Convert jsp to PDF

[Deepak Singh]

Hi,

I have a jsp page which renders data based on session objects and it uses jstl.

I need to give the user an option to save this JSpP page as PDF. So i can give the call to a servlet after users click on the link and generate jsp in a new window. But how can i make this downloadable as PDF or printable as PDF ?

Thanks 
Deepak Singh

Hi Deepak,

Your JSP is rendered as HTML. And you want to provide your user to download

the same presentation of your JSP, in PDF format.

So, you need to convert HTML presentation format in PDF presentation format.

It's what i understand about your wish.

You have solutions to do that.

1) There is libraries to convert HTML to PDF ( but the conversion is not always very good)

2) You can use a specialized framework ( Jasper report, BIRT etc...)

3) You can clone your JSP presentation in alternative formats (XML XSL and FO ). Have a look to
Apache FOP.

What you want to do is possible.

I hope it helps.

Regards.

Karim Duran.
