but i need something that will be fast so c++ libharu is good but iText i know its more rebust and complete .
are those assumption true?

Answer 1

If it's a server, I'd go with java, it will be easier to deploy to the server.

Answer 2

If you will use iText will be easier. However, if it will be for heavy use the consumption of memory will be a big problem.

Lib haru is harder to use, but you control the memory and reuse it because it is "c++".

Answer 3

You can also create PDFs via Fop from XML.
