Re: Convert xml to PDF

Hey, 

FO is I think in the draft stage and I don't know how
many bugs I am going to face with that.

Is there any way to write a utility to write PDF
directly from the XML???

Can anyone give me the strong points to use FOs?
Why cannot I generate PDF directly from xml and xsl
combination what are the issues?
I do not need Image in output PDF.

Please guide.


Thanks
Deep
