-Apache FOP is a print formatter driven by XSL formatting objects. It
-is a Java application that reads a formatting object tree conforming
-to the XSL 1.1 Recommendation (05 December 2006) and then turns it
-into a PDF document, certain other output formats or allows you to
-preview it directly on screen.
+Apache? FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) is a print formatter driven
+by XSL formatting objects (XSL-FO) and an output independent formatter.
+It is a Java application that reads a formatting object (FO) tree and
+renders the resulting pages to a specified output.
-Note that not all parts of the XSL 1.1 specification have yet been
-implemented.
+Output formats currently supported include PDF, PS, PCL, AFP, XML
+(area tree representation), Print, AWT and PNG, and to a lesser extent,
+RTF and TXT. The primary output target is PDF.
+
+The goals of the Apache FOP project are to deliver an XSL-FO to PDF
+formatter that is compliant to at least the Basic conformance level
+described in the W3C Recommendation from 05 December 2006, and that
+complies with the November 2001 Portable Document Format Specification
+(Version 1.4) from Adobe Systems.
