No, not at all. Our product simply does not work like this. Someone in your organization needs to develop an XSLT stylesheet which generates XSL-FO (a standard ``page description language'') out of your single source XML. The generated XSL-FO should of course faithfully implements all your corporate styles. Once you have the XSL-FO, you can automatically convert it to a variety of formats: * PDF, PostScript by using Apache FOP, RenderX XEP, Antenna House XSL Formatter, etc. * RTF, WordprocessingML, .docx (MS Word formats) or .odt (OpenOffice/LibreOffice format) by using our product: XMLmind XSL-FO Converter. Note that the current release of XMLmind XSL-FO Converter does not support adding named styles to the RTF, WordprocessingML, .docx or .odt it generates. For now, the files generated by our product exclusively use direct formatting.
