Generating Adobe FDF files from Zope / Python
Hello, I need to generate FDF files from form data submitted to my Zope server (running on RH6.2). I know there is an SDK from Adobe that will let me do this in C, but I've very little C experience and I've never written a Python extension to a C library. Has anyone already done this in Python? Any pointers are appreciated. Thanks. Eric.

I know there are those who have done this using the reportlab library. http://www.reportlab.com/ -Tim -- Tim Wilson | Visit Sibley online: | Check out: Henry Sibley HS | http://www.isd197.org | http://www.zope.org W.

Hi Tim, I dug around ReportLab's website and their mailing list archives and didn't see anything on generating FDF files. I only found "PageCatcher" which is a comercial product that extracts objects from existing PDF files for use in the (OS) ReportLab product. If ReportLab is able to generate FDF's, that'd be great! Can you point me to some documentation on how it's done? Thanks, Eric.
We use reportlab on Zope 2.3.3 on RH 7 to generate billing reports on-the-fly works great.
