Finn, The FObj.bind() method throws a SAXParseException if this method hasn't been overridden in the FObj subclass. I'm unsure why a subclass override is required (as the javadoc comment for this method indicates)--wouldn't it be OK if we just have an empty method here without the exception (e.g. if you have no properties of concern for a particular fo)? That would seem to be preferable.
I mention this because I'm currently trying to run our pdfoutline.fo example, and this exception is being called because no bind() method has been implemented yet in the fox:bookmarks element. Thanks, Glen
