Using the PDF2 plugin with FOP

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.

Suite Solutions has taken over lead responsibility for the plugin for DITA-OT 1.5.

In a future version of the toolkit (possibly DITA-OT 1.5), it is expected that the plugin will be integrated to the toolkit and set up to work with FOP without this customization step. These steps are designed for using DITA-OT 1.4.2 or 1.4.2.1 with version 1.4.2 of the PDF2 plugin.
