Report writer for Cocoa?

Namaste!

I could be missing the obvious, however, my question is whether a report
writer tool (like Crystal Reports or MS Access, by way of example) exists
for Cocoa?

I Googled around for a bit tyring to find something (other than ReportMill).

I've looked at (and read) the printing-relevant Apple dox.  I've read the
relevant chapter in Hillegass' book too.  I can see how much work writing
pretty reports is going to be.

Unless...

I missed a point concerning an NSView - it knows about PDF, etc.

The dox don't really go into this much, so here's a follow-on question to
the first:

If I take the time to draw out a view in IB with all my fields, etc., will
that print as-is?  This, then, would become the report writer, right?

I'm looking for good, solid advice on creating reports.  I do have some
graphics I'd like to include in my reports, but most are lists, and some are
lists with child details too.

Many thanks in advance (and I hope this isn't a Help Vampire question)!!!

Peace, Love, and Light,
