You don't need to use Cocoon - my point was that the RTF API examples=20
of jfor are weak, while the XSL-FO examples are much more complete. If=20=

you want to know more about the RTF API, you might have to study what=20
happens when the XSL-FO examples are converted (from the command line).

You can also have a look at how the converter package uses the RTF API,=20=

as examples.

I'm copying the rest of your questions to the list in case someone=20
wants to have a look at them - I think there are few people using the=20
RTF API directly though, so you might need to dig deeper yourself in=20
case no one wants to answer (see also=20
http://codeconsult.ch/bertrand/archives/000072.html).
