You should be able to include the translets.jar as part of your application. In your application, call the setAttribute method on your TransformerFactory to specify that you want to load the precompiled stylesheet from your class path along with the package name. (See [1] for the definitions of these attributes.) For example: TransformerFactory tf = TransformerFactory.newInstance(); try { tf.setAttribute("package-name", "com.centauri.xsltc"); tf.setAttribute("use-classpath", Boolean.TRUE); } catch (IllegalArgumentException iae) { // Couldn't set the attributes - let's see what happens } Transformer t = tf.newTransformer(new StreamSource("index.xsl")); I hope that helps.
