2002 JI Open Discussion Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 By: Honghai Zhang - haroldzhang how to use jasper reports to merge reports 2003-12-03 14:07 Hello, I need to use jasper report to write multi page forms into a PDF file. Each page has different contents, meaning each page has contents that come from different tables in the Database. And each page has its own report fields just like the forms you can fill out but the form will be populated by data from the database. I am thinking to generate one report for each page of form and merge them into a one final PDF file. Is it the right way to do this? How to merge several reports into one PDF file if that is? Thanks By: Teodor Danciu - teodord RE: how to use jasper reports to merge report 2003-12-04 01:17 Hi, There are various ways to achieve this and the issue has been discussed several times before on the forums. One solution is to use subreports inside a master report. A second solution would be to have multiple reports and to merge the generated documents. You can merge either the resulting JasperPrint objects by transfering pages from one object to another, or to use iText to merge the final PDF files. There is a proposed patch related to this here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=779751&group_id=36382&atid=416705 I hope this helps.
