Hello !

I am looking for a (free) library to generate dynamically PDF files
for a Websphere Commerce's site. Ideally, I would like to generate a
PDF file from a JSP page (like iText in command line, but free and
integrated in Java), but if you have an "easy" other way to do it, it
would interest me too.

Sorry for my english (I am french) and thank you by advance for your
help. I have searched on the web, but solutions I have found seem hard
to implement, and I would like to know your advices. Thanks !

Hi there,

Why can't you use iText? You should be able to do anything you can do
one the command line in a java program, too.
I do not know what you would consider easy, but it might be worth
having a look at the print module of UJAC
(http://ujac.sourceforge.net/). It's XML based and uses iText under the
hood for PDF generation.

Cheers, mano

The problem with iText is that the version including command line
processing is not free (not very expansive, but my company wants a
free solution). Do you know a tutorial or a comprehensive
documentation for UJAC tools, especially for pdf generation ? Do I
need the commercial version of iText to use it ?
