hi !

i would like to write a server side python script that generate .pdf 
documents.

for the moment i have Python 2.7 installed server side
and matplolib installed server side too.

A simple script that create a simple plot and generate a .png picture
works.

this is the script i use :

#-------------------------------------------

# to access standard output :

import sys



# select a non-GUI backend :

import matplotlib

matplotlib.use('Agg')
#matplotlib.use("cairo.pdf")

#matplotlib.use('PDF')




# import plotting module :

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt



# generate the plot :

plt.plot([1,2,3,2,3,4])


# print the content type (what's the data type)

# the new line is embedded, using '\n' notation :
print "Content-Type: image/png\n"
# print "Content-Type: image/PDF\n"
# print "Content-type: application/pdf"



# output directly to webserver, as a png file
  :
plt.savefig(sys.stdout, format='png')


# plt.savefig(sys.stdout, format='PDF')



# plt.savefig( "test.pdf", format='pdf'  )

#-----------------------------------------------

I am wondering how to do the same thing but with sending a pdf file 
instead of
a png picture. (the # are for all the things i tried)

Does someone know ?

thanks.

Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized
environment for deploying applications. Does it make network security 
easier or more difficult to achieve? Read this whitepaper to separate the 
two and get a better understanding.
