XSL-FO stands for Extensible Stylesheet Language Formatting Objects. XSL-FO is used to describe the way structured Xml documents should be presented. XSL-FO is a language used for formatting Xml data for output to screen, other media or paper. XSL-FO is really easy to learn, master and use. Thus it is widely used to express style, layout, and pagination of Xml documents.

The reason of formatting of XSL-FO files is laid down into its origin. XSL-FO was created to present Xml documents for output, be it PDF, XPS, PS, SVG or TIFF. XSL-FO allows creating flows, blocks, lines, links, lists, tables, markers, bookmarks, page numbers, etc. Altsoft Xml2PDF formatter allows also generating multi-layer PDF documents, embedding files to PDF and setting properties to PDF files.

If it is needed to automate the formatting process Altsoft provides also a tool for doing this - Xml2PDF Commander is for your service.
