hi, everyone,
i have googled around for some pdf generators. Found 1) PDF::Writer which is a little dated 2) Rupdf (http://scoop.simplyexcited.co.uk//2007/12/15/rupdf-simple- ruby-pdf-rails-plugin/ and http://agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/rupdf) - it's a little dated. Last revision was on 15th of Dec, 2007.
Any recommendations for pdf generators?
thank you

If you can afford it, PrinceXML is awesome. Also see: http://sublog.subimage.com/2007/05/29/html-css-to-pdf-using-ruby-on-rails or http://github.com/mbleigh/princely

i did before i posted. thanks
Looks good as i had a quick glance at the sites. Hmm PrinceXML . We’ll read.
keep 'em recommendations flowing in, guys and gals 
wkhtmltopdf: Google Code Archive - Long-term storage for Google Code Project Hosting. Rails plugin: http://github.com/mileszs/wicked_pdf
you can generate PDF from HTML templates with CSS styling
Indeed a very promising project, but way behind on PrinceXML, so it depends on your budget and requirements in the end which one you choose. Also wkhtmltopdf is very memory hungry as far as I remember. That said, it’s a pretty active project, so it’s definitely something to keep an eye on.
Best regards
