PDF Generation from X[HT]ML
#1

[eluser]Aea[/eluser]
I'm working on a relatively complicated project that is required to create PDF outputs, I'm currently using HTML2PDF to convert an XHTML file into a PDF. HTML2PDF is supposed to support the creation of multipage documents from a single file by using CSS properties such as page-break-after and page-break-inside. Unfortunately it will only generate the first page properly, the second page will be cropped missing an entire inch. This unfortunately means that I have to generate a PDF for every single page and then splice these together.

The other downside is that a modest 24 page document takes about 180MB of RAM to generate, eats up most of a core and takes about three minutes. What I'm looking for is a free or moderately priced PDF generation solution that can push files out properly and hopefully not start bringing down servers when ten users decide to do it at once.

Anybody have any suggestions? It doesn't have to be PHP, as long as I can interact with it via a wrapper or through the command line.
