    Example servlet to generate a fop printout from a servlet. Printing goes to the default printer on host where the servlet executes. Servlet param is:
    • fo: the path to a XSL-FO file to render
    or
    • xml: the path to an XML file to render
    • xslt: the path to an XSLT file that can transform the above XML to XSL-FO

    Example URL: http://servername/fop/servlet/FopPrintServlet?fo=readme.fo

                              javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response)
                       throws FOPException,
                              javax.xml.transform.TransformerException,
                              java.io.IOException
        Renders an input file (XML or XSL-FO) into a PDF file. It uses the JAXP transformer given to optionally transform the input document to XSL-FO. The transformer may be an identity transformer in which case the input must already be XSL-FO. The PDF is written to a byte array that is returned as the method's result.
        Overrides:
        render in class FopServlet
        Parameters:
        src - Input XML or XSL-FO
        transformer - Transformer to use for optional transformation
        response - HTTP response object
        Throws:
        FOPException - If an error occurs during the rendering of the XSL-FO
        javax.xml.transform.TransformerException - If an error occurs during XSL transformation
        java.io.IOException - In case of an I/O problem
