iText is definetely capable of outputing such files to a browser, you
however need to "read" the .txt file and decide how it should be rendered.

Subject: [iText-questions] Text File conversion in-memory through Servlets
Dear Sales/Customer Rep,
We have '.txt' files which are imported into AIX/Solaris directories on
daily basis. Earlier, we were using 'C' source library (obtained from
www.fastio.com) embedded into our CGI application code and it was
generating, using these .txt files as input and outputting PDF reports
on-the-fly (in memory) to users 'when' they needed through the web menus
options. We want to use your software with our Java code based application
just for the same purpose as it was used with 'C'/CGI code.
We have standard reports of upto 255 char length and we want to output them
into PDF using different fonts etc through Java Servlets residing in IBM's
WAS 6.0
I have gone through your Site and 'Tutorials of iTEXT by Example' but I did
not find any example of any ".txt" file taken as an INPUT file and
converted into OUTPUT of a PDF FILE. Is this feature or conversion
available through your APIs if used in JAVA Servlets of our application? Has
any commercial user of your package or any developer partner has used your
APIs for the purposes like ours?
Thank you in advance for response.
Rahath
