It +is a Java application that reads a formatting object tree conforming +to the XSL 1.1 Recommendation (05 December 2006) and then turns it +into a PDF document, certain other output formats or allows you to +preview it directly on screen. + +Output formats currently supported include PDF, PS, PCL, AFP, XML +(area tree representation), Print, AWT and PNG, and to a lesser extent, +RTF and TXT. The primary output target is PDF. + +The goals of the Apache FOP project are to deliver an XSL-FO to PDF +formatter that is compliant to at least the Basic conformance level +described in the W3C Recommendation from 05 December 2006, and that +complies with the November 2001 Portable Document Format Specification +(Version 1.4) from Adobe Systems. + +This is the old fop 2.3 for the incredibly ancient jdk 6 (including +openjdk6). If you are running jdk 7 or newer, you will need fop, also +available on SBo. + +Also note that fop and fop-legacy cannot coexist on the same computer. + +jai and jai-imageio are optional but recommended dependencies. |
