Examples for the use of xsl:fo can be found in the Fop distribution in the subdirectory xml-fop/docs/examples/fo. You can start transformation of all fo files into pdf files by starting xml-fop/docs/examples/runtests (only source distribution). The resulting test files can be found in xml-fop/docs/examples/tests At the moment the following files are part of the distribution: simple.fo - a very simple file which gives use a first impression of the structure of an fo file normal.fo - a simple file showing the use of a 2 level of headings, normal text and a header. table.fo - some table examples list.fo - a short tutorial how to use list fo's and properties images.fo - shows how to embed gif and jpg images into the xsl:fo file using external-graphic. border.fo - a not so simple example how to use borders in tables extensive.fo - a longer test file containing a lot of different flow objects and properties. A good candidate to test your bugfix or new Fop code. leader.fo - shows different uses of fo:leader, p.e. as rule or in a table of content normalex.fo - shows the use of computed property values inhprop.fo - shows the use of inherited property values instream.fo - shows the use of fo:instream-foreign-object together with svg textdeko.fo - shows the use of the property textdecoration readme.fo - uses an old version of Fop documentation for a longer example Look also into the directory examples/svg. There you find some very extensive svg examples. Just start makedoc. In the directory examples/pagination you find a suite of examples showing the use of xsl:fo pagination. Developers will find the first steps to a test suite for all implemented formatting objects and properties in xml-fop/test/xml/.
