I'm working on designing a reporting module that will create requested reports in PDF format that can be viewed or printed. We have a tool to generate the PDF called ITEXT. The goal is to make the formatting very flexible to avoid recompiling Java code when they want to modify a header or change a column name and to keep the formatting information in 1 place where several Web Servers can access them without restarting the servers (using Corba).
We have 10 different reports to create but they can choose various paremeter when viewing each report (date range, by family member, etc...).
I have reviewed several third party freeware tools such as JasperReports and DataVision. Just wondering if there are any tools out there that can help (that are free).
