Built on top of the Big Faceless PDF & Graph Libraries, the Report Generator combines these features and wraps an XML parser around them. Using JSP, ASP, XSL, or similar, creating dynamic PDF documents directly from a database is now as easy as HTML.

BFO's Java Reporting tool provides some of the most comprehensive and advanced XML to PDF conversion on the market.As the XML is based on XHTML and uses CSS the learning curve is drastically reduced - report designers don't have to learn an entirely new grammar, so are up and running quicker.
The "two-stage" system of first generating the XML and then converting it to PDF means you can generate XML with any tool, although JSPs are the natural choice. This means you have access to the full range of Tag Libraries designed for JSP. Database connectivity is all taken care of before the XML conversion begins, so you can use whatever method you prefer to get your information from the backend into XML. The whole process is remarkably simple.

Major Features:

1. HTML-style Tables auto-sized nested tables with full control over padding, margins and borders
2. Use cascading CSS2 stylesheets to control look and feel
3. Create inline graphs and charts with XML, direct from the database
4. Includes a servlet and a servlet filter for simple generation of PDFs from XML or JSP pages.
5. Auto pagination of content with page headers and footers
6. Familiar HTML syntax < a >, < ul >, < p >, < table >, < td > and so on simpler and faster than FOP
7. All the features of the PDF library Unicode support, Encryption, TrueType fonts, Barcodes and more

Enhancements:

• No changes to the Report Generator layer
• Built with PDF library 2.11.6, Graph Library 1.1.6

Requirements:

• Java 2 Standard Edition Runtime Environment
• SAX parser

Big Faceless Java PDF Library 2.11.6 offers users an efficient Java class library for creating PDF documents.

The Big Faceless Java PDF Library is a Java class library for creating PDF documents. The Extended Edition of Big Faceless Java PDF Library offers the ability to create and edit AcroForms, PDFs answer to the HTML form.

Like HTML forms, PDF forms can contain text boxes, radio buttons, and can call JavaScript functions. The Extended Edition also includes a PDF reader for importing and editing, along with FDF support and verification for Digital Signatures.
Both variations offer full Unicode support, encryption, embedded TrueType and Type1 fonts, barcodes, hyperlinks, spot and calibrated color. Advanced text layout engine enables complex HTML styles. It is small, fast, easy to use, and 100% pure Java.

BFO's PDF Library provides unparalleled implementation flexibility and reliability for the developer. It's scalable, thread-safe and extremely fast, having been honed over the years, and runs on any Java platform from the humble PC up to Mainframes.

The API has been designed so you don't need to know the PDF specification in order to create PDF's. We hide as much of the gory details as possible but still give you almost complete control over the PDF itself. Where possible standard Java classes are reused - for example the pages are stored in a java.util.List, which can be manipulated any way you like (so moving pages from one document to another is a breeze). This means an API which is smaller and easier to remember.

Major Features:

1. Transparent Unicode support - create documents in Arabic, Russian or Japanese as easily as English.
2. TrueType and Type1 fonts, with subsetting for smaller files. Great for OCR
3. PDF Encryption, for password-protected documents (40 and 128 bit RC4 or AES)
4. Embed JPEG, PNG, GIF, TIFF or java.awt.Image images, or add Barcodes directly to the PDF.
5. Use Spot colors, calibrated ICC profiles and other advanced colorspace
6. Add HTML-style Hyperlinks to text or images
7. Process 1000+ words a second with kerning, ligatures, justification and "curly quotes" for legibility.
8. Simplify complex document creation by defining and applying "Styles"
9. Full support for PDF features like bookmarks, compression and document meta-information
10. Non-linear creation of documents - pages can be created and edited in any order
11. PDF Library Extended Edition
    • The extended edition of the Java PDF Library offers additional features:
    • Load and edit existing PDF documents, as templates or merge with others
    • Create and edit interactive Forms, or "AcroForm"
    • Digitally sign documents, or verify existing digital signatures
12. Java PDF Viewer
    • On top of the Extended edition, the Viewer Extension can be used to display PDFs:
    • Swing component for displaying PDF documents
    • Convert PDF to TIFF (or any other bitmap format)
    • Extract and index text and images from PDF documents, including integration with Apache Lucene
    • Print PDF documents, including support for annotations and other PDF features not supported by Java 1.5 printing.
    • Pre-flight new or existing PDFs against PDF/X-1a, PDF/X-3 or PDF/A-1b.

Enhancements:

• All BFO warning (and debug, if enabled) messages are now logged using log4j if available, or java.util.logging.* if not.
• Large synchronization audit fixed some issues when reading from one PDF in multiple threads, particularly when using the viewer.
• Fixed problem that could result in corruption when repeatedly saving a PDF containing compressed XRef tables and multiple revisions.

JGraph Layout Pro is the next generation of Java Graph Layout engine designed for optimal performance with the JGraph core. JGraph Layout Pro project has a flexibility and simple design, enabling you to use circular, tree and force-directed layouts with ease in your JGraph application.
Layout Pro comes with a developers guide and an example applet that demonstrates features such as auto-layout, collapsing/expanding of grouped cells, graph morphing and selective layouting of sub-graphs. Also available is a webstart version.
JGraph Layout Pro provides you with a fully supported layout code base that is actively developed and maintained by the core JGraph development team. Using Layout Pro gives you the added confidence of active bug resolution and developer documentation.
Main features:
- Functionality Pro layouts are designed to use the full set of JGraph features such as partial graph views, grouping, animating graphs as well as all the new optimal API calls available in the JGraph core.
- Documentation and source Layout Pro comes with full source and an up-to-date developers application note.
- Performance Designed from the base up for speed, the Pro layouts make auto-layouting possible on even larger graphs. The Layout Pro tree algorithm is 6-times faster over 25,000 nodes than its JGraph Addons equivalent, even with its additional features, such as support for collapsing tree branches.
- Stability The layout architecture for Layout Pro is based around the principle of complete flexibility. Not only does this help you achieve the functionality you want, also it provides you a solid API designed for stability and minimal changes between new versions. This means less migration effort between releases, so you can confidently upgrade.
- Value Layout Pro represents the best value for money for graph layout software. Combined with the supreme value of the core JGraph library, it makes an unbeatable combination.
Enhancements:
- The functionality for laying out nested groups has been fixed.
- The layout inter-rank spacing calculation in the hierarchical layout has been improved for a more closely spaced result.
- The boundary of the graph now includes edge control points, since it was previously possible to draw a graph where the control points were off the edge of the graph.

Sketsa SVG Editor 6.0 / 6.1 Beta 1 provides you with a professional and powerful vector drawing application which is based on SVG. Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is a graphics format and technology based on XML developed by W3C. With Sketsa, you can create vector graphics that can be scaled and printed at any resolution, without losing detail or clarity. You also get instant visual feedback on what you changed.

Sketsa features various tools for optimizing content creation, giving designers unsurpassed support for creativity. These tools include property palette, DOM editor, source editor, resources editor, SVG specific shape tools, transformation tools, and additional illustration tools.

Major Features:

1. SVG Native File Format and produces very clean XML code: Sketsa uses SVG as its native file format. SVG is an open standard language for describing two-dimensional (2D) graphics in XML developed by W3C. As being a XML grammar lets SVG benefit from the various XML tools that make it so easy to manipulate, generate, search and edit SVG files. Sketsa also produces very clean SVG XML code. It is not using any proprietary namespaces.
2. Tool Palette, Canvas, and Visual Design Tool: It features various tools for optimizing content creation, giving designers unsurpassed support for creativity. Its visual design tools allows designer to select, draw, and edit objects easily. It support SVG specific shape tools < rect>, < ellipse>, < line>, < polyline>, < polygon>, < text> and support additional illustration tools such as Pencil tool for freeform shape and Pen tool for curve shape. It also support transform type: rotate, skew, scale, and translate. Designer could easily and visually create or edit SVG artwork.
3. Object Property: Designer can quickly inspect and change object properties in one centralized location. The Object Properties contains several categories: Geometry, Stroke, Fill, and Filter. In each of the category you can change the value and automatically shown in the canvas. Depending on the object selected, it allow designer to change the geometry, stroke, fill, or filter effect properties such as geometry attributes, color, stroke width, opacity, fill rule, etc
4. Resource Editor: The resource editor is a centralized location of resources for the current or selected SVG document. It allows you to create Linear Gradient, Radial Gradient, and Filter. This is the place where object reuse is achieved. For example: Gradient or Filter element which could be applied to other SVG elements.
5. Source Editor with syntax highlighting: Although Sketsa allows designer to visually create and edit SVG artwork without worrying about underlying source code, Sketsa provide access to the underlying SVG source code. The integrated XML text editor allows them to view and edit SVG source code for greater control. It has built in SVG validation to ensure source code change are valid SVG Document.
6. Export to Raster or Bitmap: Sketsa allows you to export SVG artwork into raster image. It support JPEG and PNG format.
7. Plugins Support: Plugins supports allows Sketsa capabilities to be enhanced or extended by various plugins. For example Symbol Library Plugin or Emoticon Symbol.
8. Written in Java: Sketsa is a cross platform application that run on all popular operating systems. It runs on any platform which supports Java 1.4.2 eg: Microsoft Windows, Unix or Linux, etc.

Enhancements: This is a major release with many enhancements.
