What is XMLmind XSL-FO Converter?

XMLmind XSL-FO Converter is an XSL-FO processor similar to Apache FOP, RenderX XEP or Antenna House XSL Formatter, except that it generates RTF, WML, ODT and DOCX file formats rather than PDF.

More importantly, this commercial product comes with a handy desktop application called "XMLmind XSL Utility" (http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/xsl_utility.html) which makes it easy converting DITA, DocBook, XHTML documents to RTF, WML, ODT, DOCX (and PDF thanks to Apache FOP).

XMLmind XSL Utility also makes it easy customizing the deliverables it generates (PDF, RTF, WML, ODT, DOCX, HTML, EPUB, Web Help, etc) and this, without modifying configuration files by hand and without prior knowledge of XSLT.
