Working on building out a Web2Print product I need some kind of editor that will allow a user to manipulate graphics and ultimately generate a PDF. There are plenty of HTML 2 PDF APIs available but I was hoping someone might have experience with something a little more integrated and suited for dealing with graphics/fonts/text?
In PHP the best opensource option is TCPDF http://www.tcpdf.org/
I wanted to answer this and update everyone on the solutions that I found. Through the Magento extension store I was able to find several commercial (although still very reasonably priced) solutions:
http://www.zetaprints.com/ and http://layoutbuddy.com/ look like the most full featured and supported (as well as no up-front licensing.)
Thanks for all of the responses!

I am currently trying to parse the semantic structure of a PDF file. I believe the metadata added to make PDFs accessible is the correct way to go about it, but I can't find a library that will handle it cleanly.
I've tried PDFLib TET on iOS but I can't get it to open certain test documents and the error it returns is too obscure to be Googleable.
Are there any other libraries that do the same?
I'd have a look at the pCOS-Library (also from http://pdflib.com). For use in PHP there would be an alternative you could have a look at http://www.setasign.com/. They might have a tool for that purpose.

I'm looking for a free web-based TTS engine, that I may use in a commercial project. I'm not saying there's one, but I hope somebody might know if there was.
Thanks!
The only freely available web-based TTS engine that I am aware of is Google TTS. There is a blog post on how to use it. The problem with using it commercially is that it is not an official Google API (most solutions to use it have been hacked) and therefore subject to change without notice. For a commercial application I would pay for a good TTS engine. Another option is to get a freely available TTS engine and create your own SaaS.

I've been dealing with ebooks lately, and found it quite hard to quickly find conversion scripts to and from the numerous formats available (EPUB, lrf, html, txt, rtf, markdown, and so on).
I thought it might be nice to have one post here with one formats pair and one corresponding tool (eg. Markdown -> Pdf, markdown2pdf) per answer. This should give everyone a neat way to rate the various tools based on their experience, and I think that such a list could be handy for many people.
Hope you like the idea!
I think this might work for you: http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/cli/ebook-convert.html

I read this book:
Head First Object-Oriented Analysis and Design
Now i am looking forward to find a Software that make it easy to collect all my Ideas etc (specific Software for OOA).
At the moment i am using my Whiteboard to collect/design Ideas etc. Afterwards i am taking pictures of it and add text to our Wiki/Trac.
At school, we're using Objecteering, which is easy to use, integrated to Eclipse, but not free.
IMO blank paper is a must, but not always the easier to share and to edit.
Install mediawiki (the stuff that powers wikipedia, don't settle for anything less you will need the full feature set eventually) and put all your ideas in there. This makes it easy to refine them and to improve then as time goes by.

Anyone know of any examples that shows COM programming via Lua? Could require a library.
I need to write some external scripts for Photoshop, so wondering if it's possible with Lua.
Have a look at Lua for Windows. It contains LuaCOM. I haven't tried it myself, though.
As gimpf said, take a look at LuaCOM. You can either get it from its official site, which is the latest version (1.4). Unzip it somewhere and take a look at the folder "Demo", which includes examples for:
ADO
Powerpoint
SAPI (Speech API)
WMI
They are more like test cases than examples but you can get the idea.
You can roll your own system using CInvoke and some custom C/C++ code combined with Lua meta-tables.

From experience though I can't recommend this, it is pretty complicated and requires a lot of effort to get it right and make it bulletproof.
