I recently started using sphinx to produce HTML and PDF output for  
some documentation at work.  I have a nice HTML template, but am using  
the default PDF rendering because I don't know enough about LaTeX to  
have a clue how to change them.

I would have liked to have another option for PDF generation,  
especially if it gave me more control over the output.  Would creating  
templates for ReportLab be "easier" than for LaTeX?
