I am currently evaluating JBoss/Seam. I am comfortable with the front end (user 
facing) portion of the system. What I cannot find out so far is how to generate 
XML documents that would go into our publishing chain.

Once our application constructs the database entries, I want to then produce a 
number of reports, each of which is generated from a DocBook-formatted file to 
eventually produce HTML, XHTML, XML, PDF, RTF and other documents. Other 
publishing chains including producing XML documents in various schemas.

While we can certainly have Java write out the requisite XML the old-fashioned 
way, I was hoping to be able to use the high-leverage capabilities of JSF/Seam 
to allow rapid development of new report formats. The other alternative I am 
exploring is generating raw XML from the database and XSLT to massage it into 
the desired format.

Does anybody have experience generating XML, more particularly DocBook, and 
sending it to a publishing chain? At least writing it to a file where it can be 
picked up and published.
