Ed, never worked with templating systems, but reading the examples I
have a few doubts regarding their capabilities, maybe you know the
answer to them?
In the example they define <title> items, but will the template generate
a new title on top of every page?
Can you define page sizes, page footers, group headers and footers,
group totals, running totals?

Thanks Ed. I had seen that before - but as there was no GUI, I ignored
it.
I need the GUI for absolute positioning of objects - similar to
VFP/Crystal/Jasper report builders.
Will have another look at it.
While I don’t do much reporting in Python these days, I would
recommend a simple templating system like Jinja or Mako to create the
HTML output, and an HTML-PDF converter to create the output. I did a
quick google around and found this article:
http://pbpython.com/pdf-reports.html . It looks pretty straightforward.
