jPDFWriter by Qoppa Software

Generate Adobe Acrobat PDF© documents directly from your Java™ programs. jPDFWriter is a Java™ class library that allows you to create PDF documents directly from your Java programs without having to install any third party drivers or software. jPDFWriter emulates the standard Java™ classes to print and draw graphics to reduce the learning curve when using the library and reuse existing code.

jPDFWriter can create PDF files in two ways:

- PDF files can be created directly using jPDFWriter's very simple API. Simply create a PDFDocument object, create as many PDFPage objects as necessary, draw strings, graphics or any other elements supported by Graphics2D to the pages and then save the document.

- jPDFWriter also extends the standard Java PrinterJob so that you can create PDF files in the same way that you would print to a physical printer. This allows for reuse of existing printing code and for an application to decide, at runtime, whether to send the output to a printer or to a PDF file.
PDF files can be saved to files on a disk, written to a java.io.OutputStream or written directly to a javax.servlet.ServletOutputStream to show in a browser when working within a J2EE application server.

jPDFWriter is written entirely in Java™ so application portability and operating system independence are not compromised. jPDFWriter has been tested on Windows, Mac OSX and Linux.
