I know this feeling very well... That was my situation about one and a
half years ago.

I remember reading the PDF for the BAG and asking myself "How did he do
that? How on earth did he do that?". It took me months to find out. It's
everything there, nobody hides the information, but to find it you have
to dig deeply in mailing lists and all that stuff.

Lumvr, want a simple answer? Use my scripts.
There is only one problem with my scripts for the moment: they are not
available. I am still writing the documentation for them. Check in 2-6
weeks from now on my homepage http://www.karakas-online.de under "My
work" -> "Linux". I don't want to put some scripts without explaining
what they do. It will all be GPLed. But please give me the time.
When it is ready and you will read it, then you will understand what I
mean. There are some *very* tricky things you have to do to get
everything right with jade, pdfjadetex & Co. But once you use a script,
you will forget them all soon ;-)
