[docbook-apps] plea for help with index generation

[Mike Haberman <mikeh at ncsa dot uiuc dot edu>]

Hello All,

   I am converting a document from page maker to docbook.  I am only
   3 weeks old to all this -- but I have exhausted google.

   I need help with index generation for pdf.  I am using
   docbook 4.2 with dsssl (1.78).

   After my command pipeline, my index entries have ?? for the page
   references.

   Here's my pipeline:

      1. collateindex.pl -N -o index.sgml
      2. openjade -t sgml -d
$HOME/docbook/docbook-dsssl-1.78/html/docbook.dsl -V html-index book.sgm
      3. collateindex.pl -o index.sgml HTML.index
      4. openjade -t tex -V tex-backend -d book.dsl book.sgm
      5. pdfjadetex book.tex


      When I run step 5.  I get a lot these errors:
      ! pdfTeX warning (dest): name{1743} has been referenced but does not
exist, replaced by a fixed one

      I've tried to run step 4 (and step 5) a bunch of times-- but no help.
      Table of contents references are fine.

      I am willing to try another command pipeline, but I need to
      stick with dsssl and I need pdf for the final output.


      Thanks so much.  I appreciate any help that others can lend.
