Ah, now I'm starting to see where this is going. I think this something extremely difficult to do. To a certain degree it sounds like my ideas/plans for the XML Graphics project, namely to separate certain peripheral components (fonts, PDF lib, Graphics2D implementations etc.) from FOP so efforts

Victor, from the website I don't quite get the scope of the project. That might have to be made clearer. Anyway, I didn't want to talk about it just yet, because it's not ready, but recently I started writing a JAXP-like API for XSL-FO processors (I called in JAFOP for now). It basically
