Native PDF Publishing and XSLT

I am exploring native PDF publishing with AEM. Is there a way to modify the content using XSLT before the PDF is created? Or before the intermediate HTML is created? Thank you.

It is possible to modify content using JavaScript functionality on intermediate HTML  before PDF publishing. Native PDF doesn't have XSLT transformation.


Some examples of using JS in Native PDF:
Add Enterprise Branding to the First Page of a PDF
Use JavaScript to work with content or style


Let us know your use case to assist you better.

    I don't have any specific use cases yet. My client is currently using an AEM to FrameMaker workflow and we are investigating using native PDF publishing from AEM.

    @frameexpert AFAIK AEM does not natively support XSLT transformations directly before PDF generation.
