If I use reportlab within a Python module in Zope, how should I make the 
interface between Zope and Python function:
1°) Creating a local file in the python function and returning a string which 
will be used to create a anchor tag.
2°) Something more special, like returning a canvas object which can be handle 
by Zope as a normal Zope object.
