You can use pyfpdf or reportlab. I let Mariano explain how to use pyfpdf. To use reportlab just unzip the pure python implementation in web2py/ site-packages
import it in any of your actions. call if from your controller actions and/or view. (p.s. web2py actions also can return a file-like object but that is beside the point, you can use cStringIO.StringIO) On Nov 12, 5:59 am, Tiago Rosa <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi folks, > > I need to generate PDF reports from my GAE-deployed application.
