Here is the bit of my action that deals with the pdf creation. First I transform xml to fo using xsl (and Xalan). The result is written to an InputSteam, which is passed into FOP. The result from FOP is then written out the client and the content type is set to "application/pdf".

I appreciate that I have to have xsl:fo to transform the xml, but how best to render this using jsp??? Or do I need a servlet??? -----Original Message----- From: David WIlkinson [ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ] Sent: Thursday, 15 August 2002 5:57 PM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: RE: Help - xml to pdf using struts We had to address a similar issue of creating pdf's from xml and found that it can be done in a simple way using xsl:fo to transform the xml.

I now have to complete the reporting side. This basically consists of displaying xml output as HTML or PDF. I have the HTML side covered (I am using jakarta XTags) but how do I render an xml to fo transformation to pdf by using struts. I am aware of stxx but as far as I can see you have to override the actionservlet etc and this seems an overhead for what is a small part of the app. Can anyone please give some suggestions. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: < mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > For additional commands, e-mail: < mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: < mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > For additional commands, e-mail: < mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: < mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > For additional commands, e-mail: < mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: < mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > For additional commands, e-mail: < mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >
