Hi, Jade has an FOT backend that produces an XML representation of the output DSSSL FO tree. It seems to me that it shouldn't be difficult to transform that to XSL FO. Maybe that is what you mean? Since this is a XML to XML transformation, you can use a DSSSL stylesheet or XSLT or any other tool for that. Better yet, to add a new backend to jade that produces XSL FO. I think DSSSL FO and XSL FO are close enough (at least to what jade supports) that it shouldn't be difficult to map from one to the other.
