See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/pdf.html

for the various tools you can use. Normally PDF files are created
long in advance, not dynamically. Your response time for a
dynamically created one will be less than stellar.

Hi,

We are creating PDF files on-the-fly in Servlets, up to a few hundret
pages in a few seconds. It works fine.

We are using iText, which IMHO is the best tool for that (although it
has some disadvantages when you go into detail).

Ciao,
