Apache FOP is easily extensible and allows you to add new output formats to enhance FOP's functionality. There's a number of output formats | |||
which are on our wish list. We're looking for volunteers to help us implement them. | |||

The renderer has already been built and is in the process of being brought into the Apache FOP codebase. | |||
