I preformed a little test .. I downloaded the 'en' CVS manual, translated preface.xml and some .ent files , then I rebuilt the manual with the 'many html' option (i did that localy ofcrz). Then i had to edit the preface html file and add dir="rtl" property to the <HTML> tag and changed the document encoding to iso-8859-8-i. The HTML looked fine but i know it's not the right way to build the hebrew manual - i should use docbook so that the files will be created that way automatically for the hebrew translation. How do I do that ? Help ? anyone ? Also, there are some parts that should stay 'left to right' - like the code examples. Jirka, what about the directory creation ? who can help me with that ?
