The flying saucer is quite neat. https://xhtmlrenderer.dev.java.net/ Under the hood it uses iText, but is a lot easier to setup and use than itext directly or jasper reports.
I use a freemarker html template styled with css for the layout and databinding and xhtmlrenderer does the rest. You can just write the pdf to disk for later reference or write to a ByteArrayOutputStream for a stream response. If your layout demands are very simple DynamicJasper might also be worth a look. You don't need xml templates for that but can generate a simple report from pure Java. 2009/5/20 Borut Bolčina <borut.bolc...@gmail.com> > One way of doing it is by generating PDF.
