I have been confronted with a similar question recently (PDFlib or alike versus Cocoon). I decided to use Cocoon and an XSL-FO parser to generate PDF.

With xsl-fo you can very easily influence the look and feel of a PDF document, while in toolkits like PDFlib you have to assemble them object by object, often having to calculate positioning of images etc. yourself and conceive ways to flow text over multiple pages relatively easy..

But depending on your situation you might choose otherwise.

Cannot really tell anything about PDF/X. Google tells me that it is a subset of PDF, leaving out unnecessary fancy stuff. But I guess that PDF that is generated with XSL-FO doesn't contain a lot of that fancy stuff... :)

HTH,

Hello, Cocoon world!

Currently I am deciding wether to use Cocoon or the PDFLib to poduce PDF
documentes over a web application. A very important question for me is the
following: Can I produce PDF/X compatible files or is there another way to get
CMYK colour schemes in PDF documents with Cocoon?

In the hope that someone here is able to help me,

Greetings and Good Byte


Dominic
