    Output results to a .pdf format?

    Hi guys!!

    I want to ask if there is any code that i can convert my output to a readable string in .pdf format? I think i need a special library for it isn't it? Is there a sample code that convert an output to a .pdf format? If you have it can you please give the link or post the code here. Thanks!

    The 2 most popular API's are:

    CLIB and PDFLib (google and you'll find em)
    They are both commercially licensed however and are a little pricy. As a side note, PHP has a built in library - but again, if you use it, you are supposed to pay for it.

    Apache's FOP can transform XSL-FO to PDF, so they probably have some API too, and Apache's APIs are usually great.
