If you don't mind using commercial software, I'm using PD4ML to do this and it works like a charm (I gave up using iText, primarily because I didn't have the time to figure out some of it's quirks - although I'm using it in some places).

I grabbed the following method from our frameworks as an example.

But of course I'd love an open source alternative :-).

Cheers,

/** * Uses PD4ML to generate a PDF-file from HTML. * * @param htmlString The HTML to work from. * @param isLandscape * @return Rendered PDF-data. */ public static NSData convertHTMLToPdf( String htmlString, boolean isLandscape ) { java.awt.Dimension format = PD4Constants.A4; boolean landscapeValue = isLandscape; int topValue = 10; int leftValue = 10; int rightValue = 10; int bottomValue = 10; String unitsValue = "mm"; boolean patchValue = true; boolean splitValue = true; String proxyHost = ""; int proxyPort = 0; int userSpaceWidth = 780; ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream(); try { if ( proxyHost != null && proxyHost.length() != 0 && proxyPort != 0 ) { System.getProperties().setProperty("proxySet", "true"); System.getProperties().setProperty("proxyHost", proxyHost); System.getProperties().setProperty("proxyPort", "" + proxyPort); } PD4ML pd4ml = new PD4ML(); if( landscapeValue ) { format = pd4ml.changePageOrientation( format ); } pd4ml.setPageSize( format ); if( unitsValue.equals( "mm" ) ) { pd4ml.setPageInsetsMM( new java.awt.Insets(topValue, leftValue, bottomValue, rightValue) ); } else { pd4ml.setPageInsets( new java.awt.Insets(topValue, leftValue, bottomValue, rightValue) ); } pd4ml.setHtmlWidth( userSpaceWidth ); pd4ml.enableImgSplit( splitValue ); pd4ml.render( new StringReader( htmlString ), bos ); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } return new NSData( bos.toByteArray() ); }

Hi Pascal,
#1) An open source WO framework that renders PDF files from a HTML response the same as if a user did a "Print to PDF" in their browser ..... the framework can wrap iText or whatever .....
That one would be GREAT for me :-)
#2) The OpenOffice.org utility framework that is on your list
Thanks, Kieran
