Take a look at this devShare: http://www.birt-exchange.org/org/devshare/deploying-birt-reports/298-2.2-birt-tag-library/

It will point you to a blog showing how to use the tag library to embed BIRT reports into JSP.

If you need help getting started on designing a report, take a look at this blog.

It goes through creating your first report.

For deploying the web viewer, which has export to PDF functionality, you'll need to download the runtime and copy the WebViewerExample to an app server. From here, you can use the tag library, which is described in the link I posted above to embed the report viewer into JSP. With the viewer embedded, you'll have the button allowing you to export the report to PDF.

There are also several tutorials in BIRT help (at least with the all in one 4.2.1 which is the current free version). They are extremely helpfully.

Be aware that BIRT is a powerful tool, there is LOTS to learn because there is LOTS it can do.
