I was going to suggest looking at a Java-based system called Jasper reports, which we got into because we found ourselves spending too much time writing ReportLab scripts to generate PDFs (Jasper has a wysiwyg interface and connects to databases directly).
However, seeing Chris' email reminded me of RML, which was designed by the ReportLab guys and *much* easier to use than ReportLab itself. We looked into that and were very interested, but the licencing fee was too high for us (the RL guys do a lot of work for finance houses, and they have plenty of cash). I don't think TinyRML is as powerful as RML, but you can't beat the price! Conrad, I think you should definitely look at Chris' solution - we've done a *lot* of work in ReportLab and as Kenneth says, it's not trivial, whereas Chris has made it all look easy ;) I particularly like the fact that the PDF templates (in RML format) are django templates - it reinforces the idea that django can do stuff other than HTML.
