Does anyone have any performance numbers of PDF generation tools for very large
PDFs (about 600
pages/1 meg in size)?
We use FOP and it takes about 60 seconds (100 milliseconds per page) to convert
the transformed XML
into PDF for 600 pages. How does this compare to other tools out there or from
your own experience?
Thanks,
-Matt

Jim, it's really pretty straightforward, there are some gotchas with
Apache's FO processor in that it's not fully compliant (but then again,
I don't know if any are fully compliant) -- but FOP it is open source,
so you can contribute back to it :)
I use Oxygen (Eclipse plugin) for the XML editing and transforming to FO
and running it through FO, but the xml/xsl editor in the WST that Chris
Nelson mentioned can probably handle the XSL editing and running through
transformations. You might find one that plugs into your ide nicely, or
as another standalone tool like: Check out www.xslfast.com or
www.inventivedesigners.com/scriptura
Let me know what you end up doing.

FOP framework to do so. For those who have done this, was there another tool
used to facilitate the
creation of the XSL files containing the FOP tags? From the surface this
appears to be a very
difficult task in that the FOP tags are very cumbersome to use. Is there an
easy way to accomplish
this.
