Several previous topic imply that PDFs can be generated via XSL transformations. Can anyone tell me how this is done, or perhaps recommend a good information source on how to do so?
The "classic" method would be to transform to an xml document using the xsl formatting objects markup (xsl-fo). You can then transform this to pdf using a number a tools. There are other less pure methods, transform to html, open the html in Word or similar and print out to Adobe pseudo print driver...
