RE: Generating RTF with Python
Apache fop does a good job of combining xslt+xml to generate pdf; the spec says it does RTF, but I have not tried it. Although fop is java, you can run it as a (java) executable, so you could run it as a command from python. It is almost as good as reportlab's stuff. -Original Message- From: Max M [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 31, 2005 11:56 AM To: python-list@python.org Subject: Re: Generating RTF with Python Axel Straschil wrote: > Hello! > > >>does anyone know of a high-level solution to produce RTF from Python=20 >>(something similar to >>Reportlab for producing PDF)? > > Spend hours of googeling and searching, also in this NG, about two > months ago.

Hello! > I looked at this a while ago, which might be a starter. > http://pyrtf.sourceforge.net/ Don't remember why I didn't spent much time on that. Sombody has experience with pyrtf on an production project (is it stable ;-)) Lg, AXEL. -- "Aber naja, ich bin eher der Forentyp."

RE: Generating RTF with Python
I'll use http://www.tug.org/ or a smaller solution http://lout.sourceforge.net/ together with one of many Python template solutions to generate to generate reports.

Generating RTF with Python
Hi, does anyone know of a high-level solution to produce RTF from Python (something similar to Reportlab for producing PDF)? Thanks, Andreas pgptlX6o8zD33.pgp Description: PGP signature -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
