<p>Hi William,</p>
<p>Indeed you can use mediawikis "collections" to compile books
composed of multiple articles.</p>
<p>There is a command line option called "book mode" that you will
see when calling mediawiki2latex without parameters. The graphical
users interfaces of mediawiki2latex don't support that. You have
to run it form the command line.<br>
</p>
<p>Yours Dirk<br>

<p>Hi William,</p>
<p>sorry the information about miktex on the mediawiki2latex
website is outdated. The point is that the needed fonts
are not installed on a default miktex installation and a
custom installation of miktex used to ship with
mediawiki2latex including the fonts in question. <br>
</p>
<p>If you want to compile on Windows you should follow the
installation instructions for Windows given on the
mediawiki2latex website. After that you can compile the
sources created be mediawiki2latex inside the Ubuntu app
using the xelatex command in this app.<br>
</p>
Yours Dirk<br>
