[Brian Sidebotham <brian.sidebotham@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm nearly ready for a pull request. I've just committed changes to my
repo so that PDF and HTML can be built on Windows and Linux.

Both dblatex and FOP are supported for PDF generation on Linux and
Windows, however I cannot get the dblatex PDF build to complete on
Windows because of a problem with the xlstproc I'm using. Perhaps
someone will have better luck than me. Because of that, I've noted in
cmake-readme.adoc in my repo that only FOP is suppored under Windows.

CMake just does feature checking, not platform checking, so you can
give anything that's supported a go. Getting the full dblatex tool
chain seutp on Windows is a bit of a pain!

Best Regards,

Brian.
