Actuate offers two report designers that offer features in addition to those in the Eclipse Designers. (For a complete list of standard features click here.

BIRT Designer Pro is a designer with additional features that works within the Eclipse IDE. If desired, the Eclipse Workbench Plug-in can add the functionality of the Eclipse IDE such as creating and manipulating Eclipse projects, working with source code control, and invoking other tools such as Java development tools.  JavaScript, Java and Eclipse-like IDE capabilities can be used to further control report layout, data access, data transformation and report rendering.

BIRT Designer Pro is available through a standalone Windows installer or as a plug-in to
your existing Eclipse IDE.

BIRT Designer is a designer with additional features from Actuate that works outside the Eclipse IDE.  It is for report developers who want a stand-alone report designer.  JavaScript can be used to custom report functionality, behavior and business logic without compiling.
