[XeTeX] Your advice for generation of tables/forms with decorations?

[Kārlis Repsons]

What would people of this list recommend on this topic:

How to generate a table, which has numerous custom decorations? I mean, some 
external, curved frame lines and similar internals, also a bit of embedded 
graphics...
Perhaps using some EPS-converted graphics, but maybe also writing 
with something like MetaPost, not sure.
I also wonder about pdf forms: could those be used to enter part of the output 
data and calculate the rest within pdf, then print?

Just where to start and what is known to be of a good use...
