Configuring AHFormatter (V4.3 and V5.1) from Antenna House for Ubuntu 9.10

The latest version of Antenna House Formatter can be found at:
http://www.antennahouse.com/product/ahf50/download.htm
If you’re working under Linux/Ubuntu, you can use Alien to convert the .rpm package to Debian/Ubuntu .deb format.
Use this command to install Alien:

1
apt-get install alien

After converting the .rpm package to .deb using Alien, and installing the AHFormatter V4.3 or V5.1 (by default in /usr), some errors might occure at run time:

1
./run.sh: 32: @@HOME@@/bin/XSLCmd: not found

What you have to do is to edit the “run.sh” from the installation folder of AHFormatter (let’s say /usr/AHFormatterV51/run.sh) and replace the line:

1
AHF51_HOME="@@HOME@@"

with the folder where you installed the Formatter. Let’s say:

1
AHF51_HOME="/usr/AHFormatterV51"

The second replacement is in the “font-config.xml” file from the “etc” folder of AHFormatter (let’s say /usr/AHFormatterV51/etc/font-config.xml) at line:

1
font-folder path="@@HOME@@/fonts"

with the folder where you installed the Formatter:

1
font-folder path="/usr/AHFormatterV51/fonts"

Now you can enjoy the AHFormatter!:)
