Russian openSUSE community would like to translate Novell documentation stored at http://www.novell.com/documentation/opensuse102. Here is the project site: http://svn.team.org.ru:8000/trac
Thanks a lot for your translation effort!
We've already done a KDE Quick Start translation (as test), but experienced some problems with building pdf.
First, the customization layer included in susedoc works currently for XEP only, not FOP. That's a pity, but when my time permits I will make it more compatible with FOP.
[...] Building using xep went almost smoothly but xep is unacceptable due to license issues.
Yeah, that's pity. Did you know that RenderX offers also a Personal edition? As far as I know, it contains a stamp on each page and it's free for noncommercial personal use. http://www.renderx.net/Content/download/getbuy.cgi (Use Personal, *not* Trial) This might not solve the licensing issue but be useful for the time being until our stylesheets are ready for FOP.
Fop couldn't find necessary fonts: [ERROR] unknown font ZapfDingbats,italic,normal so defaulted font to any [ERROR] unknown font sansserif,normal,bold so defaulted font to any
It's mainly a (font) configuration issue from XEP.
Complete log: http://svn.team.org.ru:8000/trac/browser/test/build.log (some other annoying errors there).
The errors come from unsupported attributes in FOP. There is one issue that is related to our stylesheets: At the moment we don't support Russian localization but we will include it in the near future. If you want, you can translate the English text under /usr/share/susedoc/xslt/common/l10n/en.xml and send it directly to me. I can include it in the next update of susedoc. At least this error will disappear. :)
Finally, I want to ask about legality of such stuff. Doesn't it violate in any way licences if we leave all the copyrights and trademarks in our translations?
Andreas covered that already. :) Hope that helps, Tom -- Thomas Schraitle ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX GmbH >o) Documentation Specialist Maxfeldstrasse 5 /\\ 90409 Nuernberg _\_v http://en.opensuse.org/Documentation_Team --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-doc+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-doc+help@opensuse.org
