Yes, following the language of the spec, the DFDL processor does the
parser/unparsing.

Subject: DFDL does neither parsing nor unparsing ... do you agree?
Hi Folks,
In my slides on DFDL I say this:
* To recap, DFDL’s biggest innovations are that it is:
* Comprehensive - a union of the capabilities of prior systems
* Standardized
* Able to perform unparsing
I believe the last sub-bullet is incorrect. DFDL is a language. DFDL does
neither parsing nor unparsing. A DFDL processor, using a description found in a
DFDL schema, is able to do parsing and unparsing. Do you agree?
