Okay then:
The Fop distrib comes as follows:
Fop-0.20.2/
|-- build
| `-- fop.jar
|-- conf
|-- docs
|-- fop.bat ***
|-- fop.sh ***
|-- hyph
`-- lib
|-- avalon-framework-4.0.jar
|-- batik.jar
|-- jimi-1.0.jar
|-- jimi-License.txt
|-- logkit-1.0b4.jar
|-- xalan-2.0.0.jar
|-- xalanj1compat.jar
`-- xerces-1.2.3.jar
To run Fop, two options:
* run fop.bat or fop.sh under a command prompt (the former under Window$,
the latter under your favorite UNIX). With no arguments it gives some help.
* run 'java org.apache.fop.apps.Fop' with all the above jar-files in your
classpath. Gives some help about command-line arguments, too.
Since fop includes Xalan, it can do both of the following:
XSLT Render
My.xml ---> My.fo -----> My.pdf
(replace PDF by whatever format you like, e.g. Plain text, PostScript,
PCL,...)
Hoping this helps,
