BIRT iHub F-Type™ is a free report server for BIRT developers creating smaller‑scale departmental applications. It is limited only by the capacity of output it can deliver on a daily basis. When the application reaches its maximum daily output, additional capacity can be purchased.
No. BIRT F-Type works with content that has been created either using open source BIRT Designer or BIRT Designer Pro with the latter available under Actuate’s commercial license. Both BIRT Designers are available for download from this location.
I am new to BIRT; can I still use BIRT F-Type?
Yes. You'll need to download a version of BIRT Designer to get started. BIRT F-Type works with open source and commercial BIRT. See the comparison table to decide which is right for you. For help using BIRT Designer, see the BIRT Designer Design Guide. Once you have a design or two completed, you'll be ready for BIRT F-Type.
