How To Create a Multi Page Report Using Ireport 4.1.3?

Question

I would like to create a Multi page report(PDF format) where only some of the pages have dynamic data values to be inserted . While many of the pages have data which is static in nature. How can such a report be created using Ireport. Suggestions, Pointers welcome.

Any suggestions for Good practices would be great to hear.

Thanks.

Answer 1

I cannot see any reason why not.

Try

• Markup set to html for text field/static text
• Subreports for complex sections
• Datasets for charts/tables that require their own data query
• Keep together / Start on new page for Bands to control page breaks

These suggestions are only based on what I guess you may have in a long report
