I looked at the FOP stuff.  I'm always looking for a better way to create PDF's.
 Currently, my pdf's are created with cpysplf and is handled as a constant in
the pdf.  Works, but makes the pdf extremely large.  And it's child's play to
change the data with notepad.

FOP, which is at version 0.2 something, sounds great for a java environment. 
I'd have to have a good working knowledge of DOM, xml, xslt, java, and probably
a few other things before I could start to use FOP effectively.  Then I'd need
to learn xml-fo.  But in the long run, it looks to be a much better way to
create pdf's. 

I'm going to pursue this further when I do my hobby programming ;-) but I don't
see how this will help a programmer like me who is required to use rpg or C.
Well, it could help an rpg programmer reduce his workload (by giving away work
to a java programmer.)
