Here's a decent quick tutorial:

Note that what you are proposing is to create an HTML version of the report
and a separate PDF version using ReportLab. Otherwise, if you want to make
what would be an HTML report download as a PDF document, use @Mike's
solution.

Good Luck,

Indeed Mark's solution is more elegant than mine if you want to use the same view as both html or pdf depending on a switch. My solution creates two independend views with the same arguments, one of them produces always html, and the other pdf. I wanted it that way since these two views are aesthetically different.
Depending on your design, choose the one most comfortable.
