This command is using the "xmlto" tool to convert an XML document into a PDF file.

  • "${pdf}" is a placeholder for the output PDF file name or path. In the actual command, you would replace "${pdf}" with the desired name or path for the generated PDF file.
  • "${document-xml}" is a placeholder for the input XML document name or path. In the actual command, you would replace "${document-xml}" with the name or path of the XML document you want to convert to PDF.

So, in summary, this command is instructing the "xmlto" tool to take an XML document specified by "${document-xml}" and convert it into a PDF file with the given name or path specified by "${pdf}".
