hello jon,

u wanna take a look at the xsl:fo as u will use this to generate
instructions that can then be translated to pdf using a FOP processor
http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect3.html

take a looksee at the FOP stuff at apache
http://xml.apache.org/fop/index.html

for the simple things its fairly easy once u have set up FOP processor, but
learning xsl:fo is definately an investment.

good luck, jim fuller
