In a XML'2005 poster in Atlanta today, Crane Softwrights Ltd.
announced the availability of commercial-grade publishing of UBL
instances to PDF format with freely-downloadable components[1].
Using digitally-signed XSL-FO stylesheet manifests, users of the
Universal Business Language 1.0 vocabulary[2] can use the Crane UBL
XSLT/XSL-FO stylesheets unchanged to produce quality PDF renderings
from UBL XML document instances using the Java-based Ibex Signature
Edition XSL-FO processor. There are no charges to download and use
these components to produce UN Layout Key renderings of instances of
UBL's eight document types.
Also announced is the scheduling of publicly-subscribed XSL
training[3] in Denver Colorado the week of March 13-17, 2006: 3 days
hands-on XSLT followed by 2 days hands-on XSL-FO. Discounts are
available for early registration and for attending both sessions.
Please let me know if you should have any questions on either of
these announcements.

[2] The OASIS Universal Business Language (UBL) defines a generic XML
interchange format for business documents. UBL is designed to
provide a universally understood and recognized commercial syntax for
legally binding business documents and to operate within a standard
business framework such as ISO 15000 (ebXML) to provide a complete,
standards-based infrastructure that can extend the benefits of
existing EDI systems to businesses of all sizes. UBL is freely
available to everyone without legal encumbrance or licensing fees.
