If you can rely on Excel or Word being installed on the client computer then you can create such template with Excel or Word. You can then fill it and convert it to PDF with XLUtils.

Have you tried jFX8Print

B4j Print JavaFX8

Here is a B4j library written in B4j to access the full Printer modules provided with JavaFX8. Full source code is available. At it's simplest, you can print a node using: Dim P As Printer = Printer_Static.GetDefaultPrinter Dim PJ As PrinterJob = PrinterJob_Static.CreatePrinterJob2(P)...

This will print any pane. You can create the layout as you want and then print directly.

Yes, I've trying with this but there was many issues:

1 - The page printed are crop, I dont know how to set this to fit the page.
2 - All the labels and buttons that are in the pane appear with border in the print.
3 - I want to assing an automatic name and page setup tu the file, Idont want any dialog boxes.

Please if you have a solution for this, can you write an idea?
