Flying Saucer (also called XHTML renderer) is a pure Java library for rendering XML, XHTML, and CSS 2.1 content.

It is intended for embedding web-based user interfaces into Java applications, but cannot be used as a general purpose web browser since it does not support HTML.

Thanks to its capability to save rendered XHTML to PDF (using iText), it is often used as a server side library to generate PDF documents. It has extended support for print-related things like pagination and page headers and footers.

History

Flying Saucer was started in 2004 by Joshua Marinacci,[1] who was later hired by Sun Microsystems. It is still an open-source project unrelated to Sun.

Sun Microsystems once planned to include Flying Saucer in F3,[2] the scripting language based on the Java platform which later became JavaFX Script.

Compliance

Flying saucer has very good XHTML markup and CSS 2.1 standards compliance, even in complex cases.[3][4][5]
