I was also taken aback by what seems to be a plug for RenderX. FOP does all that I need, so I've never looked at RenderX, and this doesn't seem a like a logical forum in which to plug a commercial product.
Unfortunately, while I have produced several large PDF files (my record so far is a bit over 1600 pages) with FOP, I can't share them with anyone outside the company for which I am consulting. I would, however, be willing to develop a large representative example. I would just need the content. From there, I could develop the XSLT that would write the FO that FOP uses (my usual method for writing FO - I generally only look at the FO to debug). So, if someone can provide or point to a large open-source XML document that I could convert with FOP, I'd give it a go.

I do not think so. Or maybe it was the usual complaint about open source & limited resources? I think, you'll agree, that lack of resources is also often the case in many professional companies, and does not necessary have something to do with open source. FOP is popular. I believe, FOP is also good. I just want to find out, how good it is. My hope is, that either the FOP team or one of the numerous happy FOP users could provide me with a representative sample.
