If you have TeX/Latex installed you can create the Latex source file
with your program, and let TeX process it, then show the resulting PDF
or Postscript to the user.

Could I have some idea as to what you are using to generate reports?
Do you use internal report generators like :LazReport or external
ones? LazReport seems to be an incomplete implementation of FreeReport
which is also way outdated. Can some one please give me some hints.
Thanks,

There is also PowerPDF, but I think this would be useful only through
code as the designer seems built more for static pages. But through
code, seems to work like TCanvas from the little I've played with it.
I've been toying around with writing a simple report generator.
Report.AddDatasource(myObjectList);
Report.AddDetail;
Report.Detail.AddView('SalesTotal', otText, myObjectList, 'MyField');
I realize there is a lot involved with writing even a simple report
engine, but I wonder if much of the work can be leveraged by just
outputting to ODF format.
