Aren't they integrating it with FOP?

http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.92/output.html#rtf

This is for the development version of FOP.

It seems the last release date/version number suggests this is a "dead

jfor      V0.7.2rc1      July 16, 2003

That's too bad... it seems it could be quite a useful tool if it was
completed...

Of course the source is sitting there wide open and ready to be
finished off...  Too late as a Google Summer of Code project, but
theres always next year.  It seems like it could be a good candidate
for the right college student to come along and propose in about nine
months or so from now when next years "proposal season" opens up...
Something to keep in mind for any students out there that this might
find some interest with...

Would also require a mentor to guide the development...  Again,
something to keep in mind for next year if acting as the mentor for a
project like this interests any of you that have this level of
expertise.

Thanks, I was thinking about using it instead of FOP. Thanks for saving
me the hassle :).

(We evaluated it twice, once about a year ago and then again about 3 or 4 months ago.) As I recall, I believe the XSL-FO implementation is too limited for our use (more limited than Apache FOP), so there were XSL-FO features that we were using that JFOR did not support.
