I believe you are referring to the XSLT stylesheets used with the
convenience function of FOP to support XML to XSL-FO transformation as a
pre-processing step.

Formally, this step is incidental to the functionality of FOP, whose only
real task it transform XSL-FO documents into an output format.

Since your concern is solely related to this pre-processing step, there
isn't much documentation or other support with FOP for this task.

Indeed, it is my opinion that this preprocessing step functionality should
be removed from FOP entirely, forcing users to solely rely on external
tools to create XSL-FO input for FOP.
