PDF::Writer vs Ruport

I have some simple PDF documents (a receipt and several 1-2 page business letters) that I need to generate from a typical rails application. As my client has a low volume site and very limited server resources I would prefer to use a native Ruby implementation rather than messing around with Jasper/JVM/etc.

I have spent the day looking at Ruport and PDF::Writer. For my simple needs I'm not feeling the Ruport love. I would love to hear from anyone who has had a similar decision to make. Thanks.

Ruport currently uses PDF::Writer to generate its PDF output.

Sadly for both Ruport and everyone else, I'm no longer able to support PDF::Writer and have yet to find a maintainer.
