FOP reads in XML in a particular XML format defined in the XSL:FO spec.
We usually give these xml files the fo extension and call them fo files.

Some people take their XML and convert it into the alternative XML fo format
prior to feeding to FOP. Hopefully you know enough XSL/XSLT to convert your
XML into XSL:FO.
