I want to display an image (with help of iReport) like in the attached file. I want to display it in the first page also. How can i design this?
use Background section in IReport to add your image. and in all other sections use left margin for all elements so that image will not overlap with other elements.
use this sample code below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jasperReport xmlns="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/xsd/jasperreport.xsd" name="bgreport" language="groovy" pageWidth="595" pageHeight="842" columnWidth="555" leftMargin="20" rightMargin="20" topMargin="20" bottomMargin="20">
<property name="ireport.zoom" value="0.9090909090909102"/>
<property name="ireport.x" value="0"/>
<property name="ireport.y" value="637"/>
