If you're using Windows, you could use the Perl "system" command, together with "pdftk.exe".

I use java / iText for bank statement production and enjoy the power of Java in that case, but I have "on the fly" cases I would love to create a "simplistic" PDF straight from PERL....which I use like a swiss army knife.

Shandelman [mailto:e_v_...@yahoo.com] Sent: Thursday, October 01, 2009 9:36 AM To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [iText-questions] Hello from Boston, USA ;-) and Question Hello, As I understand, there is no Perl port of iText. I am a professional software engineer with 20 years in the industry, including extensive experience with PostScript/PDF technologies, and also Perl. Would a port of iText to Perl be a good thing, in your opinion? That is, are there enough potential users (CGI, mod_perl, Mason, etc.) to justify the effort? If so, I would be willing to undertake it. Please share your thoughts.
