The document discusses SQL Developer's reporting feature, which is one of the most powerful yet least utilized features. It provides an overview of what reports are in SQL Developer, including that they can display SQL/PLSQL output in grids, charts, graphs, and basic HTML. It also summarizes some of the key capabilities of reports such as being definable once but run against any connection, optional user prompts, exporting to PDF, and being available via command line. The document encourages users to take advantage of this underutilized reporting feature.
