+Apache FOP is a print formatter driven by XSL formatting objects. It
+is a Java application that reads a formatting object tree conforming
+to the XSL 1.1 Recommendation (05 December 2006) and then turns it
+into a PDF document, certain other output formats or allows you to
+preview it directly on screen.
+
+Note that not all parts of the XSL 1.1 specification have yet been
+implemented.
+
+This is the old fop 2.0 for the incredibly ancient jdk 6 (including
+openjdk6). If you are running jdk 7 or newer, please use fop, also
+available on SBo.
+
+Also note that fop and fop2.0 cannot coexist on the same computer.
+
+jai is an optional but recommended dependency.
