Subject: Re: [xsl] Converting XML into ODT document to print as paper From: "Peter Flynn peter@xxxxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2020 15:24:33 -0000 |
I would need to convert XML to something that has a fixed page layout ready to print, like ODT/OOXML or PDF.
I know OOXML is complex, but since the final document needs to be printed and keep the same layout, probably HTML output is not good for this (I guess!).
What I need at the moment is just a quick and dirty proof of concept to show that this conversion is feasible and not too difficult, to show it to decision makers (I'm not a XSLT developer myself).
My first thought was to unzip the ODT model I have, look at the content.xml inside and then try to transform my XML into that same structure (as suggested here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38298174/directly-convert-a-single-xml-file-to-docx).
However, probably that's the hard way...
I'm doing some research, any tips or pointers or advice or recommendation or examples here would be highly appreciated. Is there any best practice to do this? or a ready-made solution?
I did a quick test just now and the results are at http://xml.silmaril.ie/software
