Cannot transform DocBook topic to PDF?

For <oXygen/> XML Editor 21.1, build 2019120214.
I receive errors when trying to generate a one-page DocBook 5.1 topic as PDF.
I've only just begun exploring DocBook. So the problem may simply be my inexperience.
The Messages tab contains the following:
Is the absence of topic an accidental omission? Seems to this newbie that one should be able to transform a DocBook 5.1 topic into PDF?
Cheers & thanks in advance,
