The most important thing for my company and their customers is Windows Support (Which I know you already have on your list). This is because whilst Linux accounts for a significant percentage of my customer's server installations, there are significanlty more using Windows. Some other features, which are also key for generating the majority of business documents: - keep-* property support - repeating table headers and footers - collapsing table borders - SVG support - block containers - support for reference orientation - markers - fo:list Whilst xmlroff is currently a long way behind FOP in terms of feature support, xmlroff's main advantage over FOP is it's potentially a whole lot quicker being C based as opposed to Java.
