Display tag has the feature to export tyable data in excel or pdf. JQgrid is also used for listing purposes. But I am not sure if it supports exporting.
So, what is the most feasable way to export large data in excel or pdf in java based web applications?
Are there any other tools available?
For Excel you can just export a CSV file - but there's also Apache POI which you could use. For PDF there's iText but be aware that the (free) licence for iText is very restrictive.
