FYI I have updated the Windows Installer to 1.4

https://fedorahosted.org/releases/p/u/publican/Publican-Installer-1.4.exe

There are a couple of changes to the way the Installer works for 1.4:

1: Installer detects old version installed and offers to uninstall it
2: FOP has been added to the list of Tools to install
3: Tools are now downloaded directly, not embedded in the Installer

I tested building the Users Guide as a PDF, en-US only, and it seemed to
work OK. You still need to install a Java JRE/JDK separately, but it can
be installed pre or post Publican install. You get a "java is an unknown
command" error if Java isn't installed.

Cheers, Jeff.
