Note that this will wreck all Java applications on the system which need a writable DOM implementation, because the read-only DOM implementation supplied with Saxon overrides the JRE implementation. Use with care.
Setting the system property javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory to Saxon's implementation should do the trick without global consequences: java -Djavax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory=\ com.icl.saxon.TransformerFactoryImpl org.apache.fop.appl.Fop ...
This is for Saxon 6.x, Saxon 7.x and 8.x use another class name.
(We could also have opted not to distribute *any* XML parser or XSLT engine, and leave it all up to the end-user, but this would needlessly complicate things --no more running FOP 'out-of-the-box' :-( )
It was necessary to distribute Xalan+Xerces in the Java 1.3 days. Now that nearly everybody who got past Java 1.1.8 should have upgraded to 1.4, we can change this.
