## Overview

`html2db.xsl` converts an XHTML source document into a Docbook output document. It provides features for customizing the generation of the output, so that the output can be tuned by annotating the source, rather than hand-editing the output. This makes it useful in a processing pipeline where the source documents are maintained in HTML, although it can be used as a one-time conversion tool too.

This document is an example of `html2db.xsl` used in conjunction with the Docbook XSL stylesheets. The source file is an XHTML file with some embedded Docbook elements and processing instructions. `html2db.xsl` compiles it into a Docbook document, which can be used to generate this output file (which includes a Table of Contents), a chunked HTML file, a PDF, or other formats.
