Searching the web for html2pdf yields a number of ways to do it with a mixture of ghostscript / perl and other command line tools.  You then exec the scripts using: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/Runtime.html  (in their own threads).

This also looks promising (doing it all in java):

There is a lot of reading comments that look helpful.

good luck!

I know this question doesn't directly involve WebObjects but it is something that I'm trying to integrate into a WebObjects application so I'll just toss it out there anyways...

Does anyone know of any solution for converting HTML to PDF that will run on the Mac platform?  It needs to be a solution that is either A) a Java library that I can integrate into my WebObjects application or B) an application that can run on Mac server and be triggered from the WebObjects application by some means.  The input is flexible, I could give it a URL or pass it the HTML directly.  The output is equally flexible in that I could accept the raw output or a filename where the output is stored.

It doesn't matter if it's free or commercial as long as the price is not astronomical and the results look decent.
