Re: [xsl] xml to pdf or word

[Mailer Mailer <maillistboxes at yahoo dot com>]

Hi Adam,

I have done this kind of work, but my pdf views are
very simple. My architecture that there will be an
xml, which should be validated my DTD and I have
created an xsl which will generate the PDF with that
information. My requirement was to create an existing
xml to PDF. I converted that XML to another XML and
then finally converted to PDF.
Please see the PDF structure first, it is a tree
structure and suitable to be represented as XML.
Check examples in PDFSpecs1.3
