Note: These instructions apply to DITA-OT 1.4.2.1 and earlier. Version 1.4.3 of the toolkit ships with this PDF plugin and allows use of FOP natively.
The PDF2 plugin was originally designed by Idiom Technologies to work with the XEP formatting engine from RenderX. With a little work, it is possible to make it work with Apache FOP.
