Thank you Jeff for the help. I was actually using ReportLab along with Pisa, I had posted a similar question on their forum as the demo for this (http://www.xhtml2pdf.com/ demo) seems to be hosted in Google App Engine.
I will try the ReportLab developers also and hope they have a solution. Meanwhile can I go ahead and upload the libraries to Google App Engine and convert it to Zip and reduce the number of files later? Thanks, Arun Shanker Prasad.
