Xavier, DocBook is a Document Type Definition for Technical documentation. OpenJade is a processor XSL is XML Style Language Apache FOP is Formatting Objects Processor The above mentioned technologies are all different, so you can not compare them. However for use in documentation generation technology stack, you can compare OpenJade and Apache Cocoon (http://cocoon.apache.org) Apache Cocoon is a Document publishing framework, simply it can apply XSLT to XML document and produce the output on the fly. Whereas OpenJade and XSLTPROC are offline processors. If you want to see Cocoon in action visit http://www.xml-dev.com/blog/xml2html.php . You can enter a URL to DocBook XML document o the web page, and it will produce the HTML/PDF using Cocoon. In Peace, Saqib Ali ------------- http://validate.sf.net <---- HTML/XHTML/DocBook Validator On Fri, 12 Dec 2003, Xavier RAYNAUD wrote: > Hi ! > > I want to use documentation generation technologies, but I'm new to this domain. > Both bocbook/Jade and XSL/ApacheFOP seems interresting. > Both have XML input, both can generate HTML, PDF, PostScript, RTF... > > What is the difference between these two approach ?
