Damn I saw that there is some JasperReports in OFBiz but it is the enemy as I am involved in JFreeReport.

Hi Jacopo, I would told you the following things: - use a reporting framework and not something based on fop and xsl which is realy power consuming not itext directly. I would use Pentaho Reporting (aka JFreeReport http://reporting.pentaho.org/) on which the new version will be heavily multi-threaded and which support xml templates. PS: I am also involved in this project. - I would not use the single document definition that is already in OFBiz. It will restrict it so much later if you want to make groups, ... Cédric, -----Message d'origine----- De : Jacopo Cappellato [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Envoyé : mardi 13 février 2007 09:20 À : dev@ofbiz.apache.org Objet : How to implement bulk printing of documents? What is the best/easiest way (if possible) to implement the bulk printing of a set of PDF reports that share the same template (aka screen widget definition)? For example, generate a big PDF with all the purchase orders in the created approved status; the pdf can then be printed and so that the purchase orders are sent by mail to the suppliers. Ideally I'd like to reuse the existing screen definition that defines the single document and just iterate over it and put the output into a single PDF file. Any hints/ideas on how to implement this? Another interesting option would be that of bulk sending by email a set of documents (for example one email per supplier with the attached purchase order), but this is not very important for me at the moment, just one more wish in my list.
