FOP is best I have tried but not quite ideal
Yes, that's what I have been using to do it is Apache FOP after doing XSLT transforms from DocBook using some code to call the Xalan-C library.
It works pretty well, the problems usually come in on installing it on a new system and I have seen some issues with having getting the settings right under GNU's java runtime, but not so much under the Java one.
Also, I have had trouble with processing some types of images while others work fine.
