c# - FO.NET XSL-FO Capabilities -
i'm going try ask broad question here, not related specific code, rather expected outcome. see if can answer certainity fo.net able produce outcome me.
my goal: port service generating pdf based on xml document java (using apache fop) c#. make easier in setup using iis host.
where i'm at: have working wcf service gets xml document , transforms xsl-fo , returns browser pdf. what's left fix styling matches previous pdf generated java apache fop. i'm using fo.net , i'm hoping don't have redo if that's case it.
the xsl stylesheet using svg creating figures, importing images etc , know not supported in fo.net maybe there workaround. images can converted file format shapes might trickier.
expected outcome (as current service): http://imgur.com/inkzvdo
current outcome: http://imgur.com/y5dbb3x
question: can done using fo.net? if not, there other open source lib can use better suited or have solve in way?
the reason i'm trying use xsl-fo have 3 stylesheets defining output pdf (there 3 different pdf outputs) , nice not having redo using instance css.
i'm going answer myself, partly based on response recieved, partly on own experience using fo.net. don't recommend using c# pdf's if xsl-fo used styling. if c# requirement investigate css purpose instead. if c# not requirement, recommend using java , apache fop , host here. if you, in case, need host multiple services on same outgoing port, can use application request routing in iis (addon think) serve reverse proxy java servlet. feedback @mzjn!
