Jacopo Cappellato commented on OFBIZ-203:
-----------------------------------------

Jeremy,

I appreciate Leon's work, but in my opinion the best approach would be to follow David's suggestion and implement it as a screen + ftl template.
Now that the screen widgets can also render output in text/xml/fo I think that Si's concerns are all solved.

> Define a macro <@ofbizPostalAddress address=inputMapOrGenericValue/>  to format postal addresses in a consistent, flexible way with attention to country postal formats.  The output should support both HTML and Text formats.  It should be easily extensible, with future XSL:Fo support in mind.
> I created an implementation as an exercise to learn the freemarker template system.  It was designed with future macros in mind.  Currently implemented are rules for generating US, German and Royal Mail format postal addresses.  (The address country determines the format.)  Also provided are test.bsh and test.ftl so people may try them out.
