Wolfibolfi's outing in > http://www.informatik-forum.at/showpost.php?p=206342&postcount=10 I generate docbook and convert that to rtf. I generate the docbook from my pdx markup: http://www.seanet.com/~hgg9140/comp/index.html#L007 If you go this route, your python code is actually writing pdx, and you need a 2 step conversion (pdx2docbook.py, then openjade for the xml-to-rtf step). -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] 6-6M21 BCA CompArch Design Engineering Phone: (425) 294-4718 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
