Steve,
Just a question: Do you make an html/xml page and let reportlab translate it or do you make 2 converters. eg for instance you query across a zsqlmethod and display it in html and for the pdf file, you interate across the same zsqlmethod but create reportlad code.
or
do you query across a zsqlmethod and display it in html and then the pdf file is created from that page.
In the case you describe, I would take the former route. The application I'm using Zope and ReportLab for isn't like this though. I'm generating detailed multi-page PDF reports from data in the ZODB. I'm generating entirely different reports in HTML. -- Steve Alexander Software Engineer Cat-Box limited
