Description Cristian Popescu CLA 2006-03-22 16:13:25 EST 
There isn't any possibility to generate a table of contents in a specific BIRT report, to generate the tables of contents in a particular page (page number X). I intend to create a report that is generated as PDF format, has on the second page the table of contents with the page number of each subreport within my report. Currently there is no support for specifying page number on which the TOC should show up.

This enhancement is to add a TOC report item, so that it can be placed in location (pages) that specified by user.

Supporting a generic ToC report item has layout issue.   Maybe we only need to output ToC as separate pages before the actual report content.
Comment 6 Peter Fopma CLA 2009-02-06 03:02:14 EST 
When implementing the ToC feature, keep in mind that the page numbering
from the PDF-output is needed - not the page numbering from the design
(the HTML-pagenumbering).
We implemented a ToC from the rptDocument but it is useless since
the HTML-pagenumbers is used which does not relate to the pagenumbers of
the PDF.
