Apache FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) is a print formatter
|
|
driven by XSL formatting objects (XSL-FO) and an output independent
|
|
formatter. It is a Java application that reads a formatting object
|
|
(FO) tree and renders the resulting pages to a specified output.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
Conformance to the XML 1.0 and 1.1 Recommendations, XSLT 1.0 and 2.0
|
|
Recommendations and the XML Namespaces Recommendation is understood.
|
|
Other relevant documents, such as the XPath and XLink Working Drafts,
|
|
are referenced as necessary. The FOP Project will attempt to use the
|
|
latest version of evolving specifications.
|
|
|
|
The original SB script required apache-maven, which needed to download
|
|
over 200 prebuild .jar files. This script now simply repackages the
|
|
binary package to avoid all this excessive downloading from within the
|
|
script.
