Hi Peter,
I tentatively suggested using XSLT to generate RTF a little while ago,
but I had no idea whether it was feasible. The main question would seem
to be: is RTF a text-only format or a binary format? Can anyone answer
that one for us?
AFAIK, everything in RTF can be expressed with
Bertrand,
Thanks for clarifying that. The feasibility of an XSLT transform would
be greatly influenced by the complexity of the mappings of properties
into RTF structures. If the inheritance model of XSLFO had no ready
parallel in RTF, that set of transformations would be a nightmare, I

Rendering RTF from the FOP area tree will produce a document edited without
template (.dot).
RTF is a revisable format - not a formatted document format. XSL:FO is an
extensive formatting language without any kind document elements (like
Adobe's e-Book), macros or stylesheets in the original
