Hi,

Is it possible to add an editable text field with BIRT ?
If not, is it possible to create an extension with this functionality ?

Thanks Smile

You could use HTML within a text box to create an editable field.

Yes but my report is generated to PDF format and the text field doesn't appear with this format.

For PDF, I think you'll have to make changes to the emitter to get something like this. You could always log an enhancement request for an option like this, for a text box. You also might look into using iText to do this, after the creation of the PDF.
