I'm using IText libray for do a PDF. This works, but I need generate the same document, but this time in Excel (xls). There's a way to convert a PDF using GWT or IText? If not, how can I do this? I searched and I found a library called JExcel. What is better?
Thanks for attention and help!

Everyone, I have some 10 pdf file (No Tables in this files) and i need to convert to Excel.
Is there a way to convert to Excel?
By Googling, Using Apache Poi/aspose we can achieve this. but I am not getting proper way(Code link) for this.
How can I do this using Apache POI/aspose. Any help, suggestion is highly appreciated. Thanks
It seems that the only possible way to do this is using Aspose. Thought we can read the PDF using PDFBox kind of library and write to the excel using apache POI or etc will break the formatting. If we want to convert PDF to Excel with the formatting we need to use aspose.

This is a commercial product but you can use the trial version to test your requirement.

I have a Java application that uses Jasper to create docx. Jasper uses poi to export to docx. There are a few issues with the documents generated with poi and I was wondering if there are any good alternatives to poi. Apart from modifying the source code of Jasper, is there a way to link the new jar to Jasper so that it uses it instead of poi? If i write my own docx exporter can it be easily linked so that Jasper will use it? Does anybody know an article that explains how to link a custom jar (or an alternative jar) to Jasper?
In this post, it appears the author is converting Jasper's XHTML output into docx format using docx4j. Perhaps that results in a 'better' docx, without the effort of -rewriting Jasper's docx exporter?
Is there a way to convert pptx to an image? My aim is to finally generate an PDF file.
I try with Aspose but there are some issue. With Apache POI, it don't support PPTX. Any other idea?
There is a PPTX SVGExporter in DocX4j that may help you, in conjonction with Batik (from SVVG to PDF)
Note : I've not tested it
You may be able to write a small native library that Java calls to do the operation. I'm pretty sure you can use a .NET language or C++ to connect to powerpoint and have it "print" to either PDF or some other usable format. Here is a small sample application which does some automation.
Is it possible to do .xlsx to PDF conversions using DOCX4J?
If so, could anyone provide me with some samples please?
If it isn't possible, what alternatives would you suggest?
I don't think you can use DOCX4j to convert your xlsx to PDF.
You just can use DOCX4j to manipulate Excel xlsx, but not PDF. So you also need a java lib for manipulating PDF, I recommond iText
I need to convert an excel spreadsheet to PDF file. I looked for in the Web and I found that the best way to do this is using OpenOffice API, but it is not free.
Someone know any open source library for doing this?
Any examples code is appreciating
Apache POI can read Excel. iText can write PDF.
