HTML contents view in PDF Report

[icdlismail]

Dear All,

I am facing a problem while creating pdf report from html contents. I am using java bean as a datasource. More specifically, My Java bean contains html formated text as String property. After run this report, it will show html code in Jasper Viewer/PDF Viewer.

I am new in Jasper report. I don't know how to parse it as like JEditorpane/ JTextPane do. Please help me in this issue.

Thank you
Ismail

Hi,

 

Put the HTML content inside a text field that has markup="html". Check the /demo/samples/markup sample provided with the JR project package.

But note we are talking only about formatted text, not about layout or images.

If you want complex HTML, then you would have to write a custom component of your own to achieve this.

 

I hope this helps.

Teodor

Hi,

 

As I said, the markup text fields only deal with formatted text and not layout. HTML tables are about layout. They have cells, borders, etc.

 

I have created a tracker for this feature here:

http://jasperforge.org/projects/jasperreports/tracker/view.php?id=4256

 

Several people have expressed interest in working on such a new feature, so posting comments on this tracker would help you get in touch and make it happen.

 

Thank you,

Teodor
