Re: RPGCGI - Convert HTML page to PDF

[TAllen@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

I don't know that I've used for converting HTML to PDF but it works well
for creating a PDF.  I see how that intermediate step of having the HTML
first to convert can be a bit tricky.
Does this need to be web-based?  There are utilities to print document as a
PDF but that would introduce complexity.

Thanks,

Hi Todd,

I have used iText on a number of occasions before and also did a small
amount of research on it for this project, but the information I am finding
is that it doesn't do a reliable job of converting HTML to PDF.  Have you
found otherwise?  Do you have some code you could share?
