Depends upon how complex the report will be. I have done some of this kind of transformation before. One API is iText, which you can find from http://www.lowagie.com/iText/. My experience with iText is that it has some bugs to deal with table if the table needs to span several pages. Other than that, it is pretty good. Also from Apache XML project, you can find FOP. FOP allows you to transform a XML-based document, normally *.fo file, into a PDF file.
Hope it help. -----Original Message----- From: Ajay Chitre [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 27, 2001 11:25 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Creating reports in PDF format Hello, I have created a struts based web application which, among other things, allows users to create reports based on certain selection criteria. A new user requirement has come up which requires the reports to be displayed in PDF format (and Excel). Has anybody done anything similar in the past? I would greatly appreciate your help. I recall seeing emails regarding a simillar issue, but I can't find them in the mail archives! Please help. Thanks. Ajay Chitre Diligent Team, Inc.
