Customizing PDF Publishing
PDF Publishing Overview
There are several ways in which you can create PDF files with Arbortext Editor and Arbortext Styler or Arbortext Publishing Engine:
• With the APP publishing engine, you can publish PDF directly from an XML file or generate from intermediate PostScript source.
• With the FOSI publishing engine, you can publish PDF directly from an XML file.
* 
The FOSI and XSL-FO print engines are on sustained support and do not receive enhancements or maintenance fixes. APP is the recommended engine for print output.
See Publishing Engine Overview, Choosing PDF Configuration Options, and Print and PDF Configuration Files for an explanation of print engines and PDF configuration files.
