| Abstract | High volume print jobs are getting more common due to the growing demand for personalized documents. In this context, Variable Data Printing (VDP) has become a useful tool for marketers who need to customize messages for each customer in promotion materials or marketing campaigns. VDP allows the creation of documents based on a template with variable and static portions. The rendering engine must be capable of transforming the variable portion into a resulting composed format, or PDL (Page Description Language) such as PDF, PS or SVG. The amount of variable content in a document is dependant on the publication layout. In addition, the features and the amount of the content to be rendered may vary according to the data loaded from the database. Therefore, the rendering process is invoked repeatedly and it can quickly become a bottleneck, especially in a production environment, compromising the entire document generation. In this scenario, high performance techniques appear to be an interesting alternative to increase the rendering phase throughput. This paper introduces a portable and scalable parallel solution for the Apache's rendering tool FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) which is used to render variable content expressed in XSL-FO (eXtensible Stylesheet Language-Formatting Objects). XSL-FO is extracted from a print job expressed in PPML (Personalized Print Markup Language), which is, in turn, obtained by the merging variable data in a template. The VDP Template is expressed using PPML/T (Personalized Print Markup Language Template). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
