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
RTF support is much more robust in the development branch, thanks mostly to
the jfor crew, led by Bertrand Delecretaz, and Peter Herweg's efforts to
integrate it. However, since releases are not being made from the
development branch yet, users will have to download and build it themselves,
at their own risk.
D'oh! I couldn't recall the title jfor... Thanks!
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.
The web site, of course, refers to the released versions, and is accurate.
OK.
WRT the source file, I don't follow. I can see the content here:
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/xml-fop/src/documentation/content/ xdocs/ou
tput.xml?rev=1.16&only_with_tag=MAIN&view=markup
at line 240.

I see/saw the content as well. What I don't see is any reference to who or when the RTF information was put into the output.xml file. My hope was that information RE: who/when RTF info was put into the file would help determine who to ask for help on outputting to RTF. Fortunately, you've provided information about who might be able to respond to RTF questions (Bertrand Delecretaz and Peter Herweg).
FWIW, my POST was mainly to get other fop-devs (like yourself) to pipe in about where to find help on FOP's RTF output capabilities and also to improve the site's RTF details. For example, it might be good to indicate on the FOP Output page that the RTF capabilities are in the DEV version, as well as where to look for more info on the subject (http://xml.apache.org/fop/dev/ & FOP Resources--after adding http://www.jfor.org/ to the FOP Resources page :-)).
On a related note, I found the FOP site's RTF I couldn't find before[1] (it was 'hidden' on the /fop/dev side). Also, I should've looked at the Team page[2] for more RTF info.
Hope this helps!
