[REBOL] Dialects and XML
From: al:bri:xtra at: 19-Nov-2000 22:07
Here's a XML to PDF converter written in Java:
http://xml.apache.org/fop/index.html
There's obvious applications here for generation of high quality
documents from Rebol. By writing a XML dialect for Rebol, script output from
Rebol could be semi-automatically "poured" into a .PDF file. By converting
the FOP's Java code into Rebol script, and adding a Rebol .pdf launch
command, automatic high quality print files are available for display or
printing. Carrying on from this, writing a Rebol script that reads a form
letter and a database, generating a .pdf file then launching the file with a
print command. This could then eliminate at least one application of MS Word
in many offices.
