I think my question was written poorly, what I am trying to do is use my xslt to tranform my xml to html for screen (already accomplished) and to a print friendly page and also to pdf. Can xslt transform xml to pdf? and if so, how do you do that? > I'm not sure that this list is the right forum for this question, but > since > I work with printers I will help you out as best I can. > > First of all getting the transformed document to print directly to paper > is > going to depend on the target printer not the XML and XSLT tools you are > using.
