Package Information

Description:

ReportLab is the time-proven, ultra-robust open-source engine for creating complex, data-driven PDF documents and custom vector graphics. It's free, open-source, and written in Python. The package sees 50,000+ downloads per month, is part of standard Linux distributions, is embedded in many products, and was selected to power the print/export feature for Wikipedia. The ReportLab Toolkit has evolved over the years in direct response to the real-world reporting needs of large institutions. The library implements three main layers: A graphics canvas API that 'draws' PDF pages A charts and widgets library for creating reusable data graphics. A page layout engine - PLATYPUS ("Page Layout and TYPography Using Scripts") - which builds documents from elements such as headlines, paragraphs, fonts, tables and vector graphics. The open-source ReportLab Toolkit provides the core of our commercial product, ReportLab PLUS, which generates PDF at higher speed and allows use of our smart XML-based templating language RML. ReportLab PLUS contains significant upgrades over the open-source library that allows for a much faster development cycle. If you are putting substantial time into building a solution please consider the commercial version; it is faster, does more, and the revenues directly support ongoing development. You can trial ReportLab PLUS for free.
