[Zope] Newbie: Creating PDF Documents on the fly in Zope

[Ashley Lloyd]

I have a few pages in Zope generating info gained from an Interbase DB. The 
pages are fine, except we also want a user to be able to click a button on 
these pages and generate a PDF document for printing, looking pretty much 
the same but with all the necessary page breaks and associated 
headers/footers.

I have looked around, and there are a couple of products that look 
promising, mostly so PIDDLE.

Being a complete newbie to Zope, though, I really don't know where to start 
with it. I read that SPING was a product designed for such things, and 
extracted that into products. It appears as a product in Zope, but it is 
basically empty. There don't appear to be any documents designed for idiots, 
so I'm hoping someone out there can help me .. ?!?

Info on the Zope version I'm running:

Zope Version  (Zope 2.5.1 (binary release, python 2.1, win32-x86), python 
2.1.3, win32)
Python Version  2.1.3 (#35, Apr 8 2002, 17:47:50) [MSC 32 bit (Intel)]
System Platform  win32


TIA
Ashley
