Thanks for your post Joerg
My pipeline is
<map:match pattern="result.xml">
<map:generate type="xsp" src="xsp/result.xsp"/>
<map:transform src = "fo/tablepic66.xsl"/>
<map:serialize type="fo2pdf"/>
</map:match>
The funny thing is I copied the XML from IE6 into a text file, deleteted
the minus signs, set up a new pipeline as below and this works.
<map:match pattern="test2.pdf">
<map:generate src="fo/tradenew.xml"/>
<map:transform src = "fo/tablepic66.xsl"/>
<map:serialize type="fo2pdf"/>
</map:match>

Uh? What has the presentation in IE6 to do with the XML itself? IE only
transforms the XML it gets to the HTML with the minus signs you see when
viewing XML in IE. If you see such a page without any error message from
IE,
it's correct XML.
In which way did you try to get PDF? You must transform your XML into
XSL
FO, which can then be serialized to PDF. How does your pipeline look
like?
