I hope so. But in the interim, I have used ZpdfDocument ( thanks
Gaaros ), with fairly good results. It probably isn't as
configurable as using ReportLab. But, it got the job done.

Tom,

I can't give a working example, it's on a server at work,
but integrating zope and reportlab is easy.
I tried it because I needed a proof of concept and did
did nothing advanced, but I got zope to return a pdf which
was always created on the fly. 
If your interested I'll post/send that small example.


Take a look at 
http://www.zope.org/Members/jdavid/TimetableTag/
for a product which utilizes reportlab

or search the reportlab mailing list for zope
http://www.egroups.com/messagesearch/reportlab-users?query=zope

cheers,
oliver

[Zope] Creating PDF's

2001-01-20 Thread Tom Deprez

Hi,

I read in Itamar's 'A Developers Guide to learning Zope' about 'Reportlab'.
It is a python library to create pdf files. Is there somebody among here who
already used this library with zope? And is it possible to give a little
example in how we can use it with zope?

Thanks in advance,
Tom.
