El único libro que necesitas 2008-09-30
Excelente libro trata cada tema que puedes encontrarte en el iReport, claro muestra ejemplos sencillos y clásicos pero te da las herramientas necesarias para que tú experimentes por tu cuenta.
100% RECOMENDADO


To new and experienced users. 2008-03-18
The book is great, helped me learn new techniques to use and to use new tools, such as graphics or subreports.
I recommend to new and experienced users.


A Complete Waste Of Time 2008-03-11
This was a complete waste of $50. I am a Crystal Reports designer, and wanted a resource that would bring me up to speed with the expression language. This book is 300 pages of screen shots with no examples of input! I don't need to know how to navigate the UI (I learned that in much less time than reading the book would require.) Instead, the critical information - writing conditional expressions, building parameters, creating running total fields - was omitted.

If you have any comfort level with report writing, save your money or buy a reference guide to Java or Groovy.
