Python PDF library [closed]

Answer 1

The two that come to mind are:

• pyPdf2
• PDFMiner

Answer 2

I already have used Reportlab in one project.

Answer 3

There is also http://appyframework.org/pod.html which takes a LibreOffice or OpenOffice document as template and can generate pdf, rtf, odt ... To generate pdf it requires a headless OOo on some server. Documentation is concise but relatively complete. http://appyframework.org/podWritingTemplates.html If you need advice, the author is rather helpful.

Answer 4

Reportlab. There is an open source version, and a paid version which adds the Report Markup Language (an alternative method of defining your document).
