I completely agree with the last sentence in your email. When I talk about "mis-spending" time, I am referring to discussions about the process of creating a valid XSLFO file. However, that is just my opinion. Someone else made the decision to include the XML via XSLT to XSLFO process in FOP, so we

Eric, That thought had crossed my mind, but we take a random amount of formatted text from a CMS and pass it into FOP using a template, the output however was doing the cover page as page 1 rather than the inside of the cover, the answer I got was what I was looking for, I had been looking at the

I agree that discussion was petty. If someone thought the question was off topic they are welcome to respond with links to point you somewhere you might get better answers or ignore the question. While I haven't checked what other XSLFO processors exist, it seems the XSLT and XSLFO specifications

XSLFO is what you get when you combine XSLT with XML. XSLFO is an extension of XSLT and includes XSLT commands. XSLFO is as unrelated to FOP as XSLT when you're talking about it's creation for expected output. If you want only FOP related questions they should be about XSLFO commands and only as fa

Hi, as you said, XSL is separated in 2 things: - XML transformation (namespace http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform) - Formating objects (namespace http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format) using the same name for this 2 separate things is quite unclear, so in FOP lists we speak about either XSLT (abo
