But note that FOP has some serious limitations in its support for XSL features, so depending on the nature of the presentations you need to produce it may not meet your needs. At least the last time I evaluated it (about 6 months ago, I think) it was quite slow compared to its commercial competitors. Cheers, Eliot -- W.
