Hi all,

I am currently struggling with the documentation for one of my apps and its translation. I once used a KDE DTD with Docbook but it is getting a hassle, at least for non-KDE apps. Does somebody know what DTD/CAT/XSL I should use in order to easily translate the Docbook master in OmegaT and get clean HTML/PDF output like the OmegaT manual at https://omegat.sourceforge.io/manual-latest/fr/chapter.about.OmegaT.html ?

…that your question relates more to development than to usage. You should better join the developers list and/or the localization list at Sourceforge [1], there you'll get a quicker answer.

It's reasonably (for a developer) documented in a readme in the /doc_src folder of OmegaT:
https://sourceforge.net/p/omegat/svn/HEAD/tree/trunk/doc_src/

If you have further questions, I recommend following esperantisto's advice.
