I note that fop can generate printable PostScript (the -ps flag in the command line version).
My requirment is to generate EPSF; I am making "fragments" for makeup into a large page by an external (interactive) application. The postscript generated is most definitely NOT epsf, or even close. In particular there *IS* is a call to a global device operator - setpagedevice. q1) are there any plans to generate EPSF? I suspect I know enough to use perl (or similar) to transform the present PostScript into EPSF, but I'd rather not... An epsf file, to be useful in an interactive environment needs a rendered preview. Given that fop can also generate a number of raster formats, I was hoping to use this facility to generate EPSF and a raster preview from the same xsl/data. However, given some helpful advice from Andreas, it appears that choice of renderer influences layout decisions. q2) Is it possible to (somehow) use the same layout for two renderers? in my particular circumstances induividual character appearance is a moderately low priority; whiat I do require is that line wrapping and general layout is the same between the EPSF and the preview. If the AT file specified the exact placement of each character my purpose would be well served.
