In a XML'2005 poster in Atlanta today, Crane Softwrights Ltd. announced the availability of commercial-grade publishing of UBL instances to PDF format with freely-downloadable components[1].

Using digitally-signed XSL-FO stylesheet manifests, users of the Universal Business Language 1.0 vocabulary[2] can use the Crane UBL XSLT/XSL-FO stylesheets unchanged to produce quality PDF renderings from UBL XML document instances using the Java-based Ibex Signature Edition XSL-FO processor. There are no charges to download and use these components to produce UN Layout Key renderings of instances of UBL's eight document types.

Also announced is the scheduling of publicly-subscribed XSL training[3] in Denver Colorado the week of March 13-17, 2006: 3 days hands-on XSLT followed by 2 days hands-on XSL-FO. Discounts are available for early registration and for attending both sessions.

Please let me know if you should have any questions on either of these announcements.

[2] The OASIS Universal Business Language (UBL) defines a generic XML interchange format for business documents. UBL is designed to provide a universally understood and recognized commercial syntax for legally binding business documents and to operate within a standard business framework such as ISO 15000 (ebXML) to provide a complete, standards-based infrastructure that can extend the benefits of existing EDI systems to businesses of all sizes. UBL is freely available to everyone without legal encumbrance or licensing fees.
