What is FOA?
FOA is the world's first XSL-FO Authoring tool. It is a Java application that gives users a graphical interface to author XSL-FO stylesheets. FOA was created in collaboration with DIBE (University of Genoa). With FOA you can generate pages, page sequences and fill them with content provided into one or more XML files. FOA will generate the XSLT stylesheet that transforms the XML content into an XSL-FO document. FOA is compatible with WH2FO (see FOA & WH2FO) so you can author more quickly you documents. From FOA GUI is also possible to invoke an XSLT processor and an XSL-FO renderer, so you can see how the document looks like.

How does it work?
