libkreport3-4 - 3.1.0-2 main

The KReport framework implements reporting functionality for creation
of reports in MS Access style. They are also similar to SAP Crystal Reports
and FileMaker reports.
.
Reports can be created interactively and programmatically. They can be
previewed on screen, printed, and saved in a variety of formats such as
HTML, PDF and OpenDocument.
.
Reports of this kind offer a way to view, format, and summarize the
information. For example a simple report of contact phone numbers can be
prepared, or a more complex report on sales for different products, regions,
and periods of time.
.
A report is often filled with information from a database. There are many
use cases:
* The data can be displayed, summarized, sorted and grouped
* Totals can be computed and displayed
* Single or multiple records of data can be placed on a page
* Details for individual data records can be placed in a layout
* Labels can be created
* The various report sections, such as title, header or footer, can be sized
to suit
* Reports can be generated on demand, thus eliminating saving them in files
for further use
