Thanks Chris, This helped me sort out the problem straight away.... The xalan.bat will help me a lot in debugging...
But this is not going to show me anything too useful as I am populating Object straight to PDF... As the Object to PDF generation process, includes generating the XML and the FO syntax (at some point during the processing - I assume at least)... is there any way to get this information by switching on some sort of FOP debugging? That would be really useful.... (and will probably save me a lot of time!!)

However, this may not be the cause of the problem. Most likely cause is several occurrences of element incident in your source XML, resulting in several root elements. To determine where mistake is you should generate XSL-FO file by running xalan.bat (in FOP distribution) from command line. <snip/> Chris --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _____________________________________________________________________ This message has been checked for all known viruses by the MessageLabs Virus Control Centre.
