Abstract
XML sets a standard for the exchange of business data that is completely platform- and vendor-neutral. Because XML data comes in many forms, one of the most important technologies needed for XML applications is the ability to convert it into visible renderings. This paper focuses on the rendering of XML/XSL documents into a readable and printable format by means of a platform-independent process that grants high-quality printing and presents the product that has been developed. We will introduce the core components in the data rendering engine, X2P Server and present different levels of object abstraction. And the design pattern and the complete process of formatting and representing XSL stylesheet into different types of output formats in X2P server will be shown.
