Wrong syntax. Try:
jade -t sgml -i html -d
/usr/share/sgml/docbook/stylesheet/dsssl/ldp/ldp.dsl#html
/usr/share/sgml/declaration/xml.dcl filename.xml
Also, is your top-level element "book" or "article"? I'd recommend
you use "article", although it's not a requirement:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN"
"http://docbook.org/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd" []>
<article>
<articleinfo>
