Good Call
The 39.95 pricetag + VAT would be worth it if I could print FOP standards
based document
From what I could surmise
iText allows printing of an instantiated JFreeChart img (jpg/gif) via this
construct
com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfContentByte.addImage(Image.getInstance("watermark.jpg"));
Would you know how these technologies can be deployed to output Adobe
version 1.3 FOP formatted documents ?
Thanks,
Martin-

Subject: Re: report creation architecture
Hi,
in my report generating web aplication I use JasperReports to make Pdf
and Excel reports. The aplication doesnt store generated reports
anywhere - it generates reports on demand and just sends them as the
response (or maybe as part of the response, I am not sure yet) .
That means that you dont need to store the reports, unless you want to
do that for some other reason.
Now the tricky part (at least for me at this point) are report images
generated with JFreeChart, that are part of HTML reports or aplication
pages. You can't send images inside HTML (not 100% sure about that
yet, but pretty sure), so you have to store them somewhere where they
can be reached trough an url and reference them inside your HTML
report or page. For that you have to use some report and image naming
scheme - like a serial id that you increase by 1 for each report.

Hi friends
I need help with a design question (not directly connected to struts):
I have a J2EE application that works on an application server
(WEBSPHERE) and also a database server.
When clients run requests for various reports - where should the report
files be created?
I don't want the files to be on the clients PCs. Do I need another
server for the users output/input files?
Also, can anyone direct me to a good article / example for report
creation with Struts?
Thanks a lot
Rivka
