Changing the Report Structure

You can change the physical appearance of your report by providing your own,
customized index and type transformations. These transformations process XML data
produced by the report generator. You can, for example, create a tool based on XSL
Formatting Objects (XSL-FO), and use it to turn your report into a book, complete with
index tabs and a table of contents.

This level of customization is beyond the scope of this document, but you can find a
variety of documentation about XML-related technologies on the Internet or in
bookstores.
