I'd second that approach. I have used Jasper in conjunction with IBMi at a few jobs and have always been impressed with the ease of use.

Have you ever considered Jasper Reports Server ?
Jasper Reports create pixel perfect documents.
I have used it successfully since 2007.

Hi Nathan, thanks.
What we are looking for is something like that but with something more and, especially, oriented to document production rather than report production.
We have been using for many years a combination of freemarker (see
https://freemarker.apache.org/) and xdocreport (see
https://github.com/opensagres/xdocreport) with excellent results.
The best part was the support of Libre Office to edit documents (templates) even if it's not integrated in the browser it's acceptable since the document's final quality was really good.
We recently had problems because xdocreport is not very up to date and some documents have errors and it is not easy to correct the code at that level, so we too have thought about using HTML and freemarker but I can't find a wysiwyg editor that integrates freemarker syntax (and datasource) with HTML5.
ReportBro has some nice futures (a javascript editor and a wide range of options as datasource) but since I don't know the company I'm looking for refrences.
Best regards
