just managed to download and build the development version of fop. I want to
create a rtf file from xml+xsl. Is there a possibillity to do something like
that: ./fop.sh -xml xmlfile.xml -xsl xslfile.xsl -rtf rtfoutputfile.rtf or do
i have to render the fo file with a standalone xslt preprocessor and then try
the following ./fop.sh -fo fofile.fo -rtf rtffile.rtf?
greetings, johannes.
I'd thought there was some sort of 'extension' to FOP which did this (a la TiffRenderer[1]). Unfortunately, I was wrong. The resource I'd seen actually converts RTF into XSL-FO[2]. The FOP web site does have info on FOP Output Target=RTF [3], but unfortunately, it's a dead end:
"RTF
This is currently not integrated with FOP but it will soon. This will create an rtf (rich text format) document that will attempt to contain as much information from the fo document as possible."
If any of the fop-devs knows more about getting FOP to output to RTF, it would be great to update the web site to make the above actually contain useful information. I checked CVS for the FOP Output Target page (from whence the above quote was taken), but couldn't find any information on the subject. The RTF-related info appears to have either been entered into the FOP Output Targets page before it was brought into CVS, or it wasn't well-documented.
Looking forward to resolving this so the web site can be udpated.
