Hi Guys,
Thanks for the suggestions. Right now as I have a limited time, I am
authenticating the users, grabbing the data from mysql, outputting it as
SVG and HTML, and then converting it to pdf, I have decided to continue
using TCPDF. After a few revisions most of the bugs I have complained
about were fixed, and I have created custom (hackish) workarounds for
those that would just take too long to wait for. In addition to the bug
fixes, after a few server reconfigurations, including increasing
available memory and allotted processing power, everything is working
quite well. It's only a few thousand PDFs in total per run, plus what
the Reps and clients will be having generated on demand, so a few server
instances running simultaneously can take care of that in very little time.
OT: As the client uses illustrator (I told them they should look into
inkscape), I also found a bug with Illustrator's SVG import/export
features too and reported it to Adobe; yet, even though this is a simple
bug to fix, I am not holding my breath to hear back from their devs. It
is funny that one guy can fix tons of bugs; yet, a team at Adobe won't
fix it, even if it's a security issue, for months. Open source rocks.
I am going to donate a little to the TCPDF project cause the guy has
been so amazing.
Thanks,
Anthony

OT: No experience scripting Open Office, but in my experience using
it, the PDF exporter sucks. I normally install a PDF printer like
CutePDF and use that to render my PDF's as the OO one can't seem to
render my documents without nasty artifacts, jaggy fonts and just poor
quality overall.

Maybe script it with Openoffice?
