   Second Edition - 2002-04-05 - ISBN 1-894049-09-8
   Copyright (c) 2002 Crane Softwrights Ltd.
   / 361 Pages / Subscription price includes free updates,
   /           / soft-copy of included examples, and an
   /           / accessible rendition and 10 PDF renditions.
   /           / Free 175-page download preview excerpt.

This revised Second Edition again contains all formatting objects of the 
W3C XSLFO 1.0 Recommendation with additional text, examples, twice as many 
diagrams, and new content based on feedback and requests for additions from 
existing customers.  It has been four months since the last edition.

The free download preview excerpt (in both A4 and US-letter page sizes) has 
also been updated to reflect the content of the new edition.  If you have 
downloaded the earlier free preview excerpt, you may wish to pick up a new 
copy.

As with our other editions of our electronically distributed training 
material, the purchase of any edition of any electronic publication 
entitles the customer to all future editions of the same material at no 
charge.  Future editions will continue to track changes in the 
Recommendations, therefore, your one purchase (there are no continual fees) 
will always be up-to-date with these W3C technologies.  Also, you can 
influence how the material evolves by asking us to consider changes you'd 
like to see.

Information can be obtained from the link below to the "Book Sales" section 
on the Crane web site (also the location of the free download preview excerpt).

We hope you find this useful and we look forward to your feedback.
