Doubts on using PDFbox to convert XML to PDF
Hi,
I am having a requirement to convert already existing XML files to PDF and pass to an API, so on my research I found Apache PDFbox and Apache FOP.
So, my queries are :
1. How to create pdf from xml using Apache PDFBox? Any example codes.
2. Examples of how to create pdf from xml using Apache PDFBox using JavaScript.
If for that conversion Apache FOP is needed, then
1. Is Apache FOP free of cost? Is there any licensing cost involved for using Apache FOP?
2. Examples of how to create pdf from xml using Apache FOP using JavaScript.
Thank You
Akhil Shaji

Hi,
PDFBox doesn't have an API to convert from XML to PDF. Re licensing of
FOP (which has its own channels), read the apache license here:
