Re: [docbook-apps] Docbook XSL and FOP 2.0

Hi Dean,

If it's worth anything, I stumbled upon the same problem when converting 
DITA to PDF using Apache FOP 2.0 (the bug I posted was marked as a 
duplicate as yours):

> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-2479

After I made a patch to guard the NPE I successfully translated our 
user's manual's 1000+ pages to PDF.
But that left me with a bitter test of the initial Apache FOP 2.0 encounter.

I will probably wait for 2.1 before I integrate it into our product 
(Oxygen XML Editor).

Regards,
Radu
