Hi group, I've released a software package named PDFXMLRPC. It consists of a server and a client. Using them, you can do client-server PDF creation from text, over the Internet or your intranet. It runs over XML-RPC and uses HTTP as the transport. It can work with any available port, including the standard HTTP port 80, or any other allowed and available one.
The server is written in Python and uses xtopdf (also written by me), XML-RPC (from the standard Python library), ReportLab (the open source version) and Python. The client is written in Python and uses XML-RPC. PDFXMLRPC can be downloaded from here: http://www.dancingbison.com/PDFXMLRPC.zip That zip file contains the server, the client, a README.txt file and the license. (NOTE: The README.txt file contains a line saying to download the PDFXMLRPC package from http://www.dancingbison.com/PDFXMLRPCClientAndServer.zip - that line is a mistake, left over from an earlier unreleased version. If you have the README.txt file, it means that you have already downloaded and extracted the correct file - which is PDFXMLRPC.zip, so just ignore that wrong line. I'll update the README.txt file to correct that error soon.) The README.txt file gives details on how to install the software needed, and how to run it. PDFXMLRPC is released under the BSD license. I welcome any feedback on it. I would like to thank the Python and ReportLab guys for creating great software. Thanks, Vasudev Ram Dancing Bison Enterprises http://www.dancingbison.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
