XSL-FO Utility

In the previous section, you generated an Oracle XML Publisher report from an XML file and an XSLT file. The input can also be a set of XML files and XSLT files. The XSL-FO Utility generates an XSL-FO file from a set of input XML and XSLT files.

For example, let's create an XSL-FO file from two input XML files, catalog2.xml and catalog3.xml.

1. 1. Copy catalog2.xml (listed as follows) to the catalog2.xml file in the JDeveloper 11g project XMLPublisher.

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
   <!--A Oracle Magazine Catalog-->
   <catalog title="Oracle Magazine" publisher="Oracle Publishing">
   <magazine date="March-April 2008">
   <article>
   <title>Declarative Data Filtering</title>

   </article>
   </magazine>
   </catalog>
