XSLFO (aka XSL-FO) is an XML vocabulary that is used to specify a pagination and other styling for page layout output. The acronym “FO” stands for Formatting Objects. XSLFO can be used in conjunction with XSLT to convert from any XML format into a paginated layout ready for printing or displaying. XSLFO defines a set of elements in XML that describes the way pages are set up. The contents of the pages are filled from flows. There can be static flows that appear on every page (for headers and footers) and the main flow which fills the body of the page.
