Yes, it is and it does :) It gave me an idea too: I changed the Windows 2000 shortcut that calls the executable (XSL_Utility.exe) so that "Target:" becomes: java -jar "path\to\XFC\installation\directory\xfc.jar", and "Start in:" becomes: "path\to\your\xml\document\directory" and although it's as slow as molasses, it does work happily from double-clicking the shortcut. The DOS box pops up and then a few seconds later the FO Converter pops up and I can convert the file without losing the graphics. Thank you for that - it makes life so much easier. :) ... > > otherwise).
