Hi All,I'm wondering if anyone knows if there is a pdf generator out there for WO sites or even a converter for WO Components. I'd like to take a form and make a pdf version for printing.Thanks, Sherry
Another option may be "The Flying Saucer Project" - An XML/XHTML/CSS 2.1 Renderer, 100% Java, open-source (LGPL).
http://xhtmlrenderer.dev.java.net/This seems a little less known but I've had good success with it (no affiliation). Converts any XHTML + CSS 2.1 compliant input to other formats, usually PDF but apparently can do Swing no less. Passes ACID 2 and has some CSS 3 support. It uses iText internally for PDF output.
I'm using the latest pre-release without issue (R8pre2 as of Jan 08). Make sure the input validates as XHTML (for the most part, it's not as strict as http://validator.w3.org/).
WebStart demo app: https://xhtmlrenderer.dev.java.net/r7/demos.html Fonts:It needs to be told about custom fonts (ie. those not available in the JRE).
Example usage (with fonts):As a starting point a small example project in plain Java is attached (see readme).
