Hi

Does anyone have experience of getting good quality results going from xml to 
printable formats? I've picked up that .fo is a possible route but results 
are mixed from
pdf (using pdftex with passivetex) which is quite good
to others producing ps which is unreadable
to no method atall to get to tex.

If anyone has experience of any of these, and or other formats, I'd be 
interested to learn how they have done it.

This seems an area where the sgml tools are far stronger than the xml tools 
that I can find.

Thanks
Alasdair


PS Emma Jan - It would be good to see a draft of your new Author's Guide when 
it is in a reasonable form.
