I've been using iText (http://itextpdf.com/) after using PDF::API2 for years.
API2 hasn't grown and even once you know it, it's tricky to use. The community
is inactive.
iText is Java and the community is vibrant. I'll have my Catalyst app assemble
a whole bunch of data and ship it to iText as

Hi Charlie,
Thanks for that. I've looked at various html 2 pdf tools (I used html2ps for
a project about 10 years ago). But lack of even basic CSS support makes the
them useless for creating pretty PDFs.
In reality, this project doesn't really need PDF output (HTML would work
fine), but

Thanks, that was a good intro. It looks like I could almost get away with a
simple LaTeX table for the form. But I can see myself getting bogged down by
the details; I think latex is going to be too hard

Yeah, they're both basically just wrappers..
PDF::Reuse
We use simple View::TT and then a Filter:
[%- USE Latex; FILTER latex(pdf) -%]
Its perfekt!

Good afternoon,
Both of these seem to be almost identical.
Catalyst::View::PDF::Reuse
Catalyst::View::PDF::API2
Is one better to use than the other? C::V::PDF::API2 has been
