Reporting/Printing engine

Anyone know of a good reporting/printing engine I can use in Cocoa? (Has to be free, since my app is free.)


My problem is that printing in my app is fundamentally different from viewing. In my app, you want to limit how much you see at once. When you print, you actually want to print almost everything, because the whole idea then is to take all the data with you so you can carry it around. So the whole "just lay it out in InterfaceBuilder" doesn't work for me. Plus as someone else said, bindings are so elegant that doing anything less elegant seems like going backwards.

I looked briefly at XSLT but while its easy to find the processors, I couldn't find any sort of graphical template editor. I've even considered writing out Pages files from iWork, since they're just XML...
