I'd like to learn what people use to generate pdf files. I want to create pdf from an epl page, with all data from the database.
I have always used LaTeX in the past, because latex gives me a comfortable way to generate tables (I generated invoices).
The way I did it, was to have a template latex file, with some special keywords like ADDRESS, MONEYSUM etc. which I would search and replace with a simple regexp while writing the new file into /tmp. Then a single run with pdflatex gives me a pdf in /tmp which I either send back via the browser (and the proper mime-type) or spool to the right printer directly via a call to "lpr".
