Hi Bo, My bad. I didn't mean that HTMLDoc wouldn't work on Linux, just that the 'b' parameter to popen2 probably isn't the problem, as it is the default in the Linux python library. I've had good success with HTMLDoc for most projects. I do use ReportLab for database type reports, but not where I already have HTML code generated as HTMLDoc does a much better job of that. It does not support CSS however, so I sometimes have to generate alternate HTML using the <FONT> tag and other "standard" HTML constructs. You're right about parsing with Reportlab. I originally started using HTMLDoc when some of our users began embedding HTML in content and it became more and more difficult to handle the tags in Reportlab. I'm not sure if Unicode will cause you a problem in HTMLDoc as I've not had to use it. Reportlab and HTMLDoc are the only PDF generation tools I've used and I don't know of any others.

If you're on Linux or Unix, this probably isn't the answer.
Have you good solution to use Unicode with it? I would not like to start coding a parser with ReportLab. But if no solution, I will... :/
