RE: Why do you use FOP instead of ...

Well, it wouldn't be off-topic if you pursued this on the fop-user mailing
list. :-)

Why do people use XSL-FO? Because they need high-quality printing and the
formatting vocabulary described in the XSL 1.0 Recommendation suits those
needs, AND the data to be formatted is already represented in XML. That's my
minimalist view. :-)

I would like to know why FOP enthousiast (I am one) are using FO rather
than products such as Crystal Reports or other such software (anyone
Jetfoms ?). Just for the fun of playing with new technology ?

Thanks for any hints (in private since this is off-topic)
