A template processor converts an initial template document into an XSL template that can be used to automatically generate reports from report data extracted from a database or other application. Users create initial template documents using a word processor or other rich-text editing application. The initial template document employs the word processor's native formatting features to specify the formatting of report data. The initial template document includes placeholder tags inserted by the user to define the locations of report data in the report. The initial template document also includes transformation tags that dynamically define the content of a report based on the value or quantity of report data. The template processor can include a reader adapted to read portions of the initial template file and a parser adapted to create corresponding XSL code from these portions. The XSL template can be combined with XML-formatted data to create a report.

RTF template and XSL/FO conversion: a new way to create computer reports

In various embodiments, a method for generating documents in native application formats includes receiving a document template as a first document according to a native format. The first document is parsed to generate an Extensible Document Transformation Language (XDTL) template representing the document template. An XDTL execution document is generated based on the XDTL template. A second document is then generated according to the native format based on the XDTL execution document.

Extensible document transformation language: an innovative way of generating business document and report

A method of and system for evaluating contacts stored in data source. In one embodiment the method allows a user to define a data format; allows a user to define a plurality of rules intended to operate on and assess a quality of data formatted according to the data format; map data identifying a plurality of contacts from the data source to the data format; and execute the plurality of rules on the mapped data to produce a set of analyzed data that allows evaluation of potential contacts according to an assessed quality of the data.

This disclosure describes systems, methods and software programs for transforming and/or translating a variety of documents, including without limitation XSL documents. In one aspect, any static information may be removed from XSL/FO files before transforming those files. This can greatly enhance the speed of transformation of such files. In another aspect, an XSL/FO file can be tagged in order to allow for the identification of the translatable data, such that the translatable data can be removed from the XSL/FO file and inserted into an XLIFF file. The translatable data can be then translated (e.g., by an automated process, by a human translator, etc.) and/or inserted back into an XSL file after translation.
