Flying Saucer Description

A free XML/XHTML/CSS 2.1 render library Flying Saucer is a pure-Java and free library for rendering arbitrary well-formed XML (or XHTML) using CSS 2.1 for layout and formatting, output to Swing panels, images and PDF. Here are some key features of "Flying Saucer": · 100% Java XML+CSS layout engine with Java2D (Swing) and native PDF output. SWT coming soon. · Strong support for the CSS 2.1 specification including extensions to better support paged media. · Good performance. · Support for XHTML including forms. · Arbitrary elements may be replaced with custom content. · Limited support for dynamic effects (for example, the :hover pseudo-class and links) · Some support for PDF specific features (for example, bookmarks and internal links). More coming soon. Limitations: · Resource loading is single threaded and occurs inline with layout. · Support for XHTML is weaker than XML+CSS (for example, not all XHTML presentational attributes are supported nor are X/HTML features like the element). · No support for legacy HTML (although there are several open source Java HTML cleaners of varying quality available). · No support for incremental layout (applies to screen media only).
