Nope. Haven't been asked for it yet. Not sure why power point would be any
better (for my purposes at least) than PDF. I'm basically generating
printable reports from tabular data.
>>I'm curious about how you generate your PDFs.
Don't think I can help you there. Years ago, I got my company to buy a
source code license for a library called ClibPDF from a company called
FastIO. It's a pretty nice library, pretty easy to use, and it was licensed
under very reasonable terms (though not free). I'm still using it.
The problem is that FastIO seems to have vanished from the face of the earth
and possibly taken ClibPDF with it. There seems to have been a PHP wrapper
for it, and there's a PHP documentation page that talks about it being
deprecated and offers alternatives:

I suspect FastIO was bought out by some other company that has a pricier
library with more restrictive licensing for the express purpose of shutting
down the competition. That's one of the hideous realities of closed source
software.
