Good morning/afternoon/evening,

not being the programmer myself, but merely the one who just subscribed to
the mailinglist in order to post the question, plse bear with me.

Situation: an existing web-application using server-side Java, generating
HTML output that gets printed afterwards.
Not identical on all types of browsers, so the conversion to PDF is (one
of ?) the correct solution(s).
AFAIU, the idea would be to describe the lay-out of the page(s) in i-text
format, and later on, using a different writer, generating html or pdf.
Don't hesitate to correct me when wrong.

Question: is there something that can at least roughly convert existing
html code to the i-text format ? Being an illiterate, it looks rather
obvious to me, that we're not the first being confronted with this. Since
itext describes a document, just as HTML up to a certain level, there
should be some similarities, that might be convert-able ? Sure, for
employment POV, the best solution is to start from scratch, but is there a
one-to-best solution, being able to use this approach as a jumpstart ?

thx in advance,
