Dblatex started as a DB2LaTeX clone. So, why this project? The purpose
|
||
|
is a bit different on these points:
|
||
|
|
||
|
(1) The project is end-user oriented, that is, it tries to hide as much
|
||
|
as possible the latex compiling stuff by providing a single clean
|
||
|
script to produce directly DVI, PostScript and PDF output.
|
||
|
|
||
|
(2) The actual output rendering is done not only by the XSL stylesheets
|
||
|
transformation, but also by a dedicated LaTeX package. The purpose is
|
||
|
to allow a deep LaTeX customisation without changing the XSL
|
||
|
stylesheets.
|
||
|
|
||
|
(3) Post-processing is done by Python, to make publication faster,
|
||
|
convert the images if needed, and do the whole compilation.
