-> pdf???

Subject: Re: calling fop from java
I´m working in something like that.
I have an servlet filter that calls a JSP page that will return an xml file
with a set of pre-defined tags. This xml file will be transformed into a fo
stream with xalan using a xsl file with the fo definition of my tags. This
fo stream will be then rendered with fop. (I hope that the English is
correct...)
I'm sending the code for the filter, the xsl that I have and a xml example
for my tags. It´s is working, but the tags are still very limited because
I´m still in the begining of the project.
I´m also working in a wysiwyg tool to create the xsl file.
Hope that helps.

Use:
Driver driver = new Driver(InputStream in, OutputStream out);
driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);
driver.run();
where in is the inputStream to the fo file that you will render and
out is the outputstream where the pdf content will be write to.
The package is org.apache.fop.apps.
Hope that helps.
