This is more of a HTML issue.  If you have frames you'll probably have to
make a separate "print" page for users.  I would use PDFs only if normal
HTML output does not support all the formatting you want.

Subject: Report displaying and printing in JSP's


> I'm interested in knowing what options other people have used
successfully,

jsp/servlet

looked

that
