Hi Armin, Sorry for the delayed response. I'm more a project manager than coder these days. I have a more overall than detailed view. There is a lot of value in the Java2D approach - it can provide a gateway to a large number of output formats.

Actually I should have written "Using Apache POI" instead of "in Apache POI".
