Yes you will need to define the entities. Following is a more flexible way of
doing this.
<!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.4//EN"
"http://www.docbook.org/xml/4.4/docbookx.dtd" [
<!ENTITY % ext SYSTEM "myentities.ent">
%ext;
]>
Content of myentities.ent
<!ENTITY copyright SYSTEM 'copyright.xml'>
<!ENTITY corpauthor SYSTEM 'common/corpauthor.xml'>
<!ENTITY legalnotice-copyright SYSTEM 'common/legalnotice-copyright.xml'>
<!ENTITY legalnotice-warranty SYSTEM 'common/legalnotice-warranty.xml'>
<!ENTITY legalnotice-liability SYSTEM 'common/legalnotice-liability.xml'>
<!ENTITY pubdate SYSTEM 'common/pubdate.xml'>
<!ENTITY chapter_red SYSTEM 'red.xml'>
<!ENTITY chapter_blue SYSTEM 'blue.xml'>
...
<!ENTITY chapter_green SYSTEM 'green.xml'>
Hope this helps,
