Are you sure you want to use PNG? PNG is an image format, and
converting a Text to image actually reduces the quality of output and
increases the file size. It will also prevent people from using it for
copy+paste, etc.. IMHO, a PDF would be better.

Not sure of a Python lib, but GS has the following tools that you can
use from a shell script:

text2ps --> convert a text file into a PostScript file
ps2png --> Convert a PostScript file into PS.
