Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] many problems with converting DocBook XML to PDF
Micheal mentioned XEP, and I'll mention Antenna House's XSL Formatter. The latest version has a beta MathML module. It also is a commercial product. Both of those products handle most of the XSL-FO 1.0 spec and produce high quality output suitable for publication.
