[ANNOUNCEMENT] new pdf serializer in HEAD
I've just added a new pdf serializer to the HEAD branch. It is based on the
iText library. iText seems to come with a lot of nice features and I was told
it is supposed to consume less memory and be faster than fop. Haven't tested
the facts yet though... Anyway I thought it would be could to have an
alternative for PDF creation...
I just created another PDF link in the samples page.
happy testing ;-)
cheers

Regarding the SWF stuff... it desperatly needs some developers (HINT,HINT! ;-)
I'll try to create at least a hello world example...

Cool job, Torsten. I've heard a lot of good things about iText,
including using it in a future version of FOP.
We need now to make some fancy examples for this serializer (and also
for the SWFGenerator/Serializer).
Thanks,
Sylvain

Cool. We've been hearing more than one complaints about FOP's reliability
and speed lately.
