Configuring the default export options for a BIRT report
You can export a BIRT report to various formats from the web viewer. These formats include docx, pptx, xls, xlsx, pdf, ps, doc, and ppt. You can configure the default export options by creating a RenderDefaults.cfg file that contains name-value pairs for the appropriate options. You must create a separate RenderDefaults.cfg file for each format. For example, when you export a BIRT report to XLSX, RenderDefaults.cfg can set Enable pivot table to false by default. Place RenderDefaults.cfg in the following locations:
*
On iServer, place RenderDefaults.cfg in <SERVER_HOME>\Jar\BIRT\platform\plugins\com.actuate.birt.report.engine.emitter.config.<EMITTER_TYPE>_<RELEASE_NUMBER>.jar, for example C:\Program Files (x86)\Actuate11SP4\iServer\Jar\BIRT\platform\plugins\com.actuate.birt.report.engine.emitter.config.xls_11.0.4.v20120810.jar. When you create or modify RenderDefaults.cfg, you must restart iServer.
*
On the desktop, place RenderDefaults.cfg in <BDPRO_HOME>\eclipse\plugins\com.actuate.birt.report.engine.emitter.config.<EMITTER_TYPE>_<RELEASE_NUMBER>.jar, for example C:\Program Files (x86)\Actuate11\BRDPro\eclipse\plugins\com.actuate.birt.report.engine.emitter.config.xls_11.0.4.v20120810.jar.
