<title>What is FOP?</title>
- <p>FOP is the world's first print formatter driven by XSL
- formatting objects. It is a Java 1.1 application that reads a
- formatting object tree and then turns it into a PDF document.
- The formatting object tree, can be in the form of an XML
- document (output by an XSLT engine like XT or Xalan) or can be
- passed in memory as a DOM Document or (in the case of
- XT or Xalan) SAX events.
