Summary


In this chapter you have seen some powerful uses of XSL-FO. The capability to quickly produce printer friendly documents from an XML source is extremely attractive. Although this chapter has provided a full working example, many other applications of this technology exist and you are encouraged to explore these.

One of the main benefits of XSL-FO that I have moved to the top of my list is the low cost of deployment. For example, a Web server requires only an XML-FO processor, to produce high-quality documents. No need for licensing or for other production and delivery applications such as Microsoft Reporting Services, Crystal Reports or Cognos.
