We mustn't use this line:

> fromZope.close()

It works ONLY if I don't close fromZope, otherwise MyPILImage is unuseable
because PIL seems to use the provided file id, not duplicate it in some
way.

THANKS FOR ALL !

[OT] do you know why my transparent GIF appears with a pink background on
screen and paper when  printed through ReportLab ? I've already noticed
this problem but can't explain it.

bye, and thanks again
