[Kaustubh G Sharma]

yup ...well actually right now I am only creating single report at a time....now my new task is to create multipul reports which will generated on one place while selecting an option ....right now when i click my export button I've got only a single report and a pop-up to save the file now when I click of this export button at this event I've to map this different-different reports and when I got this pop-up(if no pop-up to save some it will work also just save all files on some define place) for saving the file all of bunch of report got save there....

No my problem is 1). How to create more than one report on single time.....
2)How to save all files .....

hope you got the idea about my problem now..

Thanks

Well, i do not have much idea if it's possible using JR. but what you can do is.
1) Generate all the report on server OR generate reports on server which user wants to export.
2) When user clicks on export button,
3) Create a zip file containing all the reports.
4) Send the zip file using ServletOutputStream.

Hello Kaustubh

I am wondering what framework and server you are using. For example, are you doing all this in a JSP or a JSF application?

[Kaustubh G Sharma]

Hi bilal thanks for reply actually I am using struts framework and for making reports I am totally using jasper report...

there you go

 
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfCopyFields;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfReader;

public class Concatenate2PDF {
    public static void main(String[] args)throws Exception {
         System.out.println("Concatenate Two PDF");        
           PdfReader reader1 = new PdfReader("FIRSTPDF.pdf");
           PdfReader reader2 = new PdfReader("SECONDPDF.pdf");
           PdfReader reader2 = new PdfReader("THIRDPDF.pdf");
           PdfCopyFields copy = new PdfCopyFields(new FileOutputStream("concatenatedPDF.pdf"));
            copy.addDocument(reader1);
            copy.addDocument(reader2);
            copy.addDocument(reader3);
            copy.close();
    }
}

While that will work, it's not the best way to do it.
Please read Chapter 6 of "iText in Action".
I suggest you use PdfCopy or PdfSmartCopy depending on how "different" the documents are.
