Re: [docbook-apps] XInclude with xpointer and ID

[Eric Johnson <ejohnson@redhat.com>]

IIRC Xalan requires that you include the schema definition in the 
document's header for xml:id resolution to work.

Of course, it has XML-XSLT generation capabilities (as a nice bonus), but rather than do a transformation by itself it relies on Xalan that is supplied with FOP (look at /lib catalog of FOP distro). So, you question is more concerns XSLT-processor (Xalan), but not FOP itself. Please, try to search in Xalan docs for capabilities you required. Or you can use double step transform: get .fo file by xsltproc and .pdf (or other print related formats) by FOP.
