I need to create some type of output, preferably pdf, which is an array of 2
across by 8 long
of one custom barcode label with some other text components oriented around the
barcode.
Anyone know the best approach for this? Generating the barcode looks trivial, I
am just not
sure which package might offer the remaining functionality easily.
Thanks for any pointers!

For creating PDFs from Python, consider:
ReportLab: Open Source Python Libraries for PDF creation
at http://www.reportlab.com/software/opensource/
I've used it successfully.
