About the figures, did someone mention modifying the JPEGs from the free german translation some time back? [ http://home.vr-web.de/juergen.katins/ruby/buch/ ] Most of these are directly usable, and in the remainders the text can be changed in any paint program (though the quality does suffer somewhat), and I think you don't have to go about changing all the XML documents. (Some clever changes to convert.xsl and an extra XML document if you want the figure captions should suffice, I think.) It is a bit of a quick hack, and I'd like to have input from J�rgen Katins, before I give out any modified files. As for the page numbers/links, are you thinking: - display pagenumbers in HTML - links to each and every pagenumber - links to pagenumbers explicitly stated The last of these three I am planning to add to the norwegian translation, and I see that Katins have done so also. However, here I see less chance of avoiding going into the XML. Since Dave and Andy use the LaTeX as source to generate the XML, I'm not sure how to do this without the solution being fragile. Most of the page references can be reduced to chapter, section or sub[sub]section references. However, some point more or less "into the middle" of things, which is more difficult to make anchor names for, w/o going into the XML.
