Re: State of client-side pdf file generation

Gwt4air only supported client side file generation inside Adobe AIR or via Flex inside the regular browser.

 And like you see the 2 examples use Flex.
So there is no (and there has never been)  solution that dont require Flex in a regular web app.

But like i said Flash4j 3.1 will implement a  GWT Widget that will help you generate files(Excel + PDF) on the client without Flex (Flash will still be required though).

Thanks for your answer nino.

So did the gwt4air project ever support the pdf-generation from withing GWT projects?
Looking at pages like these ones (below) made me have some hope that it did or does if I use that project's code, even if it's old or outdated:

Yes the most uptodate version is the one on that link.

At the moment clientside file generation is only supported in Flex based projects.
3.1 will have it for  regular  GWT based projects.

Some time ago, the gwt4air project to do client-side file generation was mentioned (see https://groups.google.com/d/topic/google-web-toolkit/nhevJ3qxtMs/discussion). Now emitrom has taken ownership of that project according to the project's website (http://code.google.com/p/gwt4air/).

I'm wondering if the most up-to-date version of this library is now flex4j (http://www.emitrom.com/flex4j).

Can anyone comment on that? I'm interested in pdf file generation on the client side and possibly excel file generation which seems to be supported as well. Alternatively, is anybody aware of other libraries or ways to accomplish the same thing (if you think there's a better way/library)?
