Looking at release notes for XXE 10.0:
“The xxeconvert command-line utility, which replaces the

We currently run XSLUtil on a dedicated VM to build PDF & HTML on change
commit. Is the intention here that we can/should migrate to xxeconvert
on our build server when we upgrade to XXE 10?
If you are satisfied with XMLmind XSL Utility (xslutil;
http://www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/xsl_utility.html), I don't see any
reason to migrate to xxeconvert. (Good old saying: "if it ain't broke,
don't fix it".)
However please note that:
1) xslutil in its command-line mode
(www.xmlmind.com/foconverter/_distrib/xslutil/doc/help/index.html) is
NOT officially supported on headless servers. It may or may not run, for
all your use cases, on a headless server. We don't know. We have never
tested this.
2) The same could be said for xxetool, XXE v9 command-line tool.
3) Unlike xxetool, xxeconvert, which is XXE v10 command-line conversion
tool, is guaranteed to run on headless servers. That is, if a conversion
fails with a java.awt.HeadlessException, simply report this as a bug and
we will fix it.
