From XSL Utility page:
XSL Utility is a graphical tool that was designed to make evaluation of
XFC easier. It can be used to convert XML documents to RTF, WML and
other formats such as PostScript and PDF. (For output formats other than
RTF and WML, XSL Utility relies on Open Source components.) XSL Utility
includes:
Norman Walsh's XSL stylesheets for DocBook, Simplified DocBook and Slides
Michael Kay's Saxon XSLT engine
Apache FOP FO processor
So it means that XSL Utility is a just wrapper for FOP FO processor if
you are inetersted in PDF output. Unfortunately outupt from FOP can't be
considered as of professional quality (OK it depends on your definition
of professional quality, but in my definition FOP isn't here yet).
