Hi all.

I'm pleased to announce the 1st release of my 2nd open-source project:
PDF::ReportWriter.
It's designed to assist in making high-quality business reports for
archiving or printing, and uses PDF::API2 to render directly to PDF.

Supported features:

- html-table-like layout engine
- text alignment
- basic aggregate functions ( sum, count )
- groups with headers / footers
- page headers / footers ( incomplete but functional )

Upcoming features:

- colour support, including cell background colouring
- image support
- multiple rendering operations to render unlimited sections ( ie
different data sets )

Requirements:

- PDF::API2
- Number::Format

You can download a copy from http://entropy.homelinux.org/PDF-ReportWriter/

Enjoy.

And sorry for the mildly off-topic post. I'm sure there are people in
each list who would be interested O:-)

Comments / patches welcome.

Dan
