I was quite exited when I saw this pdf possibility but I can't seem
to get it to work. I'm running Zope on my Win NT4.0. But I have some
questions 'bout it:
1. When I d/l the zpdf file it seems that something is missing. Where
exactly should I put it ?
2. Is it a precompiled python file ?
3. Should'nt it have some kind of extension to it to work in a windoze env ?
>Though I agree a packed up version would be nice (I'm a windows user, so
>pythonpoint is ok for me) Any chance the python-powerpoint script could be
>made public anyway?
