Yes, ReportLab is quite a good PDF library for Python. I used it as the main underlying component in my xtopdf toolkit - see: http://www.dancingbison.com/products.html For most general uses, ReportLab is good choice. You might want to check out xtopdf if your needs are somewhat simple, mainly needing to convert text (from any source - plain text files, CSV, DBF, TDV, XLS (limited support), or other sources) to PDF - as it provides a slightly easier to use API for people who are not familiar with ReportLab. This article should help you use xtopdf for the above-mentioned purposes: http://www.packtpub.com/article/Using_xtopdf xtopdf doesn't support images as of now, nor any sophisticated formatting - you'll have to use ReportLab if you need that. Both ReportLab (the open source version) and xtopdf are released under the BSD license - so you can use them for any purpose you want. Good luck!
