Description-en: XML formatter driven by XSL Formatting Objects (XSL-FO.) - app
FOP is a Java application that reads a formatting object tree and then
turns it into a wide variety of output presentations (including AFP,
PCL, PDF, PNG, PostScript, RTF, TIFF, and plain text), or displays
the result on-screen.
.
The formatting object tree can be in the form of an XML document
(output by an XSLT engine like xalan) or can be passed in memory as a
DOM Document or (in the case of xalan) SAX events.
.
This package contains the fop command line tool
