On the same lines i wanted to know if there is a tool that  helps convert from XML to PDF .. Not a full fledged tool but something that generates a code
which comprises of some default xsl-fo code that can help save some time ...
I bilieve there may not be anything like that coz pdf outputs  structure can vary depending on requirement .But  am still asking the group so that i can be 
sure of what i bilieve :-)

Thanks
