Have you tried the FOP java package from Apache?
(http://xml.apache.org/fop/index.html)

I used to run that on my freeBSD and it gave me no problems. (The java
installation however wasn't a walk in the sun)

 | Hi,
 | 
 | how can I convert an XSL-FO file to PDF?
 | The XSL-FO file is generated by docbook XSL stylesheets.
 | 
 | I've tried /usr/ports/textproc/fop, but it chokes with a
 | lengthy exception dump after the first few pages; so it's
 | of no use.
 | 
 | Unfortunately, /usr/ports/print/passivetex is broken as well,
 | and won't install at all.
 | 
 | Any ideas or work-arounds?
 | 
 | Thanks.
