What if you use the 'xelatex' command instead of 'xetex'?<div><br><div><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/1/7 Chris Jones <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:cjns1989@gmail.com">cjns1989@gmail.com</a>></span><br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">I have been using xetex for a few months as part of the asciidoc/a2x<br>
tool chain. The tool chain invokes dblatex to generate pdf's from xml<br>
Docbook. Per its files, dblatex uses xetex as its 'backend driver'.<br>
<br>
This gives very good results, especially with multi-byte content in a<br>
UTF-8 encoding.<br>
<br>
I noticed that there was a 'xetex' command on this GNU/linux system,<br>
that invokes an ELF executable located in /usr/bin/.<br>
<br>
I tried the following against some latex documents that compile without<br>
errors when I use the 'latex' command:<br>
<br>
| $ xetex sample.tex<br>
<br>
As far as I can tell some TeX markup is not recognized, but after<br>
hitting a few <Enter> in succession, a valid sample.pdf is generated,<br>
containing a mix of the original text interspersed with my unrecognized<br>
TeX markup.<br>
<br>
Is there a quick start document anywhere that might help me get this to<br>
work in a GNU/linux context, or am I altogether barking the wrong tree?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
