FOP in a Text Editing context
Hi,
I would like to know if there is a way to use FOP for text editing purpose (
I want to format some text located inside a box with line-breaking and
hyphenation feature ). I know that FOP allows XSL-FO as input and provides
outputs to various formats, but is there a way to use the source code in
order to process, for example, an AttribuatedString, format it, then
outputting the results in a Java object (ex: Paragraph, Page, etc).
What classes are needed ?
Thank you for your time

FOP doesn't cover this. You could reuse the low-level hyphenation and
line-breaking classes from FOP but the rest is FO-specific and does not
provide support for AttributedString. You'd have to build that part
yourself.
You could also look at the javax.swing.text package which contains some basic
infrastructure for editors.
