HTML, Excel and PDF Report Output Formats

A report is generated as a PDF by default. The service also supports HTML and Excel output. To specify a different format, add a type parameter to the HTTP request. HTML output can be requested by adding a 'type=html' parameter to the URL:

http://localhost/servlet/PDFService?templateFile=report1.srt&type=html

Supported HTML Output Formats

PDF: PDF output (Default) HTML: HTML output xls: Excel output with pagination
xls_sheet: Excel output without pagination rtf: Rich Text format output  

If the report is large and HTML output is desired, it is possible to avoid generating one large HTML page for the entire report. Instead, the generated HTML file can be broken up into pages and viewed one page at a time. To do so, specify the 'page' parameter to be a valid page number of the generated HTML file.
