Jasper Words
JasperReports® is ideal out-of-the-box for the dynamic generation of print-ready reports in PDF and Excel. The reporting engine is then usually integrated into a separate application or printouts are generated via the Jasperreports server. More often than not, not all the information required in the report is available when the report is created; before a report can be sent to customers as a PDF, content must be customized or additional information added.
Then Word output is typically the format of choice. Unfortunately, it quickly becomes apparent that the Word export from Jasperreports has some shortcomings: The contents of the report are aligned in nested tables to ensure exact positioning. Headers and footers of the Jasper report are converted to simple table rows and page numbers are converted to static text. Such Word output is actually no longer usable and in no way fulfills the original requirements.
With Jasper Words, we offer an alternative DOCX exporter that exactly meets the requirement for editable Word documents! Jasper Words can be used with the JasperReports® library can be used in your application. However, our Word Exporter also fully supports integration into the Jasperreports Server. Your reports can be saved as editable, dynamic DOCX from both the Report Viewer and Scheduling.
The difference in the output is immediately recognizable:
Our JasperWords document contains:
- Navigable Word table of contents
- Fixed, editable Word headers and footers
- Word fields that enable dynamic page counting
- Free text input fields dynamically adapt to the rest of the document when they are filled in and remain ready for printing at all times
- DOC – Word document
- DOCX – Office Open XML (OOXML) document (standard function)
- RTF – Rich Text Format
- ODT – OpenDocument Text
- HTML – Web page
- TXT – Plain text output
