denotes Nadiza (also known as Natisone), a dialect of Slovenian. This tag must be used in conjunction with the language subtag for Slovenian, thus: sl-nedis. In September 2009, the IETF issued a Request for Comments (RFC) that (amongst other things) proposes that dialects be represented by language extension subtags attached to language subtags.[14]
fr-1606nicot (French as documented by Jean Nicot in 1606), de-1901 (German spelling codified by the 2nd Orthographic Conference in 1901) and be-1959acad (Belarusian as codified by the Orthography Commission in 1959).
zh-Latn-wadegile is Chinese written in the Latin alphabet, according to the transliteration system developed by Thomas Wade and Herbert Giles; ja-Latn-hepburn is Japanese written in the Latin alphabet using the transliteration system of James Curtis Hepburn.
