Create PDF files using iText and apache speed template (.vm)

What is the general workflow for creating a PDF file using iText and the Apache Velocity (.vm) speed template file in Java?

I am interested in knowing steps like: parse template file, putting a Java object in context and the steps that you need to follow to create pdf, etc.

I know this is a very simple question. But I can not find a single example of this type on the Internet. I found XDocReport , but I am also interested in finding out other alternatives.

Please help me with some sample project link, or at least steps to get started.

First we use the freemarker template to generate the html file, and then render the html into a pdf file using IItextRender. Finally, we can view the pdf file in the browser, there are some very useful javascript tools called pdfjs. Perhaps you can try.
