Use the Rtf exporter:

 

JRRtfExporter exporter = new JRRtfExporter(); exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.JASPER_PRINT, jPrint); exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.OUTPUT_FILE, fileName);

exporter.exportReport();

 

make sure the poi.jar library is on the classpath.

 

Hope that helps.

Hi Lee,

 

i tried your code (using JR2.0.5 and iText1.4.5) but get the following exception:

 

Code:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String
	at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.export.JRRtfExporter.exportReport(JRRtfExporter.java:192)
	at com.openjades.crm.documents.generator.CVGenerator.generate(CVGenerator.java:38)
	at com.openjades.crm.documents.generator.CVGenerator.main(CVGenerator.java:23)

 

CVGenerator.java:

Code:

[code] JasperPrint jPrint = JasperFillManager.fillReport(resourcesPath + "cv.jasper",new HashMap()); JRRtfExporter exporter = new JRRtfExporter(); exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.JASPER_PRINT, jPrint); exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.OUTPUT_FILE, outPath + "CV_1234.rtf"«»); exporter.exportReport();

 

Any idea what causes the ClassCastException?

Thanks.

I see - it must be

 

exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.OUTPUT_FILE, new File(fileName));

[conradt]

I see - it must be new File(fileName) instead of just fileName:

 

Code:

exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.OUTPUT_FILE, new File(fileName));
