After quick check, seems seam is a bit of big framework to add for
just pdf, does not support jdk 1.4 (>=5.0 only), and anyway there
doesn't seem to be seam component that add text at specific location
of an existing document, which is my aim. (It will be generated by a
fill the form, get a prefilled PDF form to print web page).
Lol, we are currently coding that exact set of component at work, cause
we found no existing framework to do it. We too found seam and we too
dropped it because it was new document only and too heavy. If you find
an existing framework using the itext stampers (overlay information on
top of existing pdf page) for computer aided text form filling, we'll be
happy to use it and save on development time.
Any other suggestion?
Thank you.

Haven't tried this myself yet, but Seam can generate PDFs.

Hello,
i come across a requirement where i need to generate a PDF, by
adding
text at specific location inside an existing pdf. I thought about
using
a servlet that does it using itext. However, after turning on my
brain,
i think it would be very interresting if you could instead do
something
like this in a JSF/Facelet application:
<x:pdf value="#{someBinaryDocument}">
<x:page number="1">
<x:outputText value="#{someBean.property}">
<some classical JSF converter>
</x:outputText>
</x:page>
</x:pdf>
I know how to create binary output from a JSF component (get
outpustream, set headers, set responseComplete())
Oracle ADF has a telnet renderer, i suppose there could exist
some PDF
based renderers out there. Interest would be to generate PDF
output as
easily as html output. It does not seems so difficult to implement
a few
PDF based JSF components using itext. However, i'd like to prevent
stupid double work if this stuff already exist somewhere.
Anyone know of existing library for this?
