| Ah, interesting, thanks!
PD4ML is completely closed, so that won't work for you. We're trying to move to completely OSS up here as well, and I've been meaning to check out "The Flying Saucer project" for a while. I've heard good things about that one:
But JPedal dies have a GPL-ed version, which works wery well:
Unfortunately I can't use the Core Image-based stuff from ERAttachment, since I'm deploying on Linux, otherwise that would be the obvious choice.

gs -sDEVICE=png16m -o MyFile-Page-%d-png16m.png MyFile.pdf
.... that command outputs each page (&d is page number) as a png.
Google has helped me to find "wkpdf" tool at link below ..... which reminds me to clarify that OS-X-only HTML to PDF (or image) tool, even on commandline is workable too since deployment is XServes
Anyone else know of any other java or commandline tools like wkpdf?
