What I need is a system that will allow, without too much pain, the user to produce output in multiple formats (print and HTML, mostly) from a single set of source files. I'm _almost_ happy with the LyX -> linuxdoc approach except that from what I can tell the linuxdoc DTD doesn't support the inclusion of images, which is a must for my application. I've begun to investigate the Docbook DTD, but the whole SGML thing is so huge... a bit overwhelming. I'd appreciate any suggestions and pointers that might point in a valid direction.
