Ok, so why not generate XSL-FO and use Apache FOP? You get multiple output formats that way. Only drawback at the moment: No support for automatically sized column-widths in tables. If you interface directly with a PDF library you have to do all the difficult page-breaking yourself. FOP does all that already. Of course, if you have an HTML component (with pagination support) that can paint to Java2D/Graphics2D you can easily use a PDF library with Java2D support directly. Unfortunately, PDFBox doesn't have that, yet, while FOP does. Another example where PDFBox and FOP's PDF library could profit from each other.
