Hmm, I've only ever done fairly basic print style sheets myself...

Even with the right CSS hints ?

I can see data entry reqs, for instance, where you might want to let a user
print a report or order summary out off line...

You have to send the data from the server to the client, so why not send a PDF
report as well ?

Actually that sounds pretty good, and I would prefer an open source
solution as well.
Regarding the strict setup requirements: using a ClearBI trial I
found it extremely difficult adapting a copy of our already existing
Flex 2 application's environment to meet the needed requirements.
Almost
Actually for now I'll probably be resorting to PDF generation only
and *maybe* direct printing using a regular PrintDataGrid. FlexReport
just seems to have too many issues and I'm tired of addressing them.
Probably best to use a Java pdf generator, I don't see the use in
sending all data over t
I understand that a "ready to go" solution, that requires minimal
configuration/customization, will only meet a small number of
developer's needs. I would imagine that most people, after getting
such a ready to use solution working, would then start extending,
overriding, and adding their own c
Well you're right that I *could* probably meet my basic requirements
simply using pdf generation (although it'd be server side/java),
although custom reporting options would still take some work. But
actually showing the user a print preview of what they're going to
see, within the running swf,
The version without plugins (pure AIR application with UI editor, but you
can use Flex or vi to edit reports in source ) is coming this summer. I will
be showing the final release on 8/19 in NYC (
http://www.eventbrite.com/event/126384018) among other reporting goodies
like generating complete repo
Well, I know we'd be willing to purchase a reporting tool for a cost
on par with the cost of Flex Builder. And it wouldn't need to be
a "catch all, generate all" sophisticated solution like ClearBI.
I'd be happy with just an SWC reporting library. Just add some
component(s) from the SWC, setup
So you're saying that others are using 3rd party tools for reports?
Unless we can find one that lets us somehow load a swf in our Flex
app (doubt it), that option stinks because you'll basically be using
an entirely different application for reporting!
