Help on large project with FOP

[Claes Bergsten <ac...@tjohoo.se>]

Hi,

I have been asked to propose a solution of
generating a large product catalog from XML
exported from a database. The result is supposed
to be in PDF and be sent directly to a printing
office for printing.

I have been working with FOP and XALAN some in
smaller projects/solutions. 
My experience with FOP is that it is memory and
time consuming.
And I just want an opinion from someone that has
worked alot with it in bigger projects.

Is it possible/efficent to use the XML 
approx. ~3 MB and via XALAN and XSL transform it
to FO and then use FOP to generate PDF?

It is lots of tables, images, chapters and
side headers/footers.

Please comments/suggestions.

Thanks,

Claes Bergsten
