thanks for your reply. A question to clarify my understanding of how your tool 
works:
- use Docbook 1.77.x FO templates to create FOP from Docbook

XSL-FO, not FOP.




- use your FOP to WordML XSLT to create the Word file

Not quite. Our tool works as explained here:

http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/how_it_works.html

Simply in your case, the XSLT stylesheet which generates XSL-FO out of DocBook comes from the Docbook XSL Stylesheets 1.77.x opensource project.

No offense intended, but if you don't know what is the XSL technology, you are loosing your time with our product. You'd better look for another product based on a different technology.





If I want to get another title page for my documents I have to specify this 
title page in FOP and include it via the default docbook way for customizing. 
This is not ideal but will probably work out - can you recommend any visual FO 
editor?


No.




Another question: if I wanted to create word fields that link to document 
properties how could I accomplish that with your tool (e.g. in the custom title 
page: create a word field that shows the documents author)?


Our tool translates XSL-FO to a .docx file (among other formats). The feature you need (generate word *fields*) cannot be expressed using XSL-FO. Therefore our tool does not support it.
