Hi
Can someone give me some general "where to start looking" advice please.
I AM : a dot net developer, good knowledge of xml / xsl transformation into
html.
I WANT : To produce PDF docs from xml feeds. Large numbers of files and some
very large.
Questions: I have heard of XSL-FO but know little about it. I have no idea
how to convert from XSL-FO to PDF. Are there microsoft / .net / even script
ways to do this easily? Do i need a component? Any recommendations (open
source freeware preferable but good recommendations mean more than the money)
Please help .. even if where to start looking / reading about this topic..
