Pentaho Reporting

Welcome to the community home for Pentaho Reporting Community Edition (CE) which includes the Pentaho Report Designer, Pentaho Reporting Engine, Pentaho Reporting SDK and the common reporting libraries shared with the entire Pentaho BI Platform. This suite of open-source reporting tools allows you to create relational and analytical reports from a wide range of data-sources and output types including: PDF, Excel, HTML, Text, Rich-Text-File and XML and CSV outputs of your data. The OpenFormula/Excel-formula expressions help you to create more dynamic reports exactly the way you want them. The open architecture and powerful API and extension points make sure this system can grow with your requirements.

Community Edition is self supported open source software. An Enterprise Edition (EE) of Pentaho Reporting including technical support and managed upgrades is also available. For more information about EE, sample reports and datasheets, visit Pentaho Reporting EE on Pentaho's corporate site.
