pdf and excel support in seam

[pbadiger]

Hi All,

Did anyone tried using jboss-seam-pdf.jar and jboss-seam-excel.jar tag libs for pdf and excel support in JSF? I found that some functionalities for pdf from itext are not been implemented in seam tag lib.

Same for excel package, i was not able to find any document on this to start.

Could anyone tell me, what is the plan to enhance these packages and also for support document on these?

thanks in advance.

Yes, I have tried the Excel package ;)

What tags are missing for the excel lib? Could you at at least provide some examples?

Hi Daniel,

I started working with pdf package, the excel package i didnt try till now as there are no supporting document for this.

For PDF i went through the seam source and found that missing functionalities like border, background colour for table etc.

It would be nice if you provide me any information for the excel package.

Thanks.

Well, reading the reference documentation might be a start. Chapter 19.
