I want to use the SGML DTD that's defined in the O'Reilly book "DocBook:
The Definitive Guide" for two reasons: (1) The book is an existance proof that
the DocBook 3.1 DTD can produce a nice book design, and (2) I have both
hardcopy and HTML documentation for that version.  

So, I installed the following RPMs on my RedHat 7.1 Linux system:

  docbook-dtd30-sgml-1.0-10
  docbook-dtd31-sgml-1.0-10
  docbook-style-dsssl-1.65-1
  docbook-utils-0.6-13
  jadetex-3.3-1
  perl-SGMLSpm-1.03ii-4
  sgml-common-0.5-5
  sgml-tools-1.0.9-9
  tetex-1.0.7-15
  tetex-afm-1.0.7-15
  tetex-doc-1.0.7-15
  tetex-dvilj-1.0.7-15
  tetex-dvips-1.0.7-15
  tetex-fonts-1.0.7-15
  tetex-latex-1.0.7-15
  tetex-xdvi-1.0.7-15

I've run through the installation notes in Chapter 2 of Norman Walsh's
"The Modular DocBook Stylesheets" (http://nwalsh.com/docbook/dsssl/doc/), 
and if I set

  SGML_CATALOG_FILES=/etc/sgml/catalog:/usr/share/sgml/openjade-1.3/catalog

I can run without errors

  jade -t rtf -d jtest.dsl jtest.sgm

and, after updating DOCTYPE in `test.sgm' to "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V3.1//EN", 

  nsgmls -sv test.sgm

But I cannot get

  jade -t rtf -d \
    /usr/share/sgml/docbook/dsssl-stylesheets-1.65/print/docbook.dsl \
    test.sgm

to run. I get lots of errors like

  jade:/usr/share/sgml/docbook/dsssl-stylesheets-1.65/print/../common/dbl1cs.ent:7:33:E: "283" is not a character number in the document character set

and later on

  jade:/usr/share/sgml/docbook/dsssl-stylesheets-1.65/print/../common/dbl1cs.dsl:358:34:E: general entity "ListofExamples" not defined and no default entity

What am I missing?

Thanks!
