We should try it. Who's game to upgrade our FOP version and verify our PDF/RTF exports still work? Thanks -Vincent Begin forwarded message:

Apache FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) is a print formatter driven by XSL Formatting Objects [1] and an output independent formatter. It is a Java application that reads a formatting object tree and renders the resulting pages to a specified output. Output formats currently supported include PDF, PS, PCL, AFP, Print and TIFF/PNG. Apache FOP is Open Source software and published under the Apache License v2.0.

It took longer than expected but we're happy to present the final Apache FOP 0.95 stable release. This is basically a bugfix release to 0.95beta. The most important changes since the previous stable release (0.94) are: - many bug fixes and improvements in tables, better support for keeps and breaks, new features: conditional borders and background on columns and header/footer/body; - better image handling thanks to the new image loading framework provided by the Apache XML Graphics Commons dependency; - improvements and bugfixes for font handling and font auto-detection/-registration; - performance improvements and memory optimizations for the property handling in the FO tree. - elimination of a potential multi-threading problem. - some feature enhancements for RTF output (partial fo:leader support, fo:page-number-citation)

Please note that support for Java 1.3 has been dropped. Only one type of binaries is provided now, that will run on 1.4+ JREs.
