NAME
refdbjade - transform SGML and XML documents containing RefDB bibliographies
SYNOPSIS
refdbjade [-h] [-I name] [-j jade-args] [-p prefix] [-s stylesheet] [-t format] [-v variable[=name]] file
DESCRIPTION
refdbjade uses the stylesheet driver file that you created with runbib(1) and feeds it to Jade/OpenJade to transform your DocBook SGML or XML document to one of the supported output formats. 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.

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
