Thanks everyone. The report lab solution looks the best, I think they
will be fine with PDF. I'm a bit confused though, is z3c.rml a package
that gives one an open source alternative to RML, and RML is a way of
making the reports from an xml based markup *instead* of using the raw
report lab api?

Specifically, I'm trying to make a packing slip/invoice hybrid. Any
pointers to examples would be great, and in the meantime I'll keep
googling. =)
