The speed-freaks will say that taking a detour via a DOM or JDOM is suboptimal. Granted, directly generating SAX events may seem more difficult at first, but it's definitely faster as fewer objects are constructed and garbage collected. But given FOP's speed it probably doesn't matter much. On 25.

There's a nice way to manipulate XML Data with the JDOM API : http://www.jdom.org Starting from strings, you can easily create a JDOM tree object and then output it to a stream (and then transform your xsl-fo tree). You don't have to worry about special characters. You just have to care for the

No, AFAIK Digester is for the opposite direction: Parsing XML into objects. Have a look at the examples here: http://xml.apache.org/fop/embedding.html#examples They describe (step-by-step) how to generate SAX events from Java objects and use that approach with FOP. On 24.11.2003 23:42:05 Prabhat
