Exporting the result from a JReport Web window

You can export the report result from a JReport Web window to other format by taking the following steps:

1. Click Menu > File > Export (or the Export button on the Standard toolbar) to display the Export dialog. See the dialog.

   

2. From the Select Report Result Format drop-down list, select a format in which to export the result: HTML, PDF, Excel, Text, RTF, XML, PostScript, or DHTML Result.
3. If you check the Enable Style Group option, select a style to apply to the report result from the Style Group drop-down list.

   This option is disabled by default, which means the style group property defined for specific exporting format in JReport Designer will be applied to export the report result to that format. For example, if you set the HTML Style Group property of a report to Classic in the Report Inspector, when you specify to export the report result to HTML format, the Classic style group will be applied to the report result. You can refer to Style Group for Exporting in the JReport Designer User's Guide for details.

   When this option is enabled, you are allowed to select another style group to export report result in the specified format from the Style Group drop-down list. However, the style set here is a dynamic style and therefore cannot work in the report section that has already been set a static style because of its lower priority. When the None item is selected in the list, no dynamic style will be applied when exporting the report in the format. If one of the other styles is selected, it will be used as dynamic style group of the exported result.

4. Specify the destination of the result:
   • Save to Version System: The result will be saved as a result version in JReport Enterprise Server's versioning system.
   • Save to File System: The web browser will prompt you to save the result file to a specified folder. If selected, you need to provide a name for the result file in the File Name field.
   • View Report Result: The result will be directly opened in the web browser if the format is supported by a plug-in of the web browser; otherwise it will prompt you to save the result file.
5. Set the options for the selected format (for details about settings of each format, see Export dialog).
6. Click OK to confirm.
