can you tell me if the pdf creation from web-based forms can also include full-on formatting with images, text, etc.
I have no idea what you are talking about.
The form we want to convert to pdf on the fly is somewhat involved and precise --
It's HTML that is posted to a server.
How can that be involved and precise?
That doesn't make any sense.

If you need a precise form, create one with Open Office or Acrobat;
then use iText to fill it. Why would you "convert to PDF" if you want it to be precise. Sounds like an idea of somebody who "fortunately didn't spend much time on research."
and we would want to maintain that formatting along w/ the user-input data as precisely as possible (but in pdf form, of course). Please advise.
If you want a precise form, serve it as a PDF. let the end user fill in the PDF, post it as FDF and store the FDFs (or fill out the form using the data in the FDF).

Now please don't ask us what FDF means.
