-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Thanks, but we will not know anything about the look of the documents, it can be in any style. We are tryng to generate Statements(with bar chart, pie chart, texts and images), Check documents & regular documents(with text and images) and so, it is very difficult for us to create a pre-defined common XSL for all these types of documents.
Assume that I have a pre-defined XSL and am creating a XML documents at runtime, how do you flush out the contents to the pdf documents without keeeping them in memory and append all the remaining participants data to the same pdf?. We may use Inetsoft or iText or any other 3rd party software to generate the pdf if we are not able to use fop.

Hi, what about having an intermediate XML format for your contents that is common to all of your clients, and having different XSL style sheets for producing the actual XSL-FO? You might be able to factor out common stuff into an included XSL. I might have not fully understood your requirements, though.
