I finally find somebody that is using pdflib also. We've used this module for over 2 1/2 years on a pretty large shipping company's site. Back then there was no real pdf perl module, so pdflib was what we used. It was pretty easy and very stable. In fact, so stable, that we're still using version 2.0 and they're now up to 4.x. No sense changing what isn't broken.

Thanks for the node.

Update

Forgot to mention the use of XML is great. Starting to make me rethink our site design now. :)

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
