A pure-Java library that renders well-formed XHTML/HTML5 with CSS 2.1+ layout and outputs PDF documents (or images), built on Apache PDFBox. It supports SVG and MathML plugins, PDF/A compliance, and accessible PDFs (WCAG, Section 508, PDF/UA).
Use cases
- generate pdf invoices from html templates
- convert html reports to pdf in java
- create accessible pdf documents that meet section 508
- render server-side pdf from xhtml with css
- generate pdf/a compliant documents
- produce pdfs with svg images embedded
When to choose
- you need PDF generation on the JVM without native dependencies
- accessibility compliance (PDF/UA, WCAG, Section 508) is required
- you want PDF/A standards compliance and SVG support
- you can craft HTML/CSS specifically for the engine
When to avoid
- you need to faithfully render arbitrary modern HTML5+ web pages
- you rely on OpenType font features
- you need heavy RTL/bidirectional text support
