Yep I would say when I "click" (assuming GUI) the "publish to PDF" button,
Adobe Reader will display a "cool" looking document that looks good.

From my personal point of view, having a good looking presentation output is
a "killer feature". I think it would be great if we can have (probably
unofficial) DocBook stylesheets with, well... more design.

What about starting with more functional Free fo processors, first ? :-)

Thanks Stefan, I think you're right. I'm not sure about how comprehensive
FOP is though...

So there aren't other stylesheets?
