I'm searching for a FO-template, an example or something else for scientific texts. Is there something like that available?
Did you already try Google? Other than that: "scientific texts" is a wide area. I guess this should mean "contains lots of mathematical formulas", "contains lots of diagrams" or both. In the first case you'd probably advised to learn TeX/LATeX; using formulas with FO requires you to learn and type MathML *and* installing a MathML extension for your favorite FO processor. In the second case, using SVG embedded in some XML will probably work for you. In the third case, prepare to cope with some frustration regardless of the approach you use to attack your problem (although using illustrations with TeX is now easier than it used to be). Well, the canonical example for high level document-like XML is DocBook, although it is more geared towards software documentation than to scientific texts. Check out the EBNF extension for how to get your specific high-level stuff through the transformation (see http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/xhtml/ebnf.xsl for details). There is a fairly large number of style sheets out there which generates SVG for various diagrams from reasonably readable source XML.
