RE: Generating RTF with Python

2005-04-14 Thread Sells, Fred
Apache fop does a good job of combining xslt+xml to generate pdf; the spec
says it does RTF, but I have not tried it.  Although fop is java, you can
run it as a (java) executable, so you could run it as a command from python.
It is almost as good as reportlab's stuff.

 This includes an html2rtf converter, which I access from python via
 popen and temporary files. Not high-level, not very sexy ... ;-(


I looked at this a while ago, which might be a starter.

I'll use http://www.tug.org/ or a smaller solution
http://lout.sourceforge.net/ together with one of many Python template
solutions to generate to generate reports.

Don't remember why I didn't spent much time on that. Sombody has
experience with pyrtf on an production project (is it stable ;-))
