If so, it should be possible to use something like jade/pdfjadetex for your transformations. The FreeBSD doc project is an example of how this can be done. You might want to at least browse http://www.freebsd.org/docproj/sgml.html and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer/index.html (both contain quite a number of useful references). -- Peter N.
