sunil tech wrote: Hi all... is there any way to convert any file (eg: document files image files) to .pdf? If the file is printable, print it to a PDF gateway that generates a PS or PDF file. If it is a Microsoft Office document, or similar, then install OpenOffice or LibreOffice and use it to convert to PDF. If it's not printable, then your question doesn't make sense. What would an ISO or EXE or ZIP file look like converted to PDF? But I wonder whether you bothered to google for python pdf first? The very first link is a comprehensive review of installing and using a PDF generator from Python. -- Steven ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
