FW: DOCBOOK-APPS: Problem with MediaObject
Title: Problem with MediaObject

I just 
try again :-) ...

Hi, 
I'm quite new to docbook. Well I 
have trouble using MediaObject including ImageObjects. 
Processing this with docbook2html works fine, but neither docbook2pdf nor 
docbook2ps nor docbook2tex produces any picture output! Without the caption I 
don't even get a tex output (due to an empty page I suppose) ...

Using use InlineGraphic in conjunction with picture.ps works 
fine for docbook2html, docbook2tex and docbook2ps but results in an error for 
docbook2pdf (using picture.png or picture.jpg instead result in a fine pdf 
document).

'Cause at least one of the picture formats in the MediaObject 
works using it as InlineGraphic I think I should get also a good result with 
MediaObject (i.e. it seems not to be a problem of jade).

Is it a bug or am I missing something? 

Here is my sample docbook: 

<?xml version="1.0"?> 
<!DOCTYPE 
mediaobject PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN" 

        "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd"> 

<mediaobject> 
<imageobject> 
<imagedata 
fileref="picture.ps"></imagedata> 
</imageobject> 
<imageobject> 

<imagedata 
fileref="picture.png"></imagedata> 
</imageobject> 
<imageobject> 

<imagedata 
fileref="picture.jpg"></imagedata> 
</imageobject>
