Example 1:

Use the ArcGIS Online print task within the report to generate a printer-ready version of the map.

require(['jimu/dijit/Report', 'jimu/dijit/PageUtils'], function(Report, PageUtils){
             var report = new Report({
            reportLogo: "http://myserver/images/CompanyLogo.png",
            footNotes: "Report Generated by My Department",
            printTaskUrl: "http://utility.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/Utilities/PrintingTools/GPServer/Export%20Web%20Map%20Task",
            reportLayout: {
              "pageSize": PageUtils.PageSizes.A4,
              "orientation": PageUtils.Orientation.Landscape
            },
            styleSheets: ["http://myserver/css/reportDijitOverrides.css"]
          });
          
          var data = [];
          data.push({
            addPageBreak: true,
            type: "map",
            map: this.map
          }

          ...

          report.print("MyTitle", data);

    });

Example 2:

Use a custom print task within the report to generate a printer-ready version of the map based on the defined ArcGIS PrintTemplate.

require(['jimu/dijit/Report', 'jimu/dijit/PageUtils', 'esri/tasks/PrintTemplate'], function(Report, PageUtils, PrintTemplate){
          var report = new Report({
            reportLogo: "http://myserver/images/CompanyLogo.png",
            footNotes: "Report Generated by My Department",
            printTaskUrl: " http://myserver/arcgis/rest/services/Utilities/PrintingTools/GPServer/Export%20Web%20Map%20Task",
            reportLayout: {
              "pageSize": PageUtils.PageSizes.A4,
              "orientation": PageUtils.Orientation.Landscape
            },
            styleSheets: ["http://myserver/css/reportDijitOverrides.css"]
          });

          var printTemplate = new PrintTemplate(); 
          printTemplate.layout = "Custom Template From My Print Service";
          printTemplate.format = "PNG32";
         
          var data = [];
          data.push({
            addPageBreak: true,
            type: "map",
            map: this.map,
            printTemplate: printTemplate
          }

          ...

          report.print("MyTitle", data);

    });

Data objects

MAP

A map object provides a way for you print an ArcGIS JavaScript map object in the report. When using a custom print service, provide an ArcGIS PrintTemplate to the MAP object to define the appropriate layout options to be used in the report.

{
  addPageBreak: Boolean,
  type: String,
  map: Object
}
 
{
  addPageBreak: true,
  type: "map",
  map: this.map
}

TABLE

A table object provides a way for you print rows and columns of data in the report.

{
  title: String,
  addPageBreak: Boolean,
  type: String,
  tableCols: Number,
  data: {
    showRowIndex: Boolean,
    rows: Array,
    cols: Array
  }
}
 
 
{
  title: “Impact Area by State”,
  addPageBreak: false,
  type: "table",
  tableCols: 3,
  data: {
    showRowIndex: false,
    rows: [[“Colorado”, “14526”, “45”],[“California”, “32076”, “67”]],
    cols: [“Name”, “Area”, “Count”]
  }
}

HTML

An HTML object provides a way for you to add HTML elements to the report.

{
  title: String
  type: String,
  data: String
}
 
{
  title: "Distribution of Impact by State",
  type: "html",
  data: '<img id="chartImage" style="width: 250px; height: 200px;" src="http://myserver/images/graphic.png">'
}

NOTE

A note object provides an editable text area that can be updated dynamically by the user in the report preview window prior to printing.

{
  type: String,
}
 
{
  type: "note",
}

The following is the list of CSS class selectors that can be overridden to control aspects of report styling.

Defaults are provided with the HTML template at jimu/dijit/templates/ReportTemplate.html.
