使用iText /任何其他库使用现成数据通过Java（Web应用程序）生成PDF报告

Question

Before you down vote me, I'm not here to ask on how to use iText in Java. My query is about generate pdf's(reports) using iText. We currently have a set of reports that are prepared in html, is there any way that I could use the data being prepared here to directly generate a pdf rather than write Java code to manually write (Java)code to prepare a table line by line as in the case of iText. A link to an existing solution would suffice as well.

Answer 1

try JasperReport . with this you can create templates and generate PDFs dynamically by passing just data. you can use iReport for designing jasper templates.

Answer 2

Another alternative to iText would be XSL-FO. You could create a Velocity template for the XSL-FO stylesheet and dynamically populate it with your data.
