[docbook-apps] why does xsltproc create drafts from DocBook XML?


I've been trying to get DocBook XML to print.  I've abandoned the DSSSL
toolchain and try to get XSLT and FO working.  Now xsltproc generates a
.fo file without complaints, using the docbook.xsl from Norman Walsh.
Subsequently `fop` however balks at many things.  For one thing:


Error creating background image: Error creating FopImage object (Error
creating FopImage object
(http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/images/draft.png) :
org.apache.fop.image.JimiImage

Besides the fact that I am on-line and the image is reacheable (so it is
odd that fop apparently cannot do anything with it), I don't want a
"draft" watermark in my print in the first place.
How come that this comes out of xsltproc?  In NW's pagesetup.xsl there
are stanza's like:
	<xsl:if test="$draft.mode != 'no'">
that should prevent references to the $draft.watermark.image .
What do I do in DocBook to prevent this show-stopper?



For another thing, I get errors like:
[ERROR] property - "background-position-horizontal" is not implemented yet.
[ERROR] property - "background-position-vertical" is not implemented yet.
But maybe they go away if I get rid of any background images.



Finally (for now), `fop` breaks with:
[ERROR] Unknown enumerated value for property 'relative-align': baseline
[ERROR] Error in relative-align property value 'baseline':
org.apache.fop.fo.expr.PropertyException: No conversion defined

In my DocBook XML I never refer to "relative-align" or "baseline",
whatever they may be.  What can I do about that?

	Thanx,
