Re: XML to PDF using XSL FO

Cheers,
Wendell

Hi:

I am trying to generate a PDF from XML using XSL FO.
Bascially the PDF file should contain original XML as it as with all the
elements.

I used the following stylesheet, but it fails while generating PDF saying
that unexpected element (my root node from the original xml) is found.

<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
  <xsl:output method="xml" encoding="UTF-16"/>

  <xsl:template match="/">
   <fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format">
    <fo:layout-master-set>
      <fo:simple-page-master master-name="my-page">
         <fo:region-body margin="1in" />
      </fo:simple-page-master>
    </fo:layout-master-set>

    <fo:page-sequence master-reference="my-page">
      <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
        <fo:block><xsl:copy-of select="." /></fo:block>
      </fo:flow>
   </fo:page-sequence>
  </fo:root>

</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
