a form in a pdf ? Eek ok FDF , do you mean FPDF ? Frankly i find XSL:FO
easier to code than native FPDF :) Anyway I have started on the FOP
examples on the apache site and cooking up a java app that can spit out
the byteArray to the screen as standard out :) It'll do similar to how
the servlet does it and how php does readfile, dont know of any memory
issues as I am totally java green :)
