Can you please suggest me a free Java API to convert RTF to HTML (or XHTML)?

Allow me to try to answer your question regarding how XSL-FO can help
you.
There are many ways to convert RTF to HTML. Aspose is one of them. You
can write an XSLT to convert the XHTML to XSL-FO which you could then
process with an FO rendering program (such as FOP or RenderX) to PDF.
If you're looking to stick with OSS/free libs then Aspose and RenderX
probably aren't for you as they are commercial products. There are many
rtf2html converters out there that you could use instead for conversion.
The rest you could achieve with FOP and Saxon.
If you go down this route you'd want to ensure that any HTML that you
generate is valid XHTML by running it though JTidy. And be warned.
XSL-FO isn't that easy to start with. Antenna House have some tutorials
and a default xhtml2fo.xsl stylesheet in the Samples section.

Finally, openOffice is not an option at all. It turned out that we don'
t want to couple our application with another one (openOffice.org).
Therefore, I am lost. After searching everything that can be searched in
the web I find no solution. Is there really not a solution for my
problem???
I think I saw somewhere talking about XSL-FO ... How could this help me,
if it could?

The problem with openOffice is that I have to install an openOffice
service on my web server and keep it running.
While this does not sound catastrophic, I would like to avoid it.

We are not aware of the system that will host the app, therefore it
should be as portable as Java can be.

So, it seems that I need to find out how to programmatically convert an
RTF (or DOC) to PDF. The rest is solved. Do you have a suggestion on
that? Would you suggest a different solution?

My own experience in this area has *not* emphasized Java. <URL:

to be feasible.
