I'm sorry but I don't understand what you mean by ".fo template".

A ".fo" file is very rarely used a *template*. It's almost always an 
intermediate file which represents a *single*, *specific*, page layout.


Notice my words: *single*, *specific*; *template* implies that a ".fo" 
file could be used to create multiple page layouts.


In order to convert a ".fo" file to PDF, simply:

1) Make sure that you have a recent Java runtime (e.g Java 8+) installed 
on your computer.


2) Download and install Apache FOP. See 
https://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/2.3/


3) Run:

fop -fo XXX.fo -pdf XXX.pdf

See https://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/2.3/running.html

Please note that your question is not related AT ALL to our product 
"XMLmind XSL-FO Converter", http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/


Your question seems to be related to

1) XSL. May be it's about "2.3 Literal Result Element as Stylesheet" -- 
https://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xslt-19991116#result-element-stylesheet 
-- a rarely used XSLT feature.


2) DocBook. May be you should post your question to the public mailing 
list: docb...@lists.oasis-open.org

[XFC] .fo Template usage

[HOCHHUTH Björn Enders]

Good day,

I have a .fo template as a template stylesheet to convert a docBook file to PDF.
I read a lot of documentation now but I didn´t find a solution. In one users 
guide I read FO is supported but there is no description how to use a FO file 
as a conversation template.
Can I transform FO file to XSL? Thanks a lot!

Beste Grüße / Best Regards
