Then while exploring the options available, I encountered a PDF plugin, which renders gsp page and returns the PDF report. It looked good for the simple reports but may not be a good idea if the report are complex. Then with the help of one of my collegue, we decided to rather generate jasper reports. And as expected, there exists a plugin called &#8216;jasper&#8217; to integrate jasper reports with a grails application, which made my job really easy.<\/p>\n<p>Things looked good, now we were only left with an IDE to rapidly generate jasper reports and then we finally found a tool called IReport. We could make version 2.0.5 working flawlessly with the jasper plugin. <\/p>\n<p>As our reports became more complex and our understanding about jasper reports grew, even things which looked big like required page breaks on certain conditions etc. became really easy to handle with the IReport tool. We could generate a complex jasper report in 3 days time which includes the time taken to get accustomed to iReport and jasper report and its integration. I will soon write more about jasper reports and few changes we made to the jasper plugin to suit our requirements like directly sending emails with jasper report as an attachment&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Cheers!<br \/>\n~~Amit Jain~~<br \/>\namit@intelligrape.com<br \/>\nIntelliGrape Softwares<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/www.tothenew.com\/blog\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In my project we needed to generate certain pdf reports.
