Hi, HTML does not nearly have the kind of formatting necessary for proper formatting for paper that to me the use of such a style sheet (a tranfsormation to HTML) sounds not very useful. Most HTML formatting does not match the formatting tags used in fo (for example tables) so the result of the transformation (such as an HTML table or headings) will not be recognised bij fop.
If you would like to include standard style properties or even templates that you want to share from one source you can include such a file in your XSL file that you use for a translation to fo. A css kind-of style that can be used for both a tranformation to HTML and to fo would be nice though.
