Hi János, Reportlab is a very complete PDF library, but it is not very simple, and does not have shortcuts for what you need to do. You'd have to come up with the code to get a fishbone diagram from the textfile. But it does help you with the PDF.
There are some graphing packages, but they're most for scientific graphs. Like http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/ Hope that helps, Hugo János Juhász wrote: > Dear All, > > does someone know any python based solution to draw a > cause-effect diagram into PDF from a simple textfile ? > > It is also called a Fishbone Diagram, because of its shape, > or an Ishikawa Chart, after its originator, Kaoru Ishikawa > I feel, it can be converted from a structure like this. > > Title > Effect > Cause1 > Secundary > Tertiary > Tertiary > Cause2 > Secundary > Tertiary > Cause3 > Secundary > Tertiary > > It is probably a simple function. > > > > Yours sincerely, > ______________________________ > Janos Juhasz > _______________________________________________ > Tutor maillist - [email protected] > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor > _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
