I'm chiming in late; you've probably already made your decision.
I have been doing lots of work generating fo through fop, and also XEP,
with data extracted from a database. I always use xsl stylesheets, but
I do the entire process internally in java, except for the FOP run
itself. There are se
installing ImageMagic but had a easier way using FOP.

I recommend you don't build XSL:FO through Java code directly. Produce a
simple XML format with just the data in it. Use a XSLT stylesheet
afterward

I guess it is better to build them as XML documents and use xsl:fo to transform
them to FO documents. It is much easier. You could use the XML to render HTML,
RTF or any other format. FOP programming is also much easier, as you shift all
the java programming burden of building the FO document to
