Why would ldp.dsl not work for you?
1. install/copy/symlink ldp.dsl into <path_to_db_dsssl>/html/
2. openjade -t sgml -i html -d <path_to_db_dsssl>/html/ldp.dsl#html ...

I advise against changing the base DocBook styles. Create
your own derivative dsssl ss which overrides the default behavior.
It's much easier to maintain and make changes, plus you can update
the base DocBook styles and not have to worry about (re-)integrating
your changes.
Examine ldp.dsl for the full set of style changes the ldp uses:
