FOP readme
What is FOP?
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) SAX events.
FOP is part of Apache's XML project. The homepage of FOP is
http:/xml.apache.org/fop
HTML-Documentation can be found in the subdirectory /docs.
Compilation of Fop is started by executing build. It requires
Xerces-J, Xalan and bsf.jar (comes with Xalan) in your classpath.
Fop builds successfully with Xerces 1.1.2 and Xalan 1.1, earlier versions
may prove problematic, if they don't support the final version of SAX 2.
You can find more details in build.xml or in the documentation under the
heading 'compiling'.
