It's free, + open-source, and written in Python. The package sees 50,000+ downloads per + month, is part of standard Linux distributions, is embedded in many + products, and was selected to power the print/export feature for Wikipedia. + + The ReportLab Toolkit has evolved over the years in direct response to the + real-world reporting needs of large institutions. The library implements + three main layers: + + A graphics canvas API that 'draws' PDF pages A charts and widgets + library for creating reusable data graphics. A page layout engine - + PLATYPUS ("Page Layout and TYPography Using Scripts") - which builds + documents from elements such as headlines, paragraphs, fonts, tables + and vector graphics. + + The open-source ReportLab Toolkit provides the core of our commercial + product, ReportLab PLUS, which generates PDF at higher speed and allows use + of our smart XML-based templating language RML. ReportLab PLUS contains + significant upgrades over the open-source library that allows for a much + faster development cycle. If you are putting substantial time into + building a solution please consider the commercial version; it is faster, + does more, and the revenues directly support ongoing development. You + can trial ReportLab PLUS for free. + </longdescription> <upstream> + <bugs-to>mailto:reportlab-us...@lists2.reportlab.com</bugs-to> + <doc lang="en">https://www.reportlab.com/dev/docs</doc> <remote-id type="pypi">reportlab</remote-id> </upstream> </pkgmetadata>
