Reviews for Definitive XSL-FO (Definitive XML)

1. Good reference, poor tutor

   Rated 4 out of 5 stars, January 12th, 2006

   One of the few text books on this new subject and written by someone very involved in the definition process. I was looking for a tutor to help me learn what XSL-FO could do as well as a reference book for when I became more familiar. In the latter capacity this book is excellent but do not expect it to help you to pick up XSL-FO initially. For instance, examples are very fragmented and rarely accompanied by the rendered result but when you need to know the properties for a given object it is the book you need.
