Formatting Objects Processor (FOP, also known as Apache FOP) is a Java application that converts XSL Formatting Objects (XSL-FO) files to PDF or other printable formats. FOP was originally developed by James Tauber who donated it to the Apache Software Foundation in 1999. It is part of the Apache XML Graphics project.

FOP is open source software, and is distributed under the Apache License 2.0.

Current status

[edit]

The latest version of Apache FOP is 2.9.[2] This is the eleventh stable release.

Major limitations

[edit]

Most important elements added in XSL-FO 1.1 (flow maps, table markers, indexes. etc.) are not available [3]

In addition, older XSL-FO 1.0 features are still not fully supported including automatic table layout, floats and more.

Input support

[edit]

Apache FOP supports embedding a number of image formats in the XSL-FO (through the <fo:external-graphic> element). These include:

Output formats

[edit]

Apache FOP supports the following output formats:
