speedata Publisher About The speedata Publisher is a full featured and mature database publishing software. It generates PDF files from XML data and XML layout instructions. It is used to make product catalogs and other documents with high demands on the layout. Its built-in layout description language allows you to create almost arbitrary layouts, while keeping the job as simple as possible. Think of it as “XSL-FO on steroids” or “server side InDesign”. Examples There are some examples in the example repository on GitHub . Also, there are lots of small examples in the qa subdirectory that is used for quality assurance. See also our showcase . Can I use this in production? Yes. Absolutely. We release stable (long term support) versions once in a while which are heavily tested in commercial environments and we release development versions often. Note that these development are still safe to use, they just might contain some experimental new features. Funding This project heavily depends on business and user funding. Every bug report is welcome and every feature request is carefully considered. But without time to spend, this is very hard for me to work on. I might add the “needs funding” label on a bug report or feature request once in a while if I think that I can't implement this while doing other things.
