Apache FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) is the world's first print formatter driven by XSL formatting objects (XSL-FO) and the world's first output independent formatter. It is a Java application that reads a formatting object (FO) tree and renders the resulting pages to a specified output. Output formats currently supported include PDF, PCL, PS, AFP, TIFF, PNG, SVG, XML (area tree representation), Print, AWT and TXT. The primary output target is PDF.

There is a newer version: 2.9
