I suggest you look into LaTex http://www.latex-project.org/ especially if your report is scientific in nature. You can produce .ps and .pdf output from a source document, which is markup text. You can easily create an index, table of contents, equations and figures with captions, and bibliograpy (all with cross referencing). You can also import .eps files for graphics. If you missed Roger Leigh's post (Re: GTK Coding Conventions, gtk-app-devel-list Digest, Vol 12, Issue 29) go visit his link and download his tarfile: http://people.debian.org/~rleigh/gtk/ogcalc/ His tutorial is in .pdf format from the source file ogcalc.tex. He was able to import .png images into his document. View ogcalc.pdf to see the results. Note: His markup prose is rather sophisticated. I am sure you can get by with simpler methods. And there are plenty of books to help you learn.
