Reportlab is popular for this kind of tasks, but it doesn't work well with non-latin fonts. webkit2pdf seems to be doing a good job of creating pdf from a web page and it handles non-latin fonts well. It is available as an apt package on ubuntu. Anand -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web.py" group.
