I've been working with xml and xslt for a while. But I'm new to
xslfo. I found this tutorial from antennahouse:
http://www.antennahouse.com/XSLsample/XSLsample.htm
Is this a good place to start to get familiar with xslfo? I'm not
sure which tool I should use to do the transformation and
formatting. I'm looking at perl's module XML::ApacheFOP. Do you have
any suggestions?
Any help is highly appreciated!
I have made available freely-downloadable excerpts of my XSL-FO book
that I sell here:
http://www.CraneSoftwrights.com/training/#pfux-dl
... where you will find the introductory chapters and all annexes
unabridged (and extensively hyperlinked from the PDF to the actual
specification). The purchase of any edition of the book entitles the
customer to all future editions of that book at no charge (customers
of the first edition have received six free updates so far) ... a
benefit I can offer with a PDF edition than with a paper
edition. Both A4 and US-letter-sized renditions are available if
customers want to print their own paper copy.
There is also instructor-led training. I note the time zone of your
email is the Pacific Time Zone ... I have proposed teaching XSL-FO in
three weeks' time near Oakland California. The early-bird date for
discounted registration is tomorrow, and while I have confirmed the
running of the XSLT/XQuery class the week before, there are not
enough students preregistered for the XSL-FO class, so that second
class will probably be cancelled. Anyone on the list who was sitting
on the fence regarding the XSL-FO class, please let me know soon or
the class will likely be cancelled.

I'm excited about the response to the XSLT/XQuery class as we already
have more students registered than we had in the Southern California
class last month.
Note also that Mulberry Technologies has for a long time been
offering excellent instructor-led XSL-FO classes, so you have a lot
to choose from.
