Repgen

Repgen is a general purpose report generation engine built on top of JasperReports library.

• The internal database contains the model definitions and dynamic content (model-name == template-name).
• Using JasperStudio tool you can create templates containing both report style and static content.
• All reports are built by a multi-threaded scheduler, and they can be rebuilt at any time.
• The engine supports embedded fonts (PDF/A spec) for optimal rendering on every system.
• The REST API can be used to request new report builds, search and download generated reports.
