I've made some progress with the RST but I'm still having issues.  Some of the PG extensions don't seem to be recognized.  For instance:

System Message: ERROR/3 (<string>, line 21)

Unknown directive type "byline".

.. byline::

   BY PURNENDU NARAYANA SINHA, M. A., B. L.
The image directive was working fine before but putting "byline" in messes it up:

System Message: ERROR/3 (<string>, line 25)

Error in "image" directive: no content permitted.

.. image:: images/bhagaf004.jpg

It doesn't seem to like vspace either:

System Message: ERROR/3 (<string>, line 34)
Error in "vspace" directive: no content permitted.


.. vspace:: pb

You can see all the problems here:
