print/publisher: speedata Publisher

speedata Publisher is a professional, non-interactive layout engine for
database publishing. It generates high-quality PDF files from XML data
and XML layout instructions, making it well suited for product catalogs,
price lists, and other documents with demanding layout requirements.
The layout description language allows complex, nearly arbitrary page
designs while keeping the job as straightforward as possible. It can be
thought of as "XSL-FO on steroids" or a server-side alternative to
desktop publishing tools like InDesign. It is production-proven and used
in commercial environments worldwide.
The core typesetting engine is LuaTeX (not included; must be provided
separately via download.speedata.de or the official packages). The Go
front-end binary (sp) drives the build process and handles XML parsing,
resource loading, and orchestration of the LuaTeX process.
