Are you adding "self" to the parameter list of the external method
object in Zope?  You shouldn't be.

Just make it the first parameter in the external method _code_.  Don't
change the external method object or the DTML code that calls it.

Let's see where that gets us...

PS - On a tangent, it's a really good idea to get in the habit of giving
your functions specific, descriptive names (like "create_pdf()") rather
than naming them after a module they import or using common terms like
"run()" (a name which is used elsewhere in the language).  This makes
troubleshoot easier and reduces the odds that you'll accidentally
encounter a namespace collision.
