Hi Guys, Thanks for the information first.
More background info, I mentioned Authorized Net together w/ paypal because of this good tutorial: http://www.fortytwo.gr/blog/14/Using-Paypal-with-Rails It mentioned "Our **first choice** for a payment gateway was AuthorizeNet. ". Let me explain my situation more here. And after I implemented Paypal payment, I haven't joined AuthorizeNet at all. I suspect that there is a better way then merely using paypal, tho I am not sure how they judge "first choice". And in fact, the charges is quite high in Paypal. Therefore, I am looking for these "better choices" now. For the PDF, I indeed got a pointer to wkhtmltopdf before when requesting a comparison of different PDF soln in Rails, esp Prince. After a list of known methods, I know that beside Prince, what are other common methods. My question is like asking which is the best TextEditor in Mac. Sure enough, there is no absolute answer. However, I wanna understand what is the trend in Rails upon the payment issues and wish that I can get some hints here.
