Webscript to generate HTML and render it as pdf

[shikarishambu]

Hi,
I would like to use Alfresco as the store for our communication templates (Freemarker). I want to create a webscript that my web application will use to
pass data to the html.ftl and have it render it as html and pdf. Is it possible to use Alfresco's capabilities to render content as pdf from within a webscript?

TIA

You could render as XML instead, and use XSL and XSL-FO to render from XML to HTML & PDF.

Yes, I could. I want to see if there is a way to use the render functions within Alfresco to do it. This way I am not repeating this render stuff everywhere and Alfresco becomes my master document delivery service
