Thanks, Norm. Yes, I evaluated fop, xep, and ahf, and bought the Antenna House 
Formatter. My question now is between xsltproc, Saxon 6.5, and Saxon 10. All 
three are working for me, and I don't have a reason to prefer one to the 
others. Is there one?

That’s going to depend on how complicated your output is. The commercial
processors like AntennaHouse offer both better and more complete support
for the FO specification. They also offer extensions for things that
never got standardized.

                                        Be seeing you,
